This study presents a review on advanced oxidation processes (AOP) for simultaneous removal of NO and SO2. AOP is based on using a strong oxidant such as ozone and H2O2 which is able to generate highly reactive intermediates. The pollutant will be oxidized and removed by these intermediates. In recent years, AOP has been considered as an effective and attractive technology in the field of flue ...

An experimental study on 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) degradation in aqueous solutions by advanced oxidation process photo-Fenton type is presented. The efficiency of the oxidation process is determined by the very high oxidative potential of the OH. radicals generated by catalytic and photo-catalytic processes. The presence of the inorganic species inside the reaction medium influences the rate of th...

Approximately 10-20% of the total dyes in the world is consumed in the textile industry. The present study aimed to investigate the photocatalytic activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO) immobilized on synthetic activated carbon in the removal of the acid blue 113 dye from aqueous solutions. This experimental study was conducted in a photo-reactor with the useful volume of one liter. The eff...

This research investigated the efficiency of Advanced Oxidation Processes, Enzymatic treatment, and combined enzymatic/AOPs sequences on color remediation of CMP pulp and paper mills effluent. Regarding enzymatic treatment two kinds of fungal enzymes; Laccase (EC: 1.10.3.2) from Terametes Versicolor and Versatile Peroxidase (EC: 1.11.1.7) from Bjerkandera adusta were chosen and applied. Also, t...

The treatment of an effluent from the production of trifluraline was studied using a 1-L, semi-batch, tank-stirred glass reactor for performing three different advanced oxidation processes (photoperoxidation, Fenton, photo-Fenton). A commercial, medium-pressure mercury lamp was used for sample irradiation. The degradation was monitored by measurements of absorptiometric color reduction, UV-visi...
