The chlorobenzene (CB) degradation performances by various oxidants, including hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), nanoscale calcium peroxide (nCaO2) and sodium percarbonate (SPC), activated with ferrous iron (Fe(II)) were investigated and thoroughly compared. The results showed that all tested systems had strong abilities to degrade CB. The CB removal rate increased with increasing dosages of oxidants or Fe(II) because the generation of reactive oxygen species could be promoted with the chemical dosages' increase. Response surface and contour plots showed that CB could achieve a better removal performance at the same H2O2 and Fe(II) molar content, but the Fe(II) dosage was higher than that of oxidants in the nCaO2 and SPC systems. The optimal molar ratios of H2O2/Fe(II)/CB, nCaO2/Fe(II)/CB and SPC /Fe(II)/CB were 5.2/7.6/1, 8/8/1, and 4.5/8/1, respectively, in which 98.1%, 98%, and 96.4% CB removals could be obtained in 30 min reaction. The optimal pH condition was around 3, while CB removal rates were less than 20% in all three systems when the initial pH was adjusted to 9. The oxidative hydroxyl radicals (HO•) and singlet oxygen (1O2) had been detected by the electron paramagnetic resonance test. Based upon the results of liquid chromatograph-mass spectrometer analysis, the pathways of CB degradation were proposed, in which 1O2 roles were elaborated innovatively in the CB degradation mechanism. The CB degradation performance was significantly affected in actual groundwater, while increasing the molar ratio of oxidant/Fe(II)/CB was an effective way to overcome the adverse effects caused by the complex of actual groundwater matrix.
