Abstract
In this study, the treatment of synthetic wastewater containing 10 mg/L Bisphenol A (BPA) has been investigated by the catalytic and photocatalytic ozonation process. n.TiO2 nanocatalysts have been used in catalytic (COP) and photocatalytic (PCOP) ozonation processes. Optimum parameters have been determined as pH 6.32, 1200 mg/L ozone dose, 50 mg/L n.TiO2 catalyst dose and 12.5 min reaction time for COP. Optimum parameters have been found as pH 6.32, 1200 mg/L ozone dose, 50 mg/L n.TiO2 catalyst dose, 18 Watt UV light intensity, and 10 min reaction time for PCOP. The removal efficiencies of BPA have been obtained as 95.51% and 98.09% for COP and PCOP, respectively. Kinetic analyses showed that BPA removal has been carried out Pseudo second order kinetics with R2 values of 99.1 for both processes.
期刊介绍:
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution is an international, interdisciplinary journal on all aspects of pollution and solutions to pollution in the biosphere. This includes chemical, physical and biological processes affecting flora, fauna, water, air and soil in relation to environmental pollution. Because of its scope, the subject areas are diverse and include all aspects of pollution sources, transport, deposition, accumulation, acid precipitation, atmospheric pollution, metals, aquatic pollution including marine pollution and ground water, waste water, pesticides, soil pollution, sewage, sediment pollution, forestry pollution, effects of pollutants on humans, vegetation, fish, aquatic species, micro-organisms, and animals, environmental and molecular toxicology applied to pollution research, biosensors, global and climate change, ecological implications of pollution and pollution models. Water, Air, & Soil Pollution also publishes manuscripts on novel methods used in the study of environmental pollutants, environmental toxicology, environmental biology, novel environmental engineering related to pollution, biodiversity as influenced by pollution, novel environmental biotechnology as applied to pollution (e.g. bioremediation), environmental modelling and biorestoration of polluted environments.
Articles should not be submitted that are of local interest only and do not advance international knowledge in environmental pollution and solutions to pollution. Articles that simply replicate known knowledge or techniques while researching a local pollution problem will normally be rejected without review. Submitted articles must have up-to-date references, employ the correct experimental replication and statistical analysis, where needed and contain a significant contribution to new knowledge. The publishing and editorial team sincerely appreciate your cooperation.
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution publishes research papers; review articles; mini-reviews; and book reviews.
