Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is one of the most common plasticizers, it have a wide variety of industrial, agricultural and domestic applications. The degradation characteristics of DEHP in water by the advanced oxidation process O3, UV and UV/O3 were respectively studied. The effects of ozone concentration, DEHP concentration and pH on the removal rate of DEHP were investigated. The experimental results showed that UV was not able to remove DEHP significantly. However, O3 or the combination of O3 with UV could degrade DEHP effectively. Both the increase in the O3 concentration and the initial pH value of the system benefited the DEHP removal.

Degradation of chloramphenicol (CAP) by an advanced oxidation process, UV/H2O2, was investigated. Firstly, effect of H2O2 concentration, initial pH value, K2S2O8 concentration and reaction time on chloramphenicol degradation by UV/H2O2 process was studied. In addition, all the operation parameters mentioned above were optimized. The results showed that the degradation efficiency of CAP can be obviously enhanced with increasing both H2O2 concentration and K2S2O8 concentration. Moreover, initial pH value had unapparent impact on the efficiency of chloramphenicol degradation. Nearly complete degradation of chloramphenicol was achieved under the conditions of H2O2 concentration 2mM, initial pH value 7.7, K2S2O8 concentration 1mM and reaction time 15min.

Abstract Advanced oxidation process (AOP) has attracted widespread attention because it can effectively remove antibiotics in water, but its practical engineering application is limited by the problems of the low efficiency and difficult recovery of the catalyst. In the study, nano-spinel CoFe2O4 was prepared by hydrothermal method and served as the peroxymonosulfate (PMS) catalyst to degrade antibiotic amoxicillin (AMX). The reaction parameters such as CoFe2O4 dosage, AMX concentration, and initial pH value were also optimized. The reaction mechanism was proposed through free radical capture experiment and possible degradation pathway analysis. In addition, the magnetic recovery performance and stability of the catalyst were evaluated. Results showed that 85.5% of AMX could be removed within 90 min at optimal conditions. Sulfate radicals and hydroxyl radicals were the active species for AMX degradation. Moreover, the catalyst showed excellent magnetism and stability in the cycle experiment, which has great potential in the AOP treatment of antibiotic polluted wastewater.

By the static experiment, we studied the electrochemical oxidation process of simulated hydroquinone wastewater (concentration for 300mg•L-1) in the three-dimensional cell. Experimental inspected how various factors of the packing quality ratio, electrolysis voltage, supporting electrolyte concentration, and the initial pH value influence the effect of the removal of hydroquinone and CODCr. The results of the experiment clearly indicated with the increase of voltage applied the removal rate of hydroquinone and CODCr increased first and then decreased, finally and increased again. In the weak alkali conditions (pH=8.5), the removal rate of hydroquinone and CODCr is the highest, Electrolyte concentration and packing quality ratio to the effect of hydroquinone by electrochemical degradation is the larger. The results of the single factor analysis show that the most suitable processing conditions of simulated hydroquinone wastewater by bipolar electrocatalysis oxidation are the Na2SO4 concentration of 0.03mol•L-1, the electrolytic voltage of 6V, the initial pH value of 8.5, the packing quality ratio of 1:2. With this condition processing 3h, the removal rate of hydroquinone and CODCr reached 83.96% and 39.9%, respectively.

Se ha realizado el estudio cinético de la decoloración del colorante reactivo Sunfix Yellow S4GL (RAS) empleando una disolución de 20 ppm del colorante mediante el proceso de oxidación avanzada (POA) H2O2/UV. Para ello se evaluó el efecto de la concentración inicial del peróxido de hidrógeno, el pH inicial de la solución, la concentración del colorante y la intensidad de la radiación UV‐C sobre la decoloración con el fin de optimizarlos. Los valores óptimos son los siguientes: concentración inicial de H2O2 a 3.8 x 10‐2 mol/L, pH3, concentración inicial del colorante a 20mg/L, potencia de radiación 3 lámparas con potencia de 15W de radiación UV‐C cada una. El estudio cinético de la decoloración sigue un modelo cinético de pseudo primer orden. Bajo condiciones óptimas se obtuvo un porcentaje de decoloración del 100% luego de una hora de tratamiento.

Advanced treatment of biochemical treated coking wastewater was studied experimentally with ozonation process. The effects of initial pH value, ozone concentration, reaction temperature, and reaction time on the COD and color removal rate were investigated. The results showed that ozonation was an effective method for advanced treatment of biochemical treated coking wastewater. The increasing of initial pH value, ozone concentration, reaction temperature, and reaction time has enhanced the removal rate of COD and color. Meanwhile, the results also revealed that the maximal COD and color removal rate of 69.65% and 92.27% could be reached under the optimal conditions of the initial pH value is 10.5, ozone concentration is 150 mg/L, reaction temperature is 298 K, and reaction time is 30 min.

Pharmaceutical wastewater may contain bio-refractory and toxic compounds that cannot be treated by microbiology methods. In addition to low efficiency, bacteria will be collapsed and biomass wash-out will occur and be detected as TSS. Hybrid advanced oxidation process (HAOP), based on the electrochemical method, is highly potential for degradation of stable compounds. Cylinder cathode made of carbon cloth was paired with Ti/PtIr anode and inter-electrode distance of 1-3 cm. The cell was equipped with a magnetic stirrer to improve the oxidation-reduction on the surface of the electrode thus enhancing contact between pollutant and generated oxidator. Applied at electrolyte of 4000 mg/L, ferrous sulfate of 0.2 mM, and pH value of 2.5, HAOP showed an excellent performance and reached 60%, 90%, and 94% of COD reduction after 3, 6, and 9 hrs.

Decolorization of red azo dye (Cibacron Red FN-R) from synthetic wastewater has been investigated as a function of solar advanced oxidation process. The photocatalytic activity using ZnO as a photocatalysis has been estimated. Different parameters affected the removal efficiency, including pH of the solution, initial dye concentration and H2O2 concentration were evaluated to find out the optimum value of these parameters. The results proved that the optimal pH value was 8 and the most efficient H2O2 concentration was 100mg/L. Toxicity reduction percent for effluent solution was also monitored to assess the degradation process. This treatment method was able to strongly reduce the color and toxicity of reactive red dye-238 to about (99 and 80) % respectively. It can be concluded, from these experiments, that the using of ZnO as a photocatalysis was exhibited as economical and efficient treatment method to remove reactive red dye-238 from aqueous solution.

Cyanide containing wastewater that discharged from gold mining process creates environmental problems due to the toxicity of cyanide. As one of the promising advanced oxidation process, catalytic oxidation with ozone is considered to be effective on the purification of cyanide. Diatomite, a natural mineral, was used as catalyst in this study. The effect of O3 dosage, salinity, initial cyanide concentration and initial pH condition were investigated. It was observed that the removal rate of cyanide was much higher in the catalytic oxidation with ozone process than the one in zone alone process. Alkaline condition was especially favorable for cyanide in catalytic oxidation with ozone. The ozone and catalytic oxidation with ozone were simulated by pseudo-first-order kinetics model. The apparent first-order rate constant contribution of the diatomite catalyst was 0.0757 min-1, and the contribution percentage was 65.77%.
