Bromate formation control by enhanced ozonation: A critical review

Ruchi Joshi et al.

Summary: In the past two decades, ozone-based advanced oxidation processes (EOPs) have been extensively studied for the removal of emerging organic contaminants in water. However, the formation of carcinogenic bromate during EOPs treatment has become a challenge for the utilization of these processes in bromide-containing water. This review critically examines the mechanisms, influencing factors, advantages and disadvantages, and control strategies for bromate formation by four EOPs, and compares their economic and technical characteristics.

Degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) by water falling film DBD Plasma/Persulfate: Reactive species identification and their role in SMX degradation

Kefeng Shang et al.

Summary: The study shows that persulfate can enhance the degradation of sulfamethoxazole in a water falling film dielectric barrier discharge plasma reactor, with PMS performing better than PDS. Increasing the applied voltage, solution pH, and PMS/PDS concentration promotes SMX degradation. The reactive species generated from the activation of PMS/PDS by discharge plasma play a key role in SMX degradation, with center dot OH and SO4 center dot- being particularly important.

Treatment of a mixture of pharmaceuticals, herbicides and perfluorinated compounds by powdered activated carbon and ozone: Synergy, catalysis and insights into non-free •OH contingent mechanisms

Mirna Alameddine et al.

Summary: Powdered activated carbon (PAC) acts as a strong adsorbent and catalyst for ozonation processes in treating micropollutants. The simultaneous addition of ozone (O-3) and PAC enhances the removal and degradation rates of micropollutants, with scavenging actions of hydroxyl radicals ((OH)-O-center dot) and other reactive oxygen species. Detailed studies show that the presence of PAC does not boost the generation of free hydroxyl radicals in the decomposition of ozone at neutral pH, but rather produces adsorbed hydroxyl radicals and other oxidizing species.
