Hydrogen Peroxide Environmental Impact
On the Effect of Hydrogen Peroxide on the Environment
Hydrogen peroxide is widely used in this world. However, its impact on the environment cannot be ignored.
Hydrogen peroxide is active and easy to decompose. When it enters the natural environment, if the amount is appropriate, it may be beneficial. The water and oxygen produced by its decomposition are harmless and do not cause major harm to the ecological cycle.
However, if it is poured into the environment in excess, its harm is also apparent. In water bodies, hydrogen peroxide can disturb the survival of aquatic organisms. Its strong oxidizing properties may damage the bodies of plankton in the water and damage its cell structure, making it difficult for them to survive and multiply. And this harm can gradually rise along the food chain, endangering the safety of higher aquatic organisms.
In the soil, hydrogen peroxide can change its chemical properties. It may cause an imbalance in nutrients in the soil and affect the uptake of nutrients by plant roots. Plant growth is blocked, or it may cause changes in vegetation communities, which in turn affects the balance of regional ecology.
Furthermore, hydrogen peroxide volatilizes in the atmosphere. Although it decomposes quickly, under specific conditions, it may chemically react with other substances in the atmosphere, which affects the chemical composition of the atmosphere and has adverse effects on air quality.
To sum up, the impact of hydrogen peroxide on the environment depends on the advantages and disadvantages. Those who use it should review its dosage and control its discharge, so that it can be attributed to a reasonable area, so as to reduce its harm and improve its benefits and ensure the safety of the environment.
