The low molecular weight (LMW) of sulfated polysaccharides including k-carrageenan, is shows a wide spectrum of biological activities. This research investigates the influence of UV irradiation, ozone (O3), and the combination of O3/UV methods on the depolymerization of k-carrageenan. The depolymerization kinetics of k-carrageenan using the Advanced Oxidation Process (UV/O3) was also studied. Furthermore, the intrinsic viscosity method was used to determine the average molecular weight of the research sample, and a mathematical model was developed to predict the kinetic rate constant, as a function of ozone dosage and UV irradiation intensity. Therefore, the physicochemical and morphological properties of the degraded k-carrageenan were analyzed by FT-IR, SEM, and XRD. The intrinsic viscosity k-carrageenan decreases with increasing UV light intensity and ozone concentration. The combination of UV/O3 treatment appeared to be more effective than the individual approaches, as the highest kinetic rate constant for depolymerization was 1.924×10-4 min-1, using 125 mg/L ozone concentration and 40 mW/cm2 of UV lamp intensity. This research also evaluated the relationship between various experimental conditions, including UV lamp power dissipation and ozone concentration on the reaction kinetics model, and the results suggest that lower effect is contributed by UV irradiation intensity. In addition, FT-IR spectra showed the absence of any significant change in the functional properties of k-carrageenan treated with UV and O3 processes, although the morphological properties of the LMW k-carrageenan were rougher and more porous than the native k-carrageenan.

Experimental research into the photooxidation of aqueous solutions and wastewaters containing phenolic compounds was undertaken. Titanium dioxide under near-UV irradiation was selected as a photocatalyst. Phenol, p-cresol, resorcinol and 5-methylresorcinol (5-MR) were chosen as model compounds for the experiments with synthetic phenolic solutions. The photooxidative treatment of phenolic solutions was found to be more effective in acidic and strongly alkaline media. No difference was found between shortwave and near-UV irradiation photooxidation abilities. Methylated phenolic substitutes (p-cresol, 5-MR) yield better to photooxidation than non-methylated compounds. The higher the irradiation intensity the lower the photooxidation efficiency. The results obtained from the experiments with model compounds were compared with the results of photooxidative purification of wastewaters produced from the thermal treatment of oil shale in Estonia. Being heavily polluted, the wastewater yields better to photooxidation when slightly diluted with potable water in a 3:1 ratio. Anatase, immobilised onto the surface of buoyant hollow glass microspheres, was less effective than when suspended in a slurry. The photooxidatively pre-treated wastewater showed better biodegradability and lower toxicity to bacteria than untreated wastewater.

Double Hydroxides

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been studied to a great extent as environmental-friendly complex materials that can be used as photocatalysts or photocatalyst supports. ZnAl layered double hydroxides and their derived mixed oxides were chosen for the investigation of photocatalytic performances in correlation with the UV intensities measured in the South Pannonia region. Low supersaturation coprecipitation method was used for the ZnAl LDH synthesis. For the characterization of LDH and thermal treated samples powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), nitrogen adsorption-desorption were used. The decomposition of azodye, methylene blue was chosen as photocatalytic test reaction. The study showed that the ZnAl mixed oxide obtained by thermal decomposition of ZnAl LDH has stable activity in the broader UV light irradiation range characterizing the selected region. Photocatalytic activity could be mainly attributed to the ZnO phase, detected both in LDH and thermally treated samples. The study showed that the ZnAl mixed oxide obtained by the calcination of ZnAl LDH has a stable activity within the measured UV light irradiation range; whereas the parent ZnAl LDH catalyst did not perform satisfactory when low UV irradiation intensity is implied.

Effect of UV irradiation on the migration of di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) plasticizers from food-grade PVC film into packaged ground meat that had various levels of fat content (i.e. 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%) was studied. After 20 h of UV irradiation (intensity 900µW cm-2)，the amount of migrated DEHP had a dramatic increase by 2.55, 2.75, 2.18 and 2.16 times in comparison to that in control samples having a fat content of 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%, respectively. The migration was intensified greatly by the UV irradiation of 8 to 12 h. There were 220.10 mg kg-1, 245.88 mg kg-1, 291.18 mg kg-1, and 357.40 mg kg-1 DEHP migrating from the PVC film into the ground meat during these periods, which contributed a large proportion to the final total amounts of DEHP, being 66.6%, 57.5%, 60.6% and 68.7% of 20 h of UV irradiation, for the ground meat of fat content of 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%, respectively. These results indicate that safety risk of packaged food will increase when the packaged food is under UV irradiation.

The photocatalytic degradation of pyrene (PYRE) and benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) on soil surfaces in the presence of Fe2O3 using ultraviolet (UV) light source was investigated in a photo chamber, in which the temperature was maintained 30 . The effects of UV irradiation intensity and UV wavelength on the degradation performance of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were studied. The results show that with the intensity of UV irradiation being enhanced, the photocatalytic degradation rates of PAHs were increased. Photocatalytic degradation rates of PYRE and BaP on soil surfaces with 5% Fe2O3 were different at UV irradiation wavelengths of 254, 310 and 365 nm, respectively.
