USE OF SELECTED ADVANCED OXIDATION PROCESSES (AOPs) FOR WASTEWATER TREATMENT – A MINI REVIEW

نویسنده

  • A. S. STASINAKIS
چکیده

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are widely used for the removal of recalcitrant organic constituents from industrial and municipal wastewater. The aim of this study was to review the use of titanium dioxide/UV light process, hydrogen peroxide/UV light process and Fenton’s reactions in wastewater treatment. The main reactions and the operating parameters (initial concentration of the target compounds, amount of oxidation agents and catalysts, nature of the wastewater etc) affecting these processes are reported, while several recent applications to wastewater treatment are presented. The advantages and drawbacks of these methods are highlighted, while some of the future challenges (decrease of operational cost, adoption of strategies for processes integration) are discussed.
