Treatment of synthetic dyehouse effluent containing six reactive dyestuffs and their assisting chemicals by O3/Fe(II), O3/Mn(II), and O3/H2O2 advanced oxidation processes was investigated. All oxidation processes were capable of completely decolourizing the wastewater within 30 min. Decolourization proceeded fastest by the O3/Mn(II) process, whereas the O3/H2O2 combination was more efficient in the removal of DOC (Dissolved Organic carbon) and UV254nm which were 11 and 53%, respectively, for one hour treatment time. Application of Fe(II)-catalyzed ozonation provided an effective means of removing colour and COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) by a five- and nine-fold enhancement, respectively, compared with conventional coagulation applied at the same coagulant doses. Formation of toxic oxidation products was not observed during the course of treatment with all investigated advanced oxidation processes.

As drought becomes pervasive around the world, many water suppliers are turning to water supplies once avoided – contaminated surface waters and groundwaters and wastewater. These water supplies are now a valuable part of a sustainable water supply; however, advanced treatment with advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) is typically needed to address trace contaminants in these supplies. This paper will address the following questions: 1) What is the best AOP technology for a given application? 2) Are there oxidation byproducts of concern? 3) What is the best peroxide quenching method? 4) How cost competitive are AOPs?

Oxidation Processes

Advanced oxidation processes have been reported to have the potential to remove natural organic matter from source waters. Of these Fenton's reagent, photo-Fenton's reagent and titanium dioxide photocatalysis are the three most promising processes. Compared to conventional coagulation/flocculation processes they have higher removal efficiencies in terms of both dissolved organic carbon and UV254 absorbance. Under optimum reaction conditions all three remove over 80% dissolved organic carbon and 0% UV254 absorbance. In addition the enhanced removal of natural organic matter leads to a corresponding reduction in the formation of disinfection by-products following chlorination of the treated water. Advanced oxidation processes give enhanced removal of organic species ranging from low to high molecular weight while coagulation/flocculation is inefficient at removing low molecular weight species. One additional benefit is all three processes produce less residuals compared to conventional coagulation, which is advantageous as the disposal of such residuals normally contributes a large proportion of the costs at water treatment works.

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) composed of O3, H2O2 and ultraviolet (UV) were applied to degrade tetracycline (TC). Degradation efficiency was evaluated in terms of changes in absorbance (ABS) and total organic carbon (TOC). The change in biotoxicity was monitored with Escherichia coli and Vibrio fischeri. The improvement in biodegradability during oxidation was demonstrated through 5-day biochemical oxygen demand/chemical oxygen demand ratio and aerobic biological treatment. The combination of O3/H2O2/UV and O3/UV showed the best performance for the reductions in ABS and TOC. However, mineralization and detoxification were not perfect under the experimental conditions that were used in this study. Therefore, for the ultimate treatment of TC compounds, it is suggested that AOP treatment is followed by biological treatment, utilizing enhanced biodegradability. In this study, aerobic biological treatment by Pseudomonas putida was performed for O3/UV-treated TC. It was confirmed that O3/UV treatment improved TOC reduction and facilitated complete mineralization in biological treatment.

This paper presents a summary of degrading organic compounds of nuclear laundry water by ozonation in different conditions of pH, hydrogen peroxide and ultraviolet radiation. The degradation of organic compounds was analysed by chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOC) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). The optimal degradation conditions were at pH 7 with ozone, UV radiation and hydrogen peroxide addition. The transfer of ozone increased significantly, thus resulting in decreased treatment time compared to ozone treatment alone. The reductions of COD, TOC and BOD were 46%, 32% and 70%, respectively.

Abstract In this study, the kinetics of photocatalytic removal of imidacloprid, a systemic chloronicotinoid insecticide, from water using two advanced oxidation systems (ZnO(normal)/H2O2/artificial sunlight and ZnO(nano)/H2O2/artificial sunlight) were investigated. Moreover, the effects of pH, insecticide concentration, catalyst concentration, catalyst particle size, and water type on the photocatalytic removal of imidacloprid were evaluated. Furthermore, total mineralization of imidacloprid under these advanced oxidation systems was evaluated by monitoring the decreases in dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations and formation rate of inorganic ions (Cl− and NO2−) with irradiation time using total organic carbon (TOC) analysis and ion chromatography to confirm the complete detoxification of imidacloprid in water. The degradation rate of imidacloprid was faster under the ZnO(nano)/H2O2/artificial sunlight system than the ZnO(normal)/artificial sunlight system in both pure and river water. The photocatalytic degradation of imidacloprid under both advanced oxidation systems was affected by pH, catalyst concentration, imidacloprid concentration, and water type. Almost complete mineralization of imidacloprid was only achieved in the ZnO(nano)/H2O2/artificial sunlight oxidation system. The photogeneration rate of hydroxyl radicals was higher under the ZnO(nano)/H2O2/artificial sunlight system than the ZnO(normal)/H2O2/artificial sunlight system. Advanced oxidation processes, particularly those using nanosized zinc oxide, can be regarded as an effective photocatalytic method for imidacloprid removal from water.

