UV Degradation Kinetics and Modeling of Pharmaceutical Compounds in Laboratory Grade and Surface Water via Direct and Indirect Photolysis at 254 nm
Abstract
Direct and indirect photolysis of pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) was investigated in laboratory-grade water (LGW) and a local surface water using a low-pressure ultraviolet batch reactor. The PhACs selected in this study belong to different therapeutic classes and are known to occur in environmental samples. Fundamental photolysis and advanced oxidation process parameters obtained in LGW (such as the decadic molar absorption coefficient, quantum yield, and degradation rate constants) are reported and discussed. These parameters, together with the incident photon irradiance, solution depth, and solution absorbance were used to develop UV and UV/ H202 photolysis models that were compared with experimental results obtained in the surface water. The model predicted the experimental UV photolysis removals well but underestimated the UV/H2O2 photolysis results. These models were used to discuss the effects of optical path length and H2O2 concentration on the UV-based rate constant predictions.

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.
