Abstract: The organic compounds contaminated soil substantially threatens the growth of plants and food safety. In this study, we synthesis zero-valent bimetallic Fe/Cu catalysts for the degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP) in soils with persulfate (PS) in combination of organic surfactants and exploring the main environmental impact factors. The kinetic experiments show that the 5% (mass) dosage of Fe/Cu exhibits a higher degradation efficiency (86%) of DCP in soils, and the degradation efficiency of DCP increases with the increase of the initial PS concentration. Acidic conditions are favorable for the DCP degradation in soils. More importantly, the addition of Tween-80, and Triton-100 can obviously desorb DCP from the soil surface, which enhances the degradation efficiency of DCP in soils by Fe/Cu and PS reaction system. Furthermore, the Quenching experiments demonstrate that SO4-· and ·OH are the predominant radicals for the degradation of DCP during the Fe/Cu and PS reaction system as well as non-radical also exist. The findings of this work provide an effective method for remediating DCP from soils.
