Water Treatment Using Advanced Oxidation Processes: Application Perspectives, Charles R. Gilmour
Water Treatment Using Advanced Oxidation Processes: Application Perspectives, Charles R. Gilmour
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) using hydroxyl radicals and other oxidative radical species are being studied extensively for removal of organic compounds from various waste streams. However, large scale applications of these highly effective technologies in water and wastewater treatment are still very limited due to cost and inadequate information about the resultant water quality. This study focuses on the evaluation of the upstream processing and downstream post treatment analysis of selective AOPs. In the first stage of research, the performance of a proprietary catalyst (VN-TiO2) was compared with the industry standard P25 TiO2, for the use …
