This comparison was undertaken on three models of natural organic compounds : an aquatic fulvic acid, a protein and a disaccharide. The first results showed the following order of relative efficiency: O3/TiO2 > O3/H2O2 > O3 as far as Total Organic Carbon (TOC) removal was concerned. 相似文献
The batch reactor designed for the studies consisted of a cylindrical section for holding effluent, and a top spherical section for ozone/oxygen mixture. The reactor proved to be effective for controlling ozone dose. The variation in the applied ozone dose was less than 5 mg/L.
Bleach and primary effluents were treated with 50 and 100 mg/L ozone doses. Duplicate experiments were conducted for these effluents. Secondary effluent was studied for 50,100,150 and 200 mg/L ozone doses. Six replicate experiments were conducted for 50 and 100 mg/L ozone doses, whereas two experiments were carried out for 150 mg/L and one experiment for 200 mg/L ozone dose.
The results were analyzed using 't' test for paired experiments and ANOVA table for statistical confirmation. Residuals were plotted to check the assumptions of constant variance and normal distribution. The results indicated that 50 and 100 mg O3/L effectively removed color from bleach effluent and primary effluent, but did not significantly change the BOD. Ozone was found to be effective for secondary effluent, as BOD5 was increased by 65% for 50 and 100% for 100 mg O3/L doses. The corresponding reduction in color was 62% and 82%, respectively. Ke and Lo values for the BOD equation were calculated by using the non-linear least square method for the BOD equation, giving joint confidence regions for the calculated parameters. It was concluded that ozone is most effective for the removal of color and the increase of BOD in secondary effluent. 相似文献
Samples of logyard run-off were obtained from two British Columbia coastal sawmills. Ranges obtained for measured parameters of these samples were as follows: COD 2400-8700 mg/L, tannins and lignins 160-2500 mg/L, BOD 190-1900 mg/L, acute (Microtox) toxicity EC50 2%–27% v/v. Centrifuged samples were treated with ozone doses up to approximately 0.5 mg ozone/mg COD in a lab-scale reactor.
Ozonation was found to significantly reduce toxicity (80%-90%), tannin and lignin (TL) (90%-95%) and dehydroabietic acid (DHA) (95%-100%) levels. There were moderate reductions in COD (30-35%) and BOD (15%-25%). At slightly acidic to neutral pH, pH had no effect on the rate of COD oxidation; TL and toxicity removal were slightly improved in neutral solutions compared to acidic ones, while DHA removal significantly improved 相似文献
In order to exclude its toxic effect on the pulmonary epithelium, the medical ozone/oxygen mixture is administered so that exposure of the respiratory tract is avoided at all times, i.e., without the disturbing effects of its odor. 相似文献
All these considerations have led us to use static mixers to transfer ozone into water. This process enables us to control the ozone concentration in water and detention time. It is a very simple system, with very low maintenance requirements due to the lack of moving parts. Civil engineering is minimized. A pilot scale study is presented here. It took place at the Méry-sur-Oise water treatment plant, on a pilot plant working at 8-12 m3/h. It is composed of a static mixer for the transfer of ozone from gas to liquid, linked to an air lift to separate gas from liquid, providing ozonated water.
The optimization of transfer was achieved by studying the impact of water flow, gas flow and ozone concentration in the gas. It is possible to reach 90% of transfer in less than 15 s. Headloss (ΔP) across the mixer is a function of gas and water flows and remains economically very acceptable as 0.15 bar for 12 m3/h.
Atrazine removal was studied using a static mixer, an air lift and a contact pipe 80-m long, providing an optimum contact time phase, working as a plug flow reactor. Ozone and H2O2/O3 treatments were compared. The maximum reduction of atrazine concentrations (e.g., for an infinite contact time) is a function of the amount of transferred ozone, but H2O2 influences the kinetics of the reaction. In the presence of H2O2 with a ratio of H2O2 to O3 of 0.4 w/w, maximum elimination is reached in 2 min 30 s.
The effect of such treatments on environmental bacteria also was followed. A counting of total germs at 20°C showed a decrease of 1- to 3-logs 10 after 1 min 30 s of contact time for about 2 mg/L of transferred ozone. No significant difference between treatments with or without H2O2 was shown. The same conclusions were obtained from heterotrophic plate counts (37°C) and epifluorescence countings. 相似文献
The direct reaction between substrates and ozone predominated at lower pH, which resulted in the efficient oxidation of the olefin, DCPE. At higher pH, ozonation resulted in more efficient oxidation of the chlorinated alkanes, with a corresponding decrease in the efficiency of DCPE oxidation. Consistent results were observed for ozone/H2O2 and ozone/UV treatment. Due to slow UV-induced decomposition of H2O2, the process using H2O2/UV (254 nm) resulted in very slow oxidation of all four compounds.
