Liquid Reaction

In a water ozonation process, dissolved organics undergo two reactions at least: direct ozone attack and oxidation with hydroxyl radicals generated from the ozone decomposition. In the particular case of urban wastewater contaminated with pharmaceuticals, competition between these two reactions can be studied through application of gas–liquid reaction kinetics. However, there is a lack in literature about kinetic modeling of ozone processes in water specially in photocatalytic ozonation. In this work, lumped reactions of ozone and hydroxyl radicals with total organic carbon have been proposed. Urban wastewater containing a mixture of eight pharmaceutical compounds has been used to establish the kinetic model that simulates the mineralization process. The kinetic model is based on a mechanism of free radical and molecular reactions and the knowledge of mass transfer, chemical reaction rate constants, and radiation transfer data. According to the model, both single ozonation and photocatalytic ozonation present two distinct reaction periods characterized by the absence and presence of dissolved ozone. In the first period (less than 10 min), pharmaceuticals mainly disappear by direct ozone reactions and TOC variation due to these compounds has been modeled according to gas–liquid reaction kinetics through a lumped ozone-pharmaceutical TOC fast second order reaction. The corresponding rate constant of this reaction was found to change with time from 3 × 105 to 200 M−1 s−1 with Hatta values higher than 0.3. In the second period (nearly 5 h), competition between direct and hydroxyl radical reactions takes place and a kinetic model based on a direct and free radical reaction mechanism is proposed. Main influencing parameters to be known were: Direct ozone reaction rate constant, catalyst quantum yield, and hydroxyl radical scavengers. The first two take values of 0.5 M−1 s−1 and 5 × 10−4 mol·photon−1, respectively, while a fraction of TOC between 10% and 90% that changes with time was found to possess hydroxyl radical scavenger nature.

Abstract Reactivity of oxidative species with target pollutants is one of the crucial parameters for application of any system based on advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). This work presents new useful approach how to determine the hydroxyl radical reaction rate constants (kOH) using UVA laser flash photolysis technique. Fe(III) hydroxocomplex at pH 3 was applied as a standard source of hydroxyl radicals and methyl viologen dication (MV2+) was used as selective probe for •OH radical. Application of MV2+ allows to determine kOH values even for compounds which do not generate themselves optically detectable transient species in reaction with hydroxyl radicals. Validity of this approach was tested on a wide range of different persistent pesticides and its main advantages and drawbacks in comparison with existing steady-state and time-resolved techniques were discussed.

Generation of hydroxyl radicals, one of the major active species in ozonation of water was directly observed with a spin-trapping/electron spin resonance (ESR) technique using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolineN-oxide (DMPO) as a spin-trapping reagent. Hydroxyl radical were trapped with DMPO as a stable radical, DMPO-OH. Eighty μM of ozone produced 1.08 X 10-6M of DMPO-OH, indicating that 1.4% of •OH is trapped with DMPO. Generation rate of DMPO-OH was determined by ESR/stopped-flow measurement. Phenol derivatives increased the amount and generation rate of DMPO-OH, indicating that phenol derivatives enhance •OH generation during ozonation of water. Ozonation of 2,3-, 2,5-, 2,6-dichlorophenol gave an ESR spectra of triplet lines whose peak height ratio were 1:2:1. ESR parameters of the triplet lines agreed with those of the corresponding dichloro-psemiquinone radical. Ozonation of 2,4,5- and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol gave the same spectra as those of 2,5- and 2,6-dichlorophenol, respectively, indicating that a chlorine group in p-position is substituted with a hydroxy group during ozonation. Amounts of the radical increased in an ozone-concentration dependent manner and were inhibited by addition of hydroxyl radical scavengers. These results suggest that p-semiquinone radicals are generated from the chlorophenols by hydroxyl radicals during ozonation. The p-semiquinone radicals were at least partly responsible for enhancements of DMPO-OH generation.

The reaction rate of hydrogen isotope exchange between D2 and H2O catalyzed by platinum plate is studied. The exchange reaction is described with the kinetic model which is the modification of that for the exchange reaction catalyzed by alumina-supported platinum catalyst. For the comparison of experimental results with this model relative amount of the number of sites for hydrogen adsorption was estimated from the initial rate of hydrogen isotope exchange between H2 and D2 on the same surface. The results show that the kinetic model is applicable for the plate catalyst if the number of the sites for hydrogen absorption, which is very sensitive to the surface state of the catalyst, was estimated not from the macroscopic surface area but from our scheme. Keywords: hydrogen isotope exchange reaction, platinum plate as catalyst.

H2O2 mimicked the action of periportal pO2 in the modulation by O2 of the glucagon-dependent activation of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK) gene and the insulin-dependent activation of the glucokinase (GK) gene. H2O2 can be converted in the presence of Fe2+ in a Fenton reaction into hydroxyl anions and hydroxyl radicals (•OH). The hydroxyl radicals are highly reactive and might interfere locally with transcription factors. It was the aim of the present study to investigate the role of and to localize such a Fenton reaction. Hepatocytes cultured for 24 h were treated under conditions mimicking periportal or perivenous pO2 with glucagon or insulin plus the iron chelator desferrioxamine (DSF) or the hydroxyl radical scavenger dimethylthiourea (DMTU) to inhibit the Fenton reaction. PCK mRNA was induced by glucagon maximally under conditions of periportal pO2 and half-maximally under venous pO2. GK mRNA was induced by insulin with reciprocal modulation by O2. DSF and DMTU reduced the induction of PCK mRNA to about half-maximal and increased the induction of GK mRNA to maximal under both O2 tensions. Hydroxyl radical formation was maximal under arterial pO2. Perivenous pO2, DSF and DMTU each decreased the formation of •OH to about 70% of control. The Fenton reaction could be localized in a perinuclear space by confocal laser microscopy and three-dimensional reconstruction techniques. In the same compartment, iron could be detected by electron-probe X-ray microanalysis. Thus a local Fenton reaction is involved in the O2 signalling, which modulated the glucagon- and insulin-dependent PCK gene and GK gene activation.
