Removal of disinfection by-product precursors with ozone-UV advanced oxidation process
Abstract
The efficacy of using ozone (O3), ultraviolet irradiation (UV) and the combined O3-UV advanced oxidation process (AOP) to remove 2 classes of disinfection by-product (DBP) precursors from raw surface water samples have been evaluated and compared. In particular, trihalomethane and haloacetic acids formation potentials were measured. Laboratory batch scale experiments were carried out as a function of ozone and UV dosage in order to study the removal kinetics. It is concluded that the combined O3-UV AOP is more effective than either the ozone or UV treatment alone. Ozone-UV AOP is capable of mineralizing up to 50% of the total organic carbon from the raw source water at an ozone dose of 0.62+/-0.019 mg O3/mL and a UV dose of 1.61 W s/cm2. In addition, O3-UV AOP can reduce trihalomethane formation potential by roughly 80% and haloacetic acids formation potential by roughly 70% at the same ozone and UV dosage.

“Combined AOPs, i.e., O 3 /UV and O 3 /H 2 O 2 , showed better elimination of DBP precursors (using TOC, AOX-FP, THM-FP, and/or HAA-FP as indicators) than O 3 and UV alone for both SPW and surface water treatment (Chin and Bérubé, 2005;Glauner et al., 2005a).”

In the citing paper
“The removal efficiency of TOC, THM-FP and HAA-FP after 1 h O 3 /UV treatment reached 50%, 80% and 70%, respectively, and reaction rate constants were 0.04, 0.12 and 0.15 min -1 , respectively (Chin and Bérubé, 2005).”

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.
