Photolysis methods are environmentally clean and are included in handbooks of the best available technologies. Experiments performed in this study were aimed at revealing kinetic relationships of the photochemical degradation of dihydric phenols in aqueous solutions under the action of active species. All the processes were performed using a flow-through laboratory installation. A 9 W, 254 nm OSMAR special ozone-free bactericidal lamp (Finland) was chosen as a UV radiation source. The residence time of the model solution in the reactor was varied from 20 to 120 s. Quantitative determination of dihydric phenols was performed by the spectrophotometric method. Hydrogen peroxide (3% solution) and potassium persulfate were chosen as oxidizing additives. The potential of the UV radiation and oxidative treatment for efficient removal of dihydric phenols from water was evaluated. Photooxidation of pyrocatechol, resorcinol, and hydroquinone in aqueous solution in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and potassium persulfate was performed. The oxidants were taken in amount from stoichiometric to fivefold excess relative to the stoichiometry. The photochemical degradation of dihydric phenols can be performed with up to 99% efficiency.

One of the ways to solve them is photocatalytic decomposition of organic pollutants in wastewater. This method attracts researchers’ attention as being simple and cheap. Powdered semiconductor oxide materials exhibiting good adsorption properties toward organic compounds, photochemical stability, and nontoxicity are mainly used as photocatalysts. Tin(IV), titanium(IV), zinc(II), and cerium(IV) oxides exhibit such properties. The possibility of using as photocatalysts thin-film materials, which can be readily separated from the treated water, has been demonstrated recently.
