Abstract
⺠The herbicide MCPA is quickly mineralized by solar photoelectro-Fenton. ⺠A CCRD allowed the optimization of current, Fe2+ content and solution pH. ⺠TOC, MCE and energy consumption are described by response surface methodology. ⺠Generated hydroxyl radical destroys MCPA and its aromatic oxidation by-products. ⺠UV light of solar irradiation photolyzes the Fe(III)-carboxylate complexes produced.
