This paper demonstrated the effects and influencing factors in degrading aniline by gaseous streamer corona plasma along water surface under different discharging gas atmospheres. For aniline with an initial concentration of 100 mg l −1 , the degradation was fastest when the reactor was not ventilated, and the degradation rate is 98.5% under 7.5 min treatment. While the degradation was slowest when Ar was ventilated, the degradation rate is 98.6% after treatment for 60 min. Some active particles were detected using a multi-channel fibre-optic spectrometer during the discharge, such as Ar, OH, N 2 , N 2 + and N. In particular, NO was detected during air discharge. The NO and N 2 + could produce NO 3 − ; then generated nitric acid would affect the pH value of the solution. The intermediate product by N 2 discharge is nitrophenol, and nitrophenol would be converted to p -benzoquinone. The O 2 discharge could produce an intermediate product of aminophenol. The intermediate products in Ar discharge were in small amounts and the final mineralization effect was the best.

. The study combined UV/TiO2 with ultrasonic procedure to degrade azo dye wastewater of Acid Yellow 17. The effects of factors including pH value, initial concentration of dye, and quantities of TiO2, Fe (II), and Fe (III) added on the removal efficiency of azo dye Acid Yellow 17 were investigated. Experimental results revealed significant additive effect attributed to the combination of two procedures under 13-watt UV irradiation and 10-watt ultrasound. Analysis of the catalyst properties indicated no evident changes in the appearance of crystal and TiO2 catalyst by UV/TiO2 combined with ultrasonic procedure. However, the specific surface area was increased by approximately 53%. No effective formation of hydrogen peroxide (ND  1 mg/L) proved that the addition of Fe (II) and Fe (III) failed to induce the Fenton-like reaction effectively. Nevertheless, the addition of Fe ions affected significantly the initial adsorption and the degradation rate of the dye. Moreover, the treatment efficiency of Fe (III) was found to be superior to that of Fe (II) under the same concentration.

The study of divergent ultrasonic degradation of methylene blue in water was carried out by exploring the ultrasonic intensity of the methylene blue, the initial concentration and the degradation rate of the solution pH. The test results show that the degradation rate of methylene blue decreases with the increase of ultrasonic power.The initial concentration of methylene blue solution is in the range of 0.00-10.00 mg/L. The degradation rate of methylene blue increases as the concentration of the solution increases. when the concentration is greater than 10.00mg/L, the concentration increases, and the ultrasonic degradation rate decreases. When the pH value is higher, the degradation rate of the methylene blue solution increases with the increase of pH, and the degradation rate reaches a maximum of 77.89%. The region where the ultrasonic degradation of methylene blue occurs is mainly at the junction of gas-liquid two phases, and is degraded by forming hydrogen peroxide in the cavitation bubbles and decomposing into various highly active radicals. Ultrasound has the advantages of fast, low energy consumption and environmental friendliness.

The photodegradation of atrazine induced by UV-irradiation in aqueous solution was investigated initially. The affecting factors on the photodetradation were studied and described in details such as atrazine initial concentration, temperature, pH value, exposure intensity, oxidant and co-existing substances. It was found that the atrazine initial concentration had no obvious effect on the photodegradation. With the pH value increasing, photodegradation rates decreased. However, we also observed a positive correlation between the degradation rate of atrazine and temperature, exposure intensity and oxidant while the coexisting organic compounds may decelerate photodegradation of the atrazine in water. In this paper, the degradation products had also been confirmed by using LC-MS.

Studies were undertaken to evaluate gaseous pollutants in workplace air within pulp and paper mills and to consider the effectiveness of photo-catalytic treatment of this air. Ambient air at 30 sampling sites in five pulp and paper mills of southern China were sampled and analyzed. The results revealed that formaldehyde and various benzene-based molecules were the main gaseous pollutants at these five mills. A photo-catalytic reactor system with titanium dioxide (TiO2) was developed and evaluated for degradation of formaldehyde, benzene and their mixtures. The experimental results demonstrated that both formaldehyde and benzene in their pure forms could be completely photo-catalytic degraded, though the degradation of benzene was much more difficult than that for formaldehyde. Study of the photo-catalytic degradation kinetics revealed that the degradation rate of formaldehyde increased with initial concentration fitting a first-order kinetics reaction. In contrast, the degradation rate of benzene had no relationship with initial concentration and degradation did not conform to first-order kinetics. The photo-catalytic degradation of formaldehyde-benzene mixtures indicated that formaldehyde behaved differently than when treated in its pure form. The degradation time was two times longer and the kinetics did not reflect a first-order reaction. The degradation of benzene was similar in both pure form and when mixed with formaldehyde.

In this paper, the adsorption and decolorization capability of expanded graphite (EG) on the simulated wastewater containing Acid Orange Ⅱwere studied. The experimental results show that the initial concentration of wastewater, the dosage of EG, the pH value and the temperature all have greater effects on the decolorization ratio of simulated Acid Orange Ⅱ wastewater. The dye- wastewater containing lower concentration(<150 mg/L) of Acid Orange Ⅱ is more suitable to be treated by EG, and approximately 100 mg/L is the preferable concentration. The decolorization ratio increases with the increment of the dosage of EG and the temperature level, but the growth rate obviously decreases at the higher initial concentration. All the decolorization ratios under strong acidic (pH<5) and alkalic (pH>11) conditions are higher than that at the range of 5-11 pH values, the highest value even reaches over 94%, while the decolorization ratio under the latter conditions are only between 75% and 85%.
