Abstract The Fenton reaction refers to the reaction in which ferrous ions (Fe 2+ ) produce hydroxyl radicals and other reactive oxidizing substances by decomposing hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ). This paper reviews the mechanism, application system, and materials employed in the Fenton reaction including conventional homogeneous and non‐homogeneous Fenton reactions as well as photo‐, electrically‐, ultrasonically‐, and piezoelectrically‐triggered Fenton reactions, and summarizes the applications in the degradation of soil oil pollutions, landfill leachate, textile wastewater, and antibiotics from a practical point of view. The mineralization paths of typical pollutant are elucidated with relevant case studies. The paper concludes with a summary and outlook of the further development of Fenton‐like reactions.
