The degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid was studied under different H202/O3 molar ratio and pH value. Meanwhile, TOC removal was investigated both in distilled water and tap water. The influences of ozone transfer and consumed hydrogen peroxide were also discussed. The degradation products and oxidation intermediates were identified by GC-MS and LC-MS. A possible reaction mechanism was thus proposed.展开更多

Main objective of the experiment was to removetotal organic carbon (TOC), non-biodegradable organic compounds(NBDOC) and color. In UV/H_2O_2 oxidation experiment, with theincrease of H_2O_2 dosage, removal efficiencies of TOC and coloralong with the ratio of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) to chemicaloxygen demand (COD) of the effluent were increased and a betterperformance was obtained than the system H_2O_2 alone.展开更多

Effects of operating parameters, including initial PAM concentration, dosages of ozone and hydrogen peroxide, UV radiation and pH value on the photochemical oxidation of PAM, have been studied. There was an increase in photochemical oxidation rate of PAM with increasing of dosages of 03, H2O2 and ultraviolet radiation. Upon increasing of the initial PAM concentration, the photochemical oxidation rate of PAM decreased. Slight effect of pH value on the photochemical oxidation rate of PAM was observed in the experiments. The kinetics equation for the photochemical oxidation of PAM by the system has been established.展开更多

The COD of leachate was lowered from an average of 12900 mg/L to 1440 mg/L after the UASB treatment, and was further lowered to 394 mg/L after the fenton coagulation. The remaining refractory residues could be further removed by ozonation with the addition of H 2O 2. The ozonation for the supernatant of the fenton coagulation was most effective at pH 7—8, with the addition of 300 mg/L of H 2O 2, and 30 min of reaction. The final effluent contained only 85 mg/L of COD and l0 mg/L of BOD 5. On the other hand, direct ozonation of UASB effluent lowered the COD to 905 mg/L and BOD 5 to l03 mg/L. Ozonation improved the biodegradability of the organic residues, and also converted part of organic\|N in the leachate into NH 3 N and NO - 3\|N.展开更多

The results demonstrated that the backwashing intervals increased from 35.17 to 54.33（H2O2）and to 53.67 hr（ClO2） after the oxidation treatments, and the increase of backwashing interval after treatment by O3 was much less than for the other two treatments.Interestingly, the treatment efficiency of filters was not affected by O3 or H2O2 oxidation;but after oxidation by ClO2, the treatment efficiency was deteriorated, especially the ammonia removal（from 96.96% to 24.95%）. The filter sands before and after the oxidation were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.Compared with the oxidation by O3 and H2O2, the structures on the surface of filter sands were seriously damaged after oxidation by ClO2. The chemical states of manganese on the surfaces of those treated sands were only changed by ClO2. The damage of the structures and the change of the chemical states of manganese might have a negative effect on the ammonia removal. In summary, H2O2 is a suitable agent for film peeling.展开更多
