Kinetics and mechanism of bacterial disinfection by chlorine dioxide.
Survival data are presented for a fecal strain of Escherichia coli exposed to three concentrations of chlorine dioxide at four temperatures. Chick's first-order reaction equation is generalized to a pseudo nth-order model. Nonlinear least squares curve-fitting of the survival data to the nth order model was performed on an analogue computer. The data were observed to follow fractional order kin...
متن کاملChlorine in water disinfection
Disinfection of drinking-water is one of the main achievements of our time in the protection of public health. The use of chlorine for the destruction of microbiological pathogens is essential to protect the public from outbreaks of waterborne disease. Chlorine, as well as other disinfectants, produces a variety of chemical by-products. The risk from the presence of microbial pathogens in drink...
متن کاملKinetics and mechanism of the chlorine dioxide-trithionate reaction.
The trithionate-chlorine dioxide reaction has been studied spectrophotometrically in a slightly acidic medium at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C in acetate/acetic acid buffer monitoring the decay of chlorine dioxide at constant ionic strength (I = 0.5 M) adjusted by sodium perchlorate. We found that under our experimental conditions two limiting stoichiometries exist and the pH, the concentration of the reactant...
متن کاملTomato Seed Disinfection with Chlorine
Chlorine is a commonly used disinfectant for tomato seed contaminated with the bacterial pathogens causing canker, spot, and speck diseases. Previous research has attempted to determine chlorine effectiveness by testing for the presence of the pathogen after treatment of infected seed lots. Even with the most advanced techniques, the accuracy of these methods is questionable, and can underestim...
متن کاملDegradation of clofibric acid in UV/chlorine disinfection process: kinetics, reactive species contribution and pathways
As a potential endocrine disruptor, clofibric acid (CA) was investigated in this study for its degradation kinetics and pathways in UV/chlorine process. The results showed that CA in both UV photolysis and UV/chlorine processes could be degraded via pseudo-first-order kinetics, while it almost could not be degraded in the dark chlorination process. The observed rate constant (kobs) in UV photol...
