Degradation processes of organic compounds over UV-irradiated TiO2. Effect of ozone

Research on Chemical Intermediates, 2000

UV irradiation of TiO2 promotes electrons from the valence band to the conduction band. The capabilities of the resulting redox system to degrade organic pollutants in water and the variety of products formed is illustrated here by the case of 2,3-dimethylpyrazine. Two debated questions, viz. (i) which electron-donors are implicated to fill in the electron deficiencies in the valence band? and (ii) is superoxide chemically invovled in the photocatalytic degradations?, are addressed by using quinoline, the photo-Fenton reaction and superoxide dismutase. Finally, the favourable effect of ozone is exemplified by the photoctalytic removal of monochloroacetic acid.

Synergistic effects of the combined use of ozone and sodium percarbonate for the oxidative degradation of dichlorvos

Journal of Water Process Engineering, 2021

Dichlorvos or 2,2-dichlorovinyl dimethyl phosphate (DDVP) is a chlorinated organophosphorus pesticide which is frequently detected in the aqueous environment. In this study, an environmentally friendly and highly efficient oxidant, i.e., sodium percarbonate (SPC, Na 2 CO 3 ⋅1.5H 2 O 2) was introduced to an ozonation process for the degradation of dichlorvos (DDVP). Experimental results revealed an enhancement of DDVP degradation efficiency via the O 3 /SPC process compared with O 3 alone due to the generation of reactive species (OH • and CO 3 • −) under various conditions. Both processes fitted the pseudo-first-order kinetic model and the reaction rate constant of the O 3 /SPC process under low SPC dosage (30 mg L-1) was more than two times higher than for O 3 alone. The DDVP removal performance was evaluated in terms of initial pH, O 3 dosage, SPC dosage and water matrix. The pH played a significant role in DDVP degradation during the O 3 /SPC process, especially on the occurrence of the different types of reactive species. Based on radical scavenger experiments, OH • were observed over the full pH range but dominated under neutral and alkaline conditions, while less oxidative CO 3 •-emerged at lower pH. Furthermore, the complex matrix of real wastewater inhibited the oxidation process due to the competition for oxidative species between organic matter and DDVP. A modified kinetic model based on a steady-state hypothesis was established to predict DDVP degradation via the O 3 /SPC treatment and provided a fair result under different conditions. This observation suggested that eco-friendly SPC could be considered as a promising alternative for H 2 O 2 in developing sustainable ozone-based oxidation processes for recalcitrant compounds elimination in wastewater treatment.

Oxidation of phenolic compounds by ozone and ozone + u.v. radiation: A comparative study

Water Research, 1987

This study was designed to investigate the reaction mechanisms of oxidation of various phenolic compounds by ozone and ozone + U.V. radiation at pH 2.5, 7.0 and 9.0. Experimental results indicated that the molecular ozone is the predominant oxidant only at acidic pH; at neutral and basic pH, in the absence or presence of U.V. radiation, free radical reaction is the major pathway in the oxidation of phenolic compounds. The overall removal of phenols and the removal of TOC increase with increasing pH during ozonation with or without U.V. light. For a specific pH, the removal rates of phenol and TOC are highest for ozone + U.V. light followed by ozone and then U.V. light alone.

Industrial wastewater advanced oxidation. Part 2. Ozone combined with hydrogen peroxide or UV radiation

Water Research, 1997

The oxidation of two wastewaters with ozone combined with hydrogen peroxide or UV radiation (2~;4 nm) has been studied. The oxidation yields of these systems were compared with those from ozonation alone at similar experimental conditions. It was found that O3/H202 oxidation leads to important increases in COD degradation rate (i.e. 86% at pH 6 in tomato wastewaters). The differences between the oxidation types (03 and O3/H202) diminish with increase in pH. With distillery wastewaters the presence of hydrogen peroxide hardly increases the oxidation rate. However, the combination of O3/UV radiation was the best oxidation method applied because of the improvements achieved in both COD and TOC disappearance rates compared to those of ozonation alone, regardless of wastewater type treated. As happened with other oxidation systems, the COD and TOC reductions were higher in tomato wastewater oxidation. Different kinetic parameters were also determined in order to quantify the reactivity of wastewaters towards the oxidation systems applied. © 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd

Oxidative degradation of N-Nitrosopyrrolidine by the ozone/UV process: Kinetics and pathways

Chemosphere, 2015

N-Nitrosopyrrolidine (NPYR) is an emerging contaminant in drinking water and wastewater. The degradation kinetics and mechanisms of NPYR degradation by the O3/UV process were investigated and compared with those of UV direct photolysis and ozonation. A synergistic effect of ozone and UV was observed in the degradation of NPYR due to the accelerated production of OH• by ozone photolysis. This effect was more pronounced at higher ozone dosages. The second-order rate constants of NPYR reacting with OH• and ozone was determined to be 1.38 (± 0.05) × 10(9) M(-1) s(-1) and 0.31 (± 0.02) M(-1) s(-1), respectively. The quantum yield by direct UV photolysis was 0.3 (± 0.01). An empirical model using Rct (the ratio of the exposure of OH• to that of ozone) was established for NPYR degradation in treated drinking water and showed that the contributions of direct UV photolysis and OH• oxidation on NPYR degradation were both significant. As the reaction proceeded, the contribution by OH• became l...

Comparison of the efficiency of OH radical formation during ozonation and the advanced oxidation processes O3/H2O2 and UV/H2O2

Water Research, 2006

Comparison of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) can be difficult due to physical and chemical differences in the fundamental processes used to produce d OH radicals. This study compares the ability of several AOPs, including ozone, ozone+H 2 O 2 , low pressure UV (LP)+H 2 O 2 , and medium pressure UV (MP)+H 2 O 2 in terms of energy required to produce d OH radicals. Bench scale d OH radical formation data was generated for each AOP using parachlorobenzoic acid (pCBA) as an d OH radical probe compound in three waters, Lake Greifensee water, Lake Zurich water, and a simulated groundwater. Ozone-based AOPs were found to be more energy efficient than the UV/H 2 O 2 process at all H 2 O 2 levels, and the addition of H 2 O 2 in equimolar concentration resulted in 35% greater energy consumption over the ozone only process. Interestingly, the relatively high UV/AOP operational costs were due almost exclusively to the cost of hydrogen peroxide while the UV portion of the UV/AOP process typically accounted for less than 10 percent of the UV/AOP cost and was always less than the ozone energy cost. As the d OH radical exposure increased, the energy gap between UV/H 2 O 2 AOP and ozone processes decreased, becoming negligible in some water quality scenarios.

Ozone oxidation of compounds resistant to biological degradation

Water Research, 1991

The ozonation of a polyethoxylated nonyl phenol was carried out under different conditions of pH, reaction time and iron ion added. Analysis of the reaction products was performed using RP-HPLC, NP-HPLC and MS-FAB and the degradation of the polyethoxylated side chain to give a phenol was monitored. Several experiments of ozonation of different substituted phenols and widespread cinnamic acids are reported. Their degradation was monitored by u.v. measurements. Some mechanistic considerations are derived from these data.
