In this paper, photocatalytic degradation processes of different materials are fitted to the first-order kinetic model, second-order kinetic model and fractional first-order kinetic model. Deterministic coefficients are calculated for the evaluation of the validity of these models. The fitting results show clearly that the degradation process can fit the fractional first-order kinetic model in a very good manner. In this way, two material parameters can be well defined. One is the degradation time, which can be used to describe the photocatalytic degradation process quantitatively. Another is the order of the derivative, which could be related to the material’s microstructure.

In this study, reductive dechlorination of DDT compounds by zero-valent iron in Jiangxi red soil was investigated. DDT compounds were effectively dechlorinated by zero-valent iron. The pseudo-first-order kinetic model for 2,4¢-DDT and 4,4¢-DDT reduction with zero-valent iron was proposed. The reaction rate constants for 2,4¢-DDT and 4,4¢-DDT were 1.19´10-2(min-1) and 1.44´10-2(min-1), respectively. The dechlorination of 2,4¢-DDT and 4,4¢-DDT were mainly affected by the specific surface area of iron. The data from the variable-pH experiments (between 3.6 and 8.8) suggested that pH does not play a role in the rate-determination step.

Abstract This study investigated effects of pretreatments on rehydration characteristics of solar-dried carrot slices. Blanching at 55, 65 and 75°C for 45 minutes and osmotic dewatering in 5%, 10% and 15% salt solutions for 5 h were used as pretreatments. Rehydration capacity of the dried carrots was determined by soaking 20 g sample in hot water at 95°C for 10 min and rehydration kinetics was carried out by soaking 5 g samples at 75, 85 and 95°C. All the treatment conditions separately and in combination influenced the rehydration characteristics of the carrot slices. High values of rehydration capacity and low lixiviated soluble solids, which indicates better quality, were obtained for samples treated at the lower blanching temperature. Similarly the lower salt concentration resulted in higher rehydration capacity and lower lixiviated soluble solids. The interaction of the lower level of both pretreatments produced higher rehydration capacity and lower soluble solid losses. A first-order kinetic model was used to describe the rehydration kinetics. A better rehydration performance was observed for the samples subjected to the lower levels of pretreatments and rehydration conditions.

Abstract Jiangpo is an increasingly popular East Asian spice which is made from Mangnolia officinalis bark and ginger juice. Since it induces bioactive compounds decomposition and has influence on final flavor and fragrance, cooking is regarded as the key operation in preparation of Jiangpo. To evaluate the bioactive compounds content changes of Jiangpo during thermal processing, kinetic parameters including reaction order, rate constant, T1/2 and activation energy of bioactive markers namely honokiol, magnolol and curcumin were determined. Cooking was set at temperatures 60, 90 and 120 °C for selected time intervals. Results displayed the thermal kinetic characteristics of the three compounds. Thermal degradation of Honokiol and magnolol both followed first order kinetic model and the loss of curcumin fitted second order. A mathematical model based on the obtained kinetic parameters has also been developed to predict the degradation of honokiol, magnolol and curcumin in non-isothermal state. All the information in this paper could contribute necessary information for optimizing the existing heat processing of Jiangpo.

Tolonium Chloride

Anatase titanium dioxide catalyzed photodegradation of tolonium chloride at various bufferic pH of 2, 7, 9 and 12 in aqueous solution is presented. The effect of some physicochemical parameters such as initial concentration of dye, catalyst amount and reaction time on photocatalytic degradation has been investigated in a photo-reactor cell containing high pressure mercury lamp to obtain the optimum conditions in each bufferic pH at constant temperature. A complete spectrophotometric kinetic study of tolonium chloride under high pressure irradiation at buffer media was performed. The photocatalytic degradation observed rate constants (kobs) were found to be 2.90×10-3, 3.30×10-3, 3.20×10-3and 5.20×10-3min-1for buffer pH of 2-12 respectively. It was found that a pseudo-first-order kinetic model based on Langmuir-Hinshelwood one is usable to photodegradation of this compound at all considered buffer pH. In addition to these, the Langmuir-Hinshelwood rate constants, krfor the titled compound at various pH are reported.

The mineralisation kinetics of petroleum refinery effluent (PRE) by Fenton oxidation were evaluated. Within the ambit of the experimental data generated, first-order kinetic model (FKM), generalised lumped kinetic model (GLKM), and generalized kinetic model (GKM) were tested. The obtained apparent kinetic rate constants for the initial oxidation step (k2′), their final oxidation step (k1′), and the direct conversion to endproducts step (k3′) were 10.12, 3.78, and 0.24 min−1for GKM; 0.98, 0.98, and nil min−1for GLKM; and nil, nil, and >0.005 min−1for FKM. The findings showed that GKM is superior in estimating the mineralization kinetics.
