The Fenton method is an effective technology for the removal of organic materials from wastewater. In this work, an induced catalyst Fe₃O₄ was synthesized by a hydrothermal method, and the modulation of the chemical composition of Fe₃O₄ crystals was achieved under the microwave shock method with the same effect as that of calcination treatment. Fe₃O₄ catalyst for the removal of the dye Rhodamine B (RhB) from polluted wastewater under microwave (MW), H₂O₂ system. The results showed that Fe₃O₄ nanomicrospheres prepared by microwave shock exhibited superior catalytic activity under the conditions of 500 W, 0.4 mol/L H₂O₂ and10 mg/L RhB, and the removal rate of RhB reached 98.5% after 10 min. The Fe₃O₄ catalysts also exhibited good stability and degradation efficiency. Electron paramagnetic resonance experiments confirmed that ^•OH plays a major role in the rapid degradation of RhB. Under microwave action, the catalyst produces electron-hole pairs, in which the holes react with OH⁻ produced by water ionisation to form ^•OH, and the microwave-treated Fe₃O₄ produces more active species. Fe³⁺ and Fe²⁺ serve as microwave catalytic activity centers and Fenton catalytic activity centers, respectively. This research demonstrates that optimizing the Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺ ratio significantly enhances the degradation efficiency of RhB. This study presents novel views regarding the mechanism of microwave synergistic catalyst-induced Fenton.