The total ozone requirement to achieve a given degree of elimination (to 37% of the original concentration), δ0.37, was used to assess the combined effects of the direct and indirect reactions for different types of waters. 相似文献
Further developments are expected in the field of lamp construction and also improvement of reactor geometry. A better knowledge of the aging of the lamps is required, as well as of the photochemical reactions of oxygen in the technologies applied.
Systems presently available are most promising for application on small scale or in areas of public water distribution which have no developed structure.
- oxido-flocculation, using Fe2+, H2O2
- inter-oxidation, using O3, H2O2 and eventually an heterogeneous catalyst.
- disinfection, using UV, O3 and H2O2 combinations.
Results show that triazines can be removed by all these processes with different efficiencies. At full scale, the O3/H2O2 process presents the best performances from an economical and technical point of view. 相似文献
Generally, increasing levels of CH4 and CO at constant NOX levels will increase O3 and suppress OH. A rough estimate of possible global changes shows tropospheric O3 increasing ?10% from 1980 to 2030 and OH decreasing ?10% during that period. When calculations are performed assuming that stratospheric ozone depletion and climate warming occur at anticipated rates during the same period, tropospheric O3 enhancement and OH loss in nonurban areas are both reduced relative to changes assuming that only CH4 and CO emissions change.
Regional changes in surface-level O3, OH and the water-soluble oxidant H2O2 are estimated for the year 2030. Increases in CO and CH4 suppress OH and enhance O3 and H2O2 in nonpolluted (low NOX) areas. In urban environments (background NOX > 1 ppbv), increases in CO and CH4 add significantly to all three oxidants, O3, OH and H2O2. Changes in and near urban areas may be of greatest magnitude, but the high levels of OH (and H2O2) found in the tropics indicate that perturbations in that region could dominate future global oxidant changes. 相似文献
Two different ozone application modes were investigated using two specially designed ozone reactor systems. System I consisted of a two-phased reactor which introduced the total amount of ozone to the wastewater in single instance with proper mixing. System II provided ozone to wastewater at a desired rate by controlling the flow and concentration of the ozone/oxygen gas mixture in a once-through flow mode. 相似文献
Prechlorination was not conducted in the ongoing pilotplant experiment of an advanced water purification process with ozone and granular activated carbon. It is necessary, therefore, to oxidize manganese by the oxidative effect of ozone instead of prechlorination.
It is important for the treatment of manganese to adjust the ozone dosage because manganese is oxidized up to the soluble septavalent state by the surplus ozone. Since ozone does not continue to exist for very long in water, though its disinfecting power is high, final disinfection by chlorine is required. 相似文献
The experiments were conducted both on a synthetic water, with or without addition of humic substances, and on raw water from the Moulin-Papon dam. While iron was easily removed by simply increasing the pH measurement from 8.2 to 8.5 without intermediate oxidation, ozonation applied to water with a pH of nearly 8.4 did not enable the manganese to be removed with a low ozone dose (about 1 mg/L) unless a significant amount of bicarbonates (120 to 130 mg/L as CaCO3) were injected prior to the ozonation-filtration stage.
As it removes the manganese from the water, intermediate ozonation also removes the abatement of organics on the filters, and lowers the THM buildup potential. 相似文献
Two factors appear to control the rate of this catalytic reaction process: (1) the size and dispersion of the silver crystals and surface area of the supporting bed; and (2) the volume of oxygen in solution. The source of the oxygen can be atmospheric oxygen dissolved in the water or, for a greatly enhanced reaction rate, dissolved ozone produced by an ozone generator. In this process, oxygen molecules absorbed onto the catalyst surface are subsequently transferred to other oxidizable substrates including bacteria and viruses.
These catalytic oxidizing reactions exhibit two properties of significance in the sanitation of water. First, because oxygen on the catalyst surface reacts with both living and nonliving substrates, bacteria or viruses which are in the water flowing over the catalyst-containing medium are killed or inactivated on contact by the oxidizing reactions (i.e., without requiring the release of metals into water). Second, oxygen also is transferred to oxidizable inorganics (such as bromide ion) to generate readily measurable and relatively stable “residual” oxidizers/disinfectants that continue to sanitize water downstream.
