Abstract

This study investigates the oxidative degradation of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), a probable human carcinogen, by conventional ozonation and the advanced oxidation process ozone/hydrogen peroxide (AOP O(3)/H(2)O(2)). The rate constants of reactions of NDMA with ozone and hydroxyl radical ((*)OH) were determined to be 0.052+/-0.0016M(-1)s(-1) and (4.5+/-0.21)x10(8)M(-1)s(-1), respectively. The experiments performed with buffered deionized water varying solution pH and employing H(2)O(2) and HCO(3)(-) clearly showed that the reaction with (*)OH dominates the NDMA oxidation during ozonation. Conventional ozonation with up to 160 microM (=7.7 mgL(-1)) ozone led to less than 25% NDMA oxidation in natural waters. The AOP O(3)/H(2)O(2) required 160-320 microM ozone ([O(3)](0)/[H(2)O(2)](0)=2:1) to achieve 50-75% NDMA oxidation. However, multiple injections of ozone of the same overall dose somewhat improved the oxidant utilization efficiency by minimizing (*)OH scavenging contribution of oxidants. Methylamine (MA) was found to be a major amino product from NDMA oxidation initiated by (*)OH. The mechanism of NDMA oxidation to MA is discussed based on the results obtained in this study and the previous literature. Bromate formation may be the limiting factor for NDMA oxidation during ozonation and ozone-based AOPs in bromide-containing waters.

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.
