Even though ozone has been applied for a long time for disinfection and oxidation in water treatment, there is lack of critical information related to transformation of organic compounds. This has become more important in recent years, because there is con ...
The kinetics of oxidation and disinfection processes during ozonation in a full-scale reactor treating secondary wastewater effluent were investigated for seven ozone doses ranging from 0.21 to 1.24 g O-3 g(-1) dissolved organic carbon (DOG). Substances re ...
Ozonation, which is widely used for drinking water disinfection, has recently been applied to mitigate potentially harmful effects of micropollutants (e.g., pharmaceuticals, personal care products, pesticides, etc.) present in municipal wastewater effluent ...
In water treatment dissolved organic matter (DOM) is typically the major sink for chemical oxidants. The resulting changes in DOM, such as its optical properties have been measured to follow the oxidation processes. However, such measurements contain only ...
In Switzerland, newly introduced regulation mandates the upgrade of major wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) with an advanced treatment step such as ozonation. This offers a unique opportunity to study the inactivation of enteric virus during ozonation of ...
Silver nanoparticles used in consumer products are likely to be released into municipal wastewater. Transformation reactions, most importantly sulfidation, lead to the formation of nanoscale silver sulfide (nano-Ag2S) particles. In wastewater treatment pla ...
Determining optimal ozone doses for organic micropollutant elimination during wastewater ozonation is challenged by the presence of a large number of structurally diverse micropollutants for varying wastewater matrice compositions. A chemical kinetics appr ...
Recent evaluations of potable reuse treatment trains suggest that the use of UV and UV/H2O2 may become increasingly common, particularly in systems employing ozone and/or biofiltration. This study provides a summary of photolysis rate constants and (OH)-O- ...
Ozonation, is effective in improving the quality of, municipal wastewater effluents by eliminating organic micropollutants. Nevertheless, ozone process design is still limited by (i) the large number of structurally diverse micropollutants and (ii) the var ...
Bromide measurements and mass balances in the catchments of major Swiss rivers revealed that chemical industry and municipal waste incinerators are the most important bromide sources and account for similar to 50% and similar to 20%, respectively, of the s ...
