This paper aims to review the applications of Fenton based treatments specifically for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons-contaminated soils. An overview of the background and principles of Fenton treatment catalysed by both homogenous (conventional and modified Fenton) and heterogeneous (Fenton-like) catalysts is firstly presented. Laboratory and field soil remediation studies are then discussed in terms of efficiency, kinetics and associated factors. Four main scopes of integrated Fenton treatments, i.e. physical-Fenton, biological-Fenton, electro-Fenton and photo-Fenton are also reviewed in this paper. For each of these integrated remediation technologies, the theoretical background and mechanisms are detailed alongside with achievable removal efficiencies for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in contaminated soils compared to sole Fenton treatment. Finally, the environmental impacts of Fenton based soil treatments are documented and discussed.
Research highlights
► Fenton oxidation is a feasible remediation technology for PAHs.
► For sole Fenton treatments, the main challenge is the high oxidant load necessary.
► Integrated Fenton treatments are developed to address sole Fenton limitations.
► Integrated Fenton treatments will continue to be the focus of future work.
► More research should focus on post-Fenton impacts on soil properties and quality.
