Catalytic wet oxidation of lactose

Heterogeneous catalytic wet air oxidation of refractory organic pollutants in industrial wastewaters: a review.

Catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) is one of the most economical and environmental-friendly advanced oxidation process. It makes a promising technology for the treatment of refractory organic pollutants in industrial wastewaters. Various heterogeneous catalysts including noble metals and metal oxides have been extensively studied to enhance the efficiency of CWAO. The present review is concerne...

Degradation of paracetamol by catalytic wet air oxidation and sequential adsorption - Catalytic wet air oxidation on activated carbons.

The concern about the fate of pharmaceutical products has raised owing to the increasing contamination of rivers, lakes and groundwater. The aim of this paper is to evaluate two different processes for paracetamol removal. The catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) of paracetamol on activated carbon was investigated both as a water treatment technique using an autoclave reactor and as a regenerativ...

Wet Air Oxidation and Catalytic Wet Air Oxidation for Refinery Spent Caustics Degradation

The work focuses on evaluating wet air oxidation and catalytic wet air oxidation technique to degrade refinery spent caustics (original COD is 250,781 mg/L) in a milder operation conditions (150-200 ̊C, 0.2-2.5MPa). The results show that: in non-catalyst WAO, the highest COD degradation conversion could reach about 75% when 200 ̊C, 2MPa oxygen and 300rpm were used. At every temperature, the react...

Design of an automated fixed bed reactor used for a catalytic wet oxidation process

Treatment of polluted industrial wastes is one of the challenging research topics that occupy an important position in various chemical processes. Wet Air Oxidation (WAO) is one of the emerging processes suited for the treatment of special aqueous wastes. The system consists of an oxidation in the liquid phase of the organic matter by molecular oxygen at high temperature (200-325°C) and high pr...
