The degradation of chlorpyriphos by different advanced oxidation processes such as photo-Fenton, TiO2, TiO2/H2O2, O3 and O3/H2O2 was investigated. The photo-Fenton and TiO2 processes were optimized using a solar chamber as light source. The optimum dosages of the photo-Fenton treatment were: [H2O2]=0.01 M; [Fe3 + ]=10 mg l−1; initial pH = 3.5. With these optimum conditions total degradation was observed after 15 minutes of reaction time. The application of sunlight was also efficient as total degradation was achieved after 60 minutes. The optimum dosage using only TiO2 as catalyst was 1,000 mg l−1, obtaining the maximum degradation at 20 minutes of reaction time. On the other hand, the addition of 0.02 M of H2O2 to a lower dosage of TiO2 (10 mg l−1) provides the same degradation. The ozonation treatment achieved complete degradation at 30 minutes of reaction time. On the other hand, it was observed that the degradation was faster by adding H2O2 (H2O2/O3 molar ratio = 0.5). In this case, total degradation was observed after 20 minutes.

This paper examines the use of three advanced oxidation processes in degrading the textile dye, Reactive Red 235. The dye was oxidised using ozonation, standard Fenton's reagent (Fe2+/H2O2) and a modified photo-Fenton's process (UV/Fe oxalate/H2O2) under a variety of conditions. The effects of initial dye concentration, initial pH and NaCl concentration were studied for each process. Each process was found to have different optimum conditions as determined by the underlying reaction mechanisms.

AbstractOne of the advanced oxidation processes, the Oxone process, was studied to determine its effects on the decolorization of Reactive Black 5 (RB5) in an aqueous solution. Ferrous ion was chosen as the transition metal due to its potential catalytic effect and wide availability in dye containing industrial effluents. The effects of the operating parameters such as Fe(II) and Oxone concentration, initial pH, and temperature on the process performance were investigated. The optimum conditions were determined as: 0.5 mM of Oxone concentration, 0.5 mM of Fe

In keeping with the circular economy approach, reclaiming greywater (GW) is considered a sustainable approach to local reuse of wastewater and a viable option to reduce household demand for freshwater. This study investigated the mineralization of total organic carbon (TOC) in GW using TiO2-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in a custom-built stirred tank reactor. The combinations of H2O2, O3, and immobilized TiO2 under either dark or UVA irradiation conditions were systematically evaluated—namely TiO2/dark, O3/dark (ozonation), H2O2/dark (peroxidation), TiO2/UVA (photocatalysis), O3/UVA (Ozone photolysis), H2O2/UVA (photo-peroxidation), O3/TiO2/dark (catalytic ozonation), O3/TiO2/UVA (photocatalytic ozonation), H2O2/TiO2/dark, H2O2/TiO2/UVA, H2O2/O3/dark (peroxonation), H2O2/O3/UVA (photo-peroxonation), H2O2/O3/TiO2/dark (catalytic peroxonation), and H2O2/O3/TiO2/UVA (photocatalytic peroxonation). It was found that combining different treatment methods with UVA irradiation dramatically enhanced the organic mineralization efficiency. The optimum TiO2 loading in this study was observed to be 0.96 mg/cm2 with the highest TOC removal (54%) achieved using photocatalytic peroxonation under optimal conditions (0.96 mg TiO2/cm2, 25 mg O3/min, and 0.7 H2O2/O3 molar ratio). In peroxonation and photo-peroxonation, the optimal H2O2/O3 molar ratio was identified to be a critical efficiency parameter maximizing the production of reactive radical species. Increasing ozone flow rate or H2O2 dosage was observed to cause an efficiency inhibition effect. This lab-based study demonstrates the potential for combined TiO2-AOP treatments to significantly reduce the organic fraction of real GW, offering potential for the development of low-cost systems permitting safe GW reuse.

The degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) by several advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) is carried out in the presence of different catalysts. The catalysts used consisted of carbon nanotubes (CNT), titanium dioxide (TiO2), a composite of carbon nanotubes and titanium dioxide (TiO2/CNT), and iron supported on carbon nanotubes (Fe/CNT). SMX removal was evaluated by catalytic ozonation, photocatalysis, catalytic oxidation with hydrogen peroxide, and combinations of these processes. The evolution of the SMX concentration during reaction time, the mineralization degree, the toxicity of the treated solution, and the formation of organic intermediates and ions were monitored. Ozonation catalyzed by Fe/CNT and CNT and photocatalytic ozonation in the presence of CNT presented the fastest degradation of SMX, whereas photocatalytic ozonation with CNT showed the best results in terms of organic matter removal (92% of total organic carbon (TOC) depletion). Total mineralization of the solution and almost complete reduction of toxicity was only achieved in the photocatalytic ozonation with H2O2 and Fe/CNT catalysts. The compound 3-amino-5-methylisoxazole was one of the first intermediates formed during SMX degradation. p-Benzoquinone was only formed in photocatalysis. Oxalic and oxamic acids were also detected and in most of the catalytic processes they appeared in small amounts. Ion concentrations increased with the reaction time.

