BACKGROUND Thiabendazole, imazalil and acetamiprid, pesticides found in wastewater the citrus fruit processing industry, are recalcitrant to biological treatments. This study deals with preparation of TiO2 supported on glass beads its use as a photocatalyst compound parabolic collector (CPC) solar reactor for elimination mixture these (100 µg L−1 each) different water matrices. RESULTS The catalyst prepared exhibited good mechanical stability photocatalytic activity acetaminophen test...
The generation of hydroxyl radicals (•OH) during the chlorination air saturated solutions different hydroxyphenols (hydroquinone, resorcinol, catechol, gallic and tannic acids) at pH 7 has been determined by formation phenol (in presence benzene in excess) or 2-hydroxyterephthalic acid terephthalic acid). Formation •OH was only detected o- p-hydroxyphenols, compounds that react with chlorine electron transfer forming corresponding semiquinones/quinones. In aerated solutions, oxygen is...
The temperature dependence of the kinetics and mechanisms ozone reactions with 19 olefins 3 alkynes were investigated. second-order rate constants (kO3) for mostly in range 103–106 M–1 s–1, activation energies 17.4–37.7 kJ mol–1. In comparison, had lower kO3 (∼102 s–1) higher (36.7–48.1 mol–1). Reactivities both are mainly influenced by inductive effects substituents, steric observed cyclic olefins. 2-Buten-1,4-dial (BDA), synthesized a novel method, is toxic olefinic oxidation product from...
Nuclear energy has a great impact on the global mix. In Spain, it supplies over 20% of current requirements, demonstrating relevance nuclear power plants. These plants generate different types waste (apart from radioactive) that should be managed. For instance, activated carbon included in filters (which neutralize isotopes possible radioactive leakage) periodically replaced. Nevertheless, these carbons might present long service lives, as they have not undergone any adsorption processes....
The performance of integrated aerobic digestion and ozonation for the treatment high strength distillery wastewater (i.e., cherry stillage) is reported. Experiments were conducted in laboratory batch systems operating draw fill mode. For biological step, activated sludge from a municipal facility was used as inoculum, showing degree activity to wastewater. Thus, BOD COD overall conversions 95% 82% achieved, respectively. However, polyphenol content absorbance at 254 nm (A(254)) could not be...
