The degradation of 4-chlorophenol(4-CP) by various AOPs(Advanced Oxidation Processes) with continuous feeding of $H_2O_2$, including the ultraviolet/hydrogen peroxide, the Fenton and the photo-Fenton process has been investigated. The photo-Fenton process showed the highest removal efficiency for degradation of 4-chlorophenol than those of other AOPs including the Fenton process and the combined UV process with continuous feeding of $H_2O_2$. In the photo-Fenton process, the optimal experimental condition for 4-CP degradation was obtained at pH 3. Also the 4-CP removal efficiency increased with decreasing of the initial 4-CP concentration. 4-chlorocatechol and 4-chlororesorcinol were identified as photo-Fenton reaction intermediates, and the degradation pathways of 4-CP in the aqueous phase during the photo-Fenton reaction were proposed.