Results of this Author's experiments have been independently replicated by sources from the University of Arizona, and at Herbert V. Shuster, Inc. Laboratories in Massachusetts. 相似文献
In this research compounds of the different classes were used: glyoxal, pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid and naphthalene-1,5-disulfonic acid. Depending on the classes of compounds in some cases the elimination rates of the initial compounds is enhanced by using UV/TiO2/O3 compared to UV/O3 or O3 alone. But in all cases greatest DOC elimination is achieved by using UV/TiO2/O3. 相似文献
Greatly enhanced mass transfer coefficients kL are measured whilst simultaneously maintaining low ozone loss. Comparisons of kL and volumetric coefficient, kL a values, are made with more conventional packed or bubble columns.
Acetic acid, 2-propanol and 4-nitrophenol, representing a wide reactivity range, are used to elucidate the applicability of rotating contactors in effluent treatment. It has been possible to study the effects of surface activity on mass transfer with subsequent reaction and to generate design data for the next generation of rotating contactors. 相似文献
The raw water obtained from 100 different wells will be purified by a water treatment plant of 150,000 m3/day capacity. Considering the high iron content (0.05–0.15 mg/L) and manganese content (0.05–0.2 mg/L), the raw water fails to comply with the requirements of the potable water standard.
Since 1990, over a period of three years, we conducted water purification experiments in several stages. In these, three methods of oxidizing as well as single and double layer open rapid filters were applied to oxidize the manganese (and, to a lesser extent, the water) present in dissolved form, resp., to destroy various living organisms.
In the course of the experiments, it became clear that the chlorine and chlorine + air methods are efficient in case of a small quantity of iron to be oxidized and only 20–25% of the dissolved manganese content could be oxidized.
Neither of the two methods could ensure firm management of microbiological and bacteriological characteristics. The best results were obtained by ozone oxidation, in which case the chemical oxidizing process was almost fully completed and even the chlorine-resistant living organisms could be destroyed.
On the basis of the experiments carried out, the investment program of the water treatment plant was worked out and the conditions of an international tender were compiled whose winner will be commissioned to build up the water works in the time period 1993–1996. One of the main steps of the proposed technology is the ozone treatment. 相似文献
Nb2O5(s) + 3Cl2 (g) + 3CO(g) = 2NbOCl3 (g) + 3CO2(g).
Up to 60% conversion, the amount of volatilized product was found to be directly proportional to the time of reaction. The external surface area of the pellets remains unchanged up to this stage while the intergranular morphology changes.
These results were compared with reaction rates of commercial pyrochlore concentrate in order to establish the fundamental reaction stages of the process of extraction of Nb2O5 from pyrochlore. 相似文献
The effect of humic acid and bicarbonate on the removal of TCB was studied. At 1.6 mg/L humic acid, 92–95% of the TCB was oxidized by the processes studied. The removal of TCB by ozone alone was significantly affected by the presence of bicarbonate ion. For the other processes at 10 mM bicarbonate, approximately 80% of the TCB was oxidized. 相似文献
The operation of these water treatment systems has shown that safe and high quality pool water is obtained reliably and economically. One pool (Main Pool) is of Olympic size, the other (Learner pool) is designed especially for use by children. Both pools utilize a full corona discharge ozone water treatment system. They were the first ozone systems in the U.S. to be built for public pools using the process of ozonation, flocculation, filtration, ozone removal and residual chlorination.
An extensive testing program was initiated in cooperation with the Wisconsin Department of Health. The bacteriological water quality from these swimming pools was in compliance with Wisconsin State Health Regulations and the German DIN Standard 19,643.
The first year of operation of the Peck Aquatic Center has shown that the corona discharge ozone pool water treatment process can:
1) Operate reliably in a public swimming pool environment without the need for highly or special operator qualifications.
2) Produce continuously bacteria- and virus-free pool water without the harmful and unpleasant effects of chlorine.
3) Creates a user constituency group praising and promoting the use of “minimal chlorine swimming” in the community. 相似文献
For equivalent contact times, it was found that two orders of magnitude more E. coli survived under the second post-ozonation condition when compared with the first condition. There was also a significant difference associated with the mixing intensity in the contactor, with the higher power input resulting in less efficient inactivation of E. coli.
The results confirm the importance of designing an ozone contactor to promote the maintenance of aqueous ozone in the contactor. In addition, optimum ozone mass-transfer may require different contacting conditions than those required for optimum disinfection performance. It was concluded that the design of ozone contactors should consider the use of at least two-stages: one optimized for ozone mass-transfer and one optimized for disinfection contacting. 相似文献