Dimensionally Stable Anode

Numerosos reportes han descrito un aumento de los productos farmacéuticos y de cuidado personal, detectados en diversos cuerpos de agua durante los últimos años. Su continua detección es un riesgo, ya que puede significar una afectación directa hacia el ecosistema. La presencia de este tipo de contaminantes en efluentes de plantas de tratamiento de aguas residuales, demuestran las bajas eficiencias de degradación por los métodos convencionales. Debido a lo anterior, alternativas como los procesos de oxidación avanzada (AOPs, Advanced Oxidation Processes) han ganado interés, por la producción de especies oxidantes capaces de degradar compuestos altamente recalcitrantes. El acoplar dos o más AOPs, puede favorecer el aumento en la producción de agentes oxidantes (HOCl, .OH), así como incrementar la eficiencia de degradación y mineralización de contaminantes. Con este último propósito, se realizó la degradación de ciprofloxacino (20 ppm) al implementar un sistema electroquímico foto-asistido, donde se utilizó un electrodo de RuO2 como ánodo dimensionalmente estable (DSA, Dimensionally Stable Anode), sintetizado mediante el método de Pechini, en conjunto con una fuente de radiación de 254 nm y soluciones de 0.05M de NaCl como fuente de cloruros. Además, se estudió el comportamiento del sistema foto-electrocatalítico en condiciones de pH 3, 6 y 9, con ayuda de la imposición de densidades de corriente de 5 y 10 mA cm−2, ocurriendo entonces, la electrogeneración de especies de cloro activo, así como reacciones de homólisis de las mismas para la degradación del ciprofloxacino. Los productos de los sistemas se evaluaron por medio de espectroscopía UV (UV-Vis, Ultraviolet-Visible Spectroscopy), cromatografía de líquidos de alta resolución (HPLC, High Performance Liquid Chromatography) y carbono orgánico total (TOC, Total Organic Carbon). Los resultados indicaron mayor eficiencia durante el proceso a condiciones de pH 6 e imposición de 10 mA cm-2, obteniendo una mineralización promedio del 69.4±5.6%, del contaminante a 60 minutos, mientras que la degradación del contaminante ocurrió durante los primeros 5 minutos del proceso.

Oxidation Efficiency

Currently, the ozone (O3) oxidation efficiency in the treatment of waste soy sauce provides 34.2% color removal and a 27.4% reduction in its chemical oxygen demand (COD). To improve the O3 oxidation efficiency, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is used to cause a H2O2/O3 process. In H2O2/O3 process experiments, a previously optimized pH of 11 and applied O3 dose of 50 mg L−1 were used and the H2O2/O3 ratio was varied between 0.1 and 0.9 in intervals of 0.2. The results show that an H2O2/O3 ratio of 0.3 results in the highest efficiencies in terms of color removal (51.6%) and COD reduction (33.8%). Nanofiltration (NF) was used to pretreat the waste soy sauce to improve color removal and COD reduction. The results showed that NF with an NE-70 membrane results in 80.8% color removal and 79.6% COD reduction. Finally, the combination of NF and H2O2/O3 process resulted in the best treatment efficiency: 98.1% color removal and 98.2% COD reduction. Thus, NF & H2O2/O3 process can be considered as one of the best treatment methods for waste soy sauce, which requires high intrinsic color removal and COD reduction efficiencies.

Two Samples

Using two samples of a pharmaceutical wastewater, the efficiency of three advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) (H2O2/UV, O3/UV and H2O2/Fe(II)) for the removal of adsorbable organic halogen (AOX) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) were compared on a laboratory scale. The AOX contents of these samples ranged from 3 to 5 mg/L. Generally the results showed that all three methods are suitable for the degradation of AOX and COD. UV irradiation involved a high selectivity for the degradation of AOX compared to COD. On the other hand, processes based on hydroxyl radicals were less selective but considerably more effective in COD degradation. This explains why the combined methods H2O2/UV and O3/UV lead both to a complete destruction of AOX and a large removal of COD. During ozone treatment – without UV radiation – a decrease of AOX was also observed, although to a lower degree. Using Fenton's reagent both AOX and COD could be removed almost completely. The reaction time needed for this kind of treatment was very low compared to the other two AOPs. O3/UV treatment showed the largest consumption of “activated” oxygen (AO) during COD degradation. H2O2/Fe(II) treatment required almost the same amount of AO as H2O2/UV.
