The oxidation by ozone of several chlorophenols (CPs): 4-chlorophenol, 2,4-dichlorophenol, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, 2,3,4, 6-tetrachlorophenol, tetracholorocatechol (3,4, 5,6-tetrachloro-2-hydroxy phenol) and 4-chloroguaiacol (4-chloro-2-methoxy phenol), is studied in order to provide values of the overall rate constant for the reaction between ozone and these chlorophenols. Single ozonation experiments of 4-chlorophenol were conducted in an homogeneous system, and ozonation reactions of CP mixtures were performed in a heterogeneous system, leading to the evaluation of the overall ozonation rate constants in acidic aqueous solutions. These second order rate constants increase several order of magnitude with the pH as does the degree of deprotonation of the dissolved compounds (i.e. from 10(3) to 10(9) l/(mols) for different CPs). The specific rate constants for the ozonation of the non-dissociated and dissociated forms of the studied CPs are also determined and reported. The values obtained allow calculation of the overall rate constants and prediction of the reactivities of the several CPs at different operating conditions in the whole range of pH.
