Abstract The traditional wastewater treatment plants are mostly not designed to deal with polar micropollutants such as pharmaceuticals. Therefore, antibiotics must be completely removed before their emission ecosystems. Catalytic ozonation is used increase the efficiency of sole further. In present study, semi-batch experiments were conducted investigate and catalytic in degradation oxy-tetrac...

The feasibility of ozonation process for 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (2-MBT) removal follows from results of ozonation of the model wastewater. Total removal of 2-MBT was observed after 20 minutes of ozonation. Very good reproducibility of repeated ozonation trials including sampling and analysis was observed. However, the majority of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) ...

This study investigates the ozonation of 2-mercaptothiazoline (2-MT). The 2-MT is one of the important organic additives for the electroplating solution of the printed wiring board industry and has been widely used as a corrosion inhibitor in many industrial processes. It is of concern for the aquatic pollution control especially in the wastewaters. Semibatch ozonation experiments in the comple...

Wells–Dawson tungsten heteropolyacid (H6P2W18O62) has been applied as an effective heterogeneous catalyst for one-pot synthesis of spiro[4H-pyran-3,3’-oxindoles] via reaction of various isatins, malonitrile and 1,3-dicarbonyl compound in water. The corresponding products were obtained in high yields. The catalysts were easily recycled and reused without loss of their catalytic activity. 

In this study, the pilot apparatus combined with sand filtration, ozonation and ultrafiltration was established. Wastewater from the secondary treatment effluent in the new-developed community was taken as the sample for looking into the feasibility of domestic wastewater reuse and recycling. The test results by sand filtration, sand filtration/ultrafiltration, sand filtration/ozonation, and sa...

This study investigates the ozonation of 2-naphthalenesulfonate (2-NS) combined with ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Naphthalenesulfonic acids are of importance as dye intermediates for the dye and textile auxiliary industries. Its derivatives, such as 2-NS, have been found in rivers and tannery effluents causing pollution problems. Thus, the 2-NS is of concern for the aquatic pollution control esp...

The efficacy of ozone and ultraviolet light, used in combination, to inactivate Listeria monocytogenes in fresh (9% NaCl, 91.86% transmittance at 254 nm) and spent chill brines (20.5% NaCl, 0.01% transmittance at 254 nm) was determined. Preliminary studies were conducted to optimize parameters for the ozonation of “fresh” and “spent” brines. These include diffuser design, comparison of kit to s...
