From the standpoint of coupling intensification, a ceramic membrane/ozone (CM/O3) system was developed to improve the oxidation performance of ozone. The results showed that CM/O3 system could significantly improve the ozone concentration and the generation of hydroxyl radicals (·OH) when compared to the traditional O3 bubble system. The reaction condition, such as inlet ozone concentration and ozone flow, ceramic membrane pore size, transmembrane pressure, and temperature on the concentration of ozone in the liquid phase and the formation of ·OH, has been considered. Experimental results showed that the concentration of ozone and OH in the liquid increased with the increase in the inlet ozone concentration and ozone flow. Moreover, a certain degree of reduction in membrane pores was facilitated to intensify the mass transfer of ozone. The increase of pressure was able to raise the concentration of ozone. However, there was a slight effect on ·OH concentration. As for the temperature, a low-temperature situation was conducive to strengthen ozone dissolution. In terms of the generation of ·OH, a high-temperature situation was a better favorable environment. In order to evaluate the performance of the reactor system, three treatment processes (CM/O3, CM alone and O3 alone) were compared to treat ROC.

In this paper, a needle-plate DBD ozone generator with magnetic field enhanced was designed and manufactured. The authors found the magnetic field could significantly increase the number and amplitude of current pulses, discharge current and the discharge power. The magnetic field did not change the initial discharge voltage. With the discharge voltage increased, the enhancement of magnetic field on ozone concentration was more obvious while on ozone yield was very small. The maximum increment of ozone concentration was 35.4%. With the discharge frequency increased, the magnetic field had a more positive impact on the ozone concentration. And with the same gas flow rate increased, the ozone concentration was increased by the magnetic field. Keeping the SIE constant, the ozone concentration and ozone yield at higher discharge frequency was lower than those at lower discharge frequency. With the increase of SIE, the enhancement effect of magnetic field on ozone concentration would increase.","PeriodicalId":19580,"journal":{"name":"Ozone: Science & Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2021-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79934509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cryptosporidium spp. oocysts are an issue in water treatment plants due to their reduced size and resistance to the disinfection process (e.g., chlorination). Moreover, oocysts retained on the filter media might recirculate amongst the filter backwash water (FBW). This study aimed to detect Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts artificially inoculated on the FBW and evaluate the ozone treatment performance. A synthetic FBW underwent three concentration methods followed by immunomagnetic separation: calcium carbonate flocculation, direct centrifugation, and direct centrifugation with the 7X ICN dispersion solution. The latter method was selected as it presented less interference on oocyst viability (37.2% reduction) and higher recovery (22.1%) on preliminary assays. The recovery for the commercial suspensions was 15.4 ± 3.3%, although the analytical quality performed with EasySeed® suspension obtained a recovery of 2.8 ± 0.8%. These limitations and methodologies for protozoan detection are challenging due to low recoveries, especially in complex matrices. Finally, FBW ozonation was performed on a pilot scale, and the propidium iodide dye indicated oocyst viability decreased after treatment. Oocyst inactivation was 2.83 log and 3.44 log for dosages of 7.5 mg O3 L−1 for 10 min (i.e., 75 mg min L−1) and 10 mg O3 L−1 for 5 min (i.e., 50 mg min L−1), respectively. Disinfection is a crucial pathway for addressing outbreak scenarios, and ozone treatment should be further studied.

Although agricultural, transportation, and storage management strategies have been employed to reduce the production of mycotoxins, they are not effective in eliminating mycotoxins. In this context, the application of ozone has emerged for the degradation of mycotoxins. Ozone has a strong oxidation rate and generates more free radicals, which can counter the functional groups of the mycotoxin by changing their molecular structures and forming products having lower molecular weight reduced number of double bonds, and reduced toxicity. Research indicates that ozone could be able to destroy mycotoxins without leaving any residues in the commodities.
