The enhancements of removal rate for p-nitrophenol and TOC were around 116% and 294% respectively in comparison with the individual ultrasound and ozonation systems. The synergetic phenomenon is attributed to two physicochemical mechanisms: (1) Ultrasound decomposes ozone causing augmentation of the activity of free radicals; (2) Ultrasonic wave increased the concen- tration of O3 in solution because of ultrasonic dispersion.展开更多

It was experimentally found that the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency of these organic compounds can achieve a high level more than 90% in a short residence time at temperatures high enough. As temperature, pressure and residence time increase, the COD removal efficiencies of the organic compounds would all increase. It is also found that temperature and residence time offer greater influences on the oxidation process than pressure. The difficulty in oxidizing these three compounds is in the order of nitrobenzene ＞ aniline ＞ Phenol. In addition, it is extremely difficult to oxidize aniline and nitrobenzene to CO2 and H2O at the temperature lower than 873.15 K and 923.15 K, respectively. Only at the temperature higher than 873.15 K and 923.15 K, respectively, the COD removal efficiencies of 90% of aniline and nitrobenzene can be achieved.展开更多

In this work, o-nitro-phenol wastewater was effectively treated using magnetization-enhanced oxidation by NaCIO solutions. The pollutant concentrations in wastewater were 250 mg/L o-nitro-phenol, 2,000 mg/L CODcr and 150 times color. The experimental results show that, using the method in this work, 94.4% o-nitro-phenol, 94.2% CODCr and 100% color can be removed at pH 6, 200 mg charcoal, 8 mL oxidizer, 5 min reaction time in 1000 mL wastewater. The treatment can be enhanced under magnetic field. CODCr and o-nitro-phenol removal can keep unchanged while the reaction time can be reduced to 3 min when the intensity of magnetic field was 60 mT.展开更多

Among nitrophenols, p-nitrophenol （PNP） is a priority pollutant that has been widely used as pesticide. PNP is a toxic compound that enters the environment during manufacturing and processing of a variety of industrial products. This situation generalized its presence in multiple natural ecosystems： rivers, wastewaters, subterranean waters, soil treated by pesticides and urban atmosphere. This study aims to test the ability of wastewater microflora to degrade high concentration of PNP （500 rag/L） aerobically. An identification of the dominant microorganisms involved in the biodegradation is also carried. The cultures are performed using a minimum medium, where PNP is the sole source of carbon, energy and nitrogen. The kinetic of biodegradation is followed for more than 30 days of incubation at 30 ~C on a shaker （150 tours/min）. The obtained results show that more than 90% of PNP initial concentration is decomposed at the end of incubation. The isolation of microorganisms degrading PNP gave two bacterial colonies with different macroscopic aspects. Sequence analysis of 16S ribosomal DNA indicated that the PNP degrading isolates were closely related to members of the species： Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus cereus.展开更多
