Decomposition of ozone in water: rate of initiation by hydroxide ions and hydrogen peroxide

Staehelin, Johannes., Hoigne, Juerg.·1982·Environmental Science & Technology

Abstract

The initiation of ozone decomposition in "pure water" is first order in O3 and OH- concentration and kO3,OH- becomes 70 ± 7 M-1 s-1 when a sequence of reactions is assumed by which three molecules of O3 are eliminated per primary event. The difference between this value and higher values reported in the earlier literature may be explained by interferences by radical chain reactions which have not been totally inhibited in those studies. H2O2 also reacts with O3 when present as an anion, HO2-. kO3,OH- is (2.8 ± 0.5) × 106 M-1 s-1 when it is assumed that 'two molecules of O3 are eliminated per primary event. Therefore, whenever [H2O2] > 10-7 M (pH <12), HO2- has a greater effect than OH- on the decomposition rate of O3 in water. The high reactivity of HO2- explains that H2O2 is observed as a significant intermediate in the ozonated water only if the pH is low, e.g., <6.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The utilization of light as an essential factor in photocatalysis allows for the possibility of designing the reactor or photocatalyst to enable the utilization of sunlight as a cost-effective energy source to drive the reaction.

    “The utilization of light as an essential factor in this process allows for the possibility of designing the reactor or photocatalyst in a manner that enables the utilization of sunlight as a cost-effective energy source to drive the reaction [270].”

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.
