Modification of the standard Neutral Ozone Decomposition Model
ABSTRACT The modified Staehelin, Buhler, and Hoigné model for aqueous ozone decomposition was tested over a wide range of hydroxyl radical scavenger concentrations at a pH of 7.1-7.2. Results from these experiments showed that the modified model appeared to overpredict the residual hydroxyl radical probe compound, tetrachloroethylene, concentration.
Globally mankind now recognizes that it has to protect nature from industrial operations.
Historically, nature usually managed to evolve and protect itself, however, humanity needs to step in and choose effective solutions to avoid pollution.
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), uniting together ozone and high output ultraviolet technologies, in conjunction with hydrogen peroxide and catalyst, for the reduction of residual organic compounds and TOC, may offer a powerful water treatment solution.
