Ozone is an excellent disinfectant and can even be used to inactivate microorganisms such as protozoa which are very resistant to conventional disinfectants. Proper rate constants for the inactivation of microorganisms are only available for six species (E ...
Disinfection of some microorganisms is characterized by a lag-phase (a minimum required ozone exposure until disinfection occurs). This phenomenon is easy to model in laboratory batch reactors but not in continuous flow mixed reactors. This paper introduce ...
Ozonation of bromide-containing waters causes the formation of bromate which is considered to be potentially carcinogenic. An investigation in Switzerland on water works using ozone (85) has shown that the new drinking water standard of 10 mug/L for bromat ...
In aqueous oxidative processes with ozone (O-3), chlorine, or chloramine, naturally occurring iodide (I-) can easily be oxidized to hypoiodous acid (HOI) which can react with natural organic matter (NOM) or he further oxidized to iodate (IO3-). Such proces ...
The influence of temperature, pH, alkalinity, and type and concentration of the dissolved organic matter (DOM) on the rate of ozone (O-3) decomposition, O-3-exposure, . OH-exposure and the ratio R-ct of the concentrations of . OH and O-3 has been studied. ...
A full-scale ozonation reactor was characterised with respect to the overall oxidation budget by coupling laboratory kinetics with reactor hydraulics. The ozone decomposition kinetics and the ratio of the OK radical to the ozone concentration were determin ...
Full-scale ozonation processes for drinking water production were characterized with a conservative (sodium chloride) and two reactive tracers (ozone, aqueous chlorine) to yield information about the hydraulics and the oxidation capacity with respect to or ...
This paper concerns an evaluation of ozone (O-3) and planetary boundary layer (PBL) dynamics over the complex topography of the Grenoble region through a combination of measurements and mesoscale model (METPHOMOD) predictions for three days, during July 19 ...
A new way of measuring ozone and water vapor in the Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL) is proposed. The method is based on the simultaneous measurement of the Raman backscattering in the UV by O2, N2 and H2O, using a single pump beam at 266 nm. The ozone conce ...
The occurrence of Cryptosporidium in raw waters and bromate formation during ozonation of bromide-containing waters leads to a difficult optimisation of ozonation processes. On the one hand inactivation of Cryptosporidium requires high ozone exposures, on ...