Abstract In this study, regeneration of spent granular activated carbon (GAC) with reactive dye by hydroxyl and sulfate radical based advanced oxidation processes (Microwave (MW) + Persulfate (PS)), (Fe(II) + PS), and (O3 + H2O2) were evaluated. The adsorption of the dye to the GAC surface was characterized by chemisorption and Langmuir isotherm. Regeneration processes have been optimized by the Response Surface Methodology to determine the operating conditions that will provide the highest adsorptive capacity. The optimum conditions of (MW + PS), (Fe (II) + PS), and (O3 + H2O2) processes were (process PS anion of 45.52 g/L, pH of 11.4, MW power of 126 W, duration of 14.56 min), ( Fe (II) of 3.58 g/L, PS anion of 73.5 g/L, duration of 59.8 min, pH of 10.9) and (H2O2 of 2.8 mole/L, ozone dose of 98%, duration of 32.8 min, pH of 5.3), respectively. For (MW + PS), (Fe (II) + PS), and (O3 + H2O2) processes, the adsorptive capacity under optimum conditions were found as 4.36, 8.89 and 8.12 mg dye / g GAC respectively. For (Fe (II) + PS) and (O3 + H2O2) processes these values are approximately equal to the adsorptive capacity of raw GAC (8.01 mg dye / g GAC). The predicted values of the adsorption capacities by the obtained models were in good agreement with the actual experimental results. PROMETHEE approach was used in the preference of the appropriate regeneration process. The adsorptive capacity of regenerated GAC, operating cost of the regeneration process, change in the adsorptive capacity during the regeneration cycle and carbon mass loss criteria were taken into account. The order of preference of regeneration processes was determined as (Fe (II) + PS)> (MW + PS)> (O3 + H2O2) considering all criteria.

Synthetic solutions of flutamide were subject to degradation using three advanced oxidation systems, namely UV/TiO2, UV/H2O2 and UV/H2O2/TiO2. Optimum conditions and degradation kinetics has been established for all three systems. The experimental results showed that all three systems can be successfully used for flutamide degradation with efficiencies higher than 99% and that advanced oxidation processes are showing good potential for degradation of organic pollutants that cannot be suitable removed/degraded using conventional wastewater treatment processes.

In this review article, we summarize the current knowledge about the applicability of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) such as UV/H2O2, Fenton and photo-Fenton for removal of textile dyes from wastewater and the effect of operational parameters (initial dye concentration, initial H2O2 concentration, initial Fe2+ concentration and initial pH) on these processes. Numerous studies have reported the use of AOPs for degradation of textile dyes, and the results show that they are very effective. By comparing the results of the previous studies, it seems that the photo- Fenton process is more efficient than the Fenton and UV/H2O2 process.

Abstractp-Anisidine being a component of wastewater generated through dye and pharmaceutical industries is highly toxic and carcinogenic in nature. Therefore, its presence in wastewater requires prior treatment before its disposal from the point of safety of human and aquatic life. Fenton’s oxidation is a type of advanced oxidation processes which is efficient, ecofriendly and reliable, and this was not studied for the removal of p-anisidine from wastewater. In this study, the effect of influent pH, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) concentration and ferrous ion (Fe2+) concentration on the removal of p-anisidine by Fenton’s reagent was carried out on a laboratory scale. All samples were examined for initial and final concentrations of p-anisidine using UV–Vis spectrophotometry, and also initial and final COD was analyzed. p-Anisidine shows maximum absorbance at 296 nm. At pH 2.5 and [H2O2]/[Fe2+] of 70:1 for the initial p-anisidine concentration of 0.5 mM and for 24 h reaction time, the maximum removal of p-anisidine was found to be 88.95% and maximum COD removal was 76.43%.

The degradation of nitrobenzene using some advanced oxidation processes (O3/UV, O3/UV/H2O2 and O3/UV/Fe(III)) has been investigated. In the combined O3/UV process, the effect of pH and ozone was studied. In the other combinations, the influence of the amount of hydrogen peroxide and ferric ion in the degradation rate and TOC evolution, has been studied. Under our conditions, the combination O3/UV did not improve the degradation rate obtained by ozonation. The best TOC decrease was obtained when the O3/UV process was carried out at low ferric ion concentrations.
