A more efficient use of vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) radiation produced by an immersed Xe-excimer light source (172 nm) was investigated for the oxidative degradation of organic pollutants in aqueous systems. All emitted VUV radiation from one light source was used in two simultaneous but separate photochemical reactions: (1) photochemical generation of ozone by irradiating oxygen in the gas phase and (2) photolysis of the aqueous reaction system. The gas stream containing the generated ozone is sparged into the reaction system, thus enhancing the oxidative degradation of organic pollutants. The photochemically generated ozone in the gas phase was quantitatively analyzed, and the kinetics of the degradation of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) and of the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) were determined under different experimental conditions. The results show that the rates of degradation of the substrate and of the DOC decrease in the order of the applied processes, VUV/O3 > O3 > VUV.

Abstract. This article, the second in the series, presents kinetic and photochemical data evaluated by the IUPAC Subcommittee on Gas Kinetic Data Evaluation for Atmospheric Chemistry. It covers the gas phase and photochemical reactions of Organic species, which were last published in 1999, and were updated on the IUPAC website in late 2002. The article consists of a summary sheet, containing the recommended kinetic parameters for the evaluated reactions, and eight appendices containing the data sheets, which provide information upon which the recommendations are made.

The reaction of benzene and nitrogen dioxide to produce nitrobenzene has been studied in the liquid and gas phases, in the dark, and with irradiation by light of 439 mμ and of 366 mμ. The concentration of NO2 in the liquid was varied from 0.08 to 1.6 moles/1 and in the gas from 0.0035 to 0.053 moles/1. No nitrobenzene was produced under any conditions in the liquid phase. Nitrobenzene is produced in the gas phase at high NO2 concentrations with irradiation by 366 mμ light. The quantum yield is 0.2. At 439 mμ the quantum yield is not more than 0.02. There is a very small dark reaction. As the concentration of NO2 in the gas is reduced the yield of nitrobenzene falls off very rapidly and is zero at the lowest concentration used, both in dark and light.
