dc.abstract.enThe radiolytic methods of PFOS decomposition in aqueous solutions investigated in this work for potential environmental applications are based on the use of gamma rays or a beam of accelerated electrons (EB) under different chemical conditions in irradiated solutions. The most active reagents in the employed conditions are hydrated electrons from water radiolysis. There are also %OH and %H radicals which take part in the occurring reactions. In the presence of formate and 2-propanol in irradiated solutions, the reductive radicals derived from them (CO2%−, (CH2)2C%-OH) are able to induce reductive decomposition of PFOS. In turn, in the presence of tert-butanol, the radicals derived from the alcohol and PFOS dimerize forming alkyl-substituted derivatives. The most favorable conditions for irradiation were achieved in neutral deaerated solutions and aerated solutions containing 10mM 2- propanol. In γ-irradiation processes the pseudo-first order rate-constants of PFOS decomposition are 0.0197 min−1 (0.310 kGy−1), and 0.0060 min−1 (0.0947 kGy−1), respectively, under both conditions. Due to a big difference in the dose-rate between the two employed types of radiation (gamma and EB), the values of pseudo-first order rate constants of PFOS decomposition are different, namely 0.0197 min−1 (0.310 kGy−1) and 0.368 s−1 (0.0184 kGy−1), espectively, for γ and EB radiation used for decomposition of 0.1 mg L−1 PFOS in neutral, deaerated solution. The EB-irradiation processes for PFOS decomposition are much more efficient than any other AO/RPs reported so far and can be easily employed at a technological scale for very large volumes of treated solutions. The gamma irradiationbased P FOS decomposition requires smaller absorbed doses and it does not require any external energy input because of the use of the isotope source of radiation.
