Hydrogen Peroxide and Ultraviolet Irradiations in Water Treatment
Abstract
Trihalomethanes (THMs) the by-products of chlorination in water treatment are recognised as a threat to public health due to their carcinogenicity. The photodegradation of THMs using hydrogen peroxide has been found to give increased removal efficiency and the outcome of the study may find, its application in designing a unit process for water treatment. Batch experiments were carried out using UV lamp of 83 W and 40% w/w Hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) in test waters between 2.5-10 pH range of chloroform, bromodichloromethane, dibromochloromethane and bromoform at 50-200 microg L(-1) initial concentration. 92-100% removal of chloroform, bromodichloromethane, dibromochloromethane and bromoform were found with 0.1% of H(2)O(2) and 90 min of UV exposure.

“Rudra et al. (2005) found that 70 min UV irradiation completely degraded THMs except for CHCl 3 (46% removal) using an initial concentration of 50 μg/L for each THM.”

In the citing paper
“It is essential to optimize H 2 O 2 dosage to the UV/H 2 O 2 system as an excess addition may result in a scavenging effect to the hydroxyl radical or light screening, eventually decreases the removal efficiency of DBPs or DBP precursors (Jo et al., 2011;Rudra et al., 2005;Sharpless and Linden, 2003;Wang et al., 2000).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
