The application of calcium peroxide (CaO2) activated with ferrous ion chelate sodium citrate （TCD）to stimulate the degradation of trichloroethylene (TCE) was investigated. The experimental results show that the removal efficiency of TCE increases first and then decreases with the increase of CaO2 and Na2S2O8 dosage; the chelation ratio of Fe(II)/TCD, too much or too little, will affect the removal efficiency of TCE; when the molar ratio of CaO2/ Fe(II)/ TCD/ TCE is 18/6/6/1, the removal efficiency of TCE is the highest, reaching 97.99% within 200Min. The results demonstrated that the technique of CaO2 activated with ferrous ion is a highly promising technique in in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) remediation in TCE contaminated sites.
