Abstract Heavy metal contamination from electroplating wastewater is a serious risk to terrestrial life and public health. The complexed metal cannot be effectively removed by traditional precipitation without decomplexing. In this work, four ozone-based advanced oxidation processes, O3, O3/H2O2, O3/UV and O3/H2O2/UV to decomplex electroplating wastewater were investigated and their performance compared. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and citric acid are the most common components of electroplating wastewater. They were used as representatives to study the decomplexation and mineralization of complexes in the ozone-based advanced oxidation processes. Among all, the highest degradation and mineralization efficiency of EDTA occurred in O3/UV and was 65% and 53% in 60 min, respectively. For citric acid, the highest degradation (77%) and mineralization (56%) efficiency was observed in the O3/H2O2/UV process. This indicates that selection of the advanced oxidation process is determined by the target contaminant.

Two advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), ozonation and photo-Fenton, combined with a pilot aerobic biological reactor at field scale were employed for the treatment of industrial non-biodegradable saline wastewater (TOC around 200 mg L−1) containing a biorecalcitrant compound, α-methylphenylglycine (MPG), at a concentration of 500 mg L−1. Ozonation experiments were performed in a 50-L reactor with constant inlet ozone of 21.9 g m−3. Solar photo-Fenton tests were carried out in a 75-L pilot plant made up of four compound parabolic collector (CPC) units. The catalyst concentration employed in this system was 20 mg L−1 of Fe2 +  and the H2O2 concentration was kept in the range of 200–500 mg L−1. Complete degradation of MPG was attained after 1,020 min of ozone treatment, while only 195 min were required for photo-Fenton. Samples from different stages of both AOPs were taken for Zahn–Wellens biocompatibility tests. Biodegradability enhancement of the industrial saline wastewater was confirmed (>70% biodegradability). Biodegradable compounds generated during the preliminary oxidative processes were biologically mineralised in a 170-L aerobic immobilised biomass reactor (IBR). The global efficiency of both AOP/biological combined systems was 90% removal of an initial TOC of over 500 mg L−1.

The growing preoccupation about drinking water quality available on earth, a new order of emergent pollutants in rivers and lakes has called the attention of the scientific community, the micropollutants. These compounds come from the irregular or involuntary ejectment of substances such as pesticides, drugs, insecticides and other into the nature. By having a complex structure, the micropollutants have high resistance over the traditional water treatment to human consume. Thus, alternatives methodologies to their degradation have been studied, such as advanced oxidation process (AOPs). The AOPs are based in the formation of hydroxyls radicals (OH-) highly reactive that degrade complexes substances into lesser aggressive products as CO2 and water. Even though many methods to generate hydroxyls radicals from advanced oxidation processes exist, they differentiate on the application and viability. This review shows different methodologies using AOPs and their respective application characteristics, also some works already made in complexes substances treatment, which prove their efficiency.

High quantum yield (1.4 mol Es−1) of hydroxyl radicals (∙OH) from photolysis of chlorine under typical disinfection conditions indicates the potential of UV/chlorine coexposure in serving as both disinfection and advanced oxidation processes (AOP). In this study, photolysis of chlorine and bromine was explored in buffer and simulated natural water solutions under low-pressure UV (LPUV) and medium-pressure UV (MPUV) lamps. At pH 6.5 and 8.5, the quantum yields of bromine photolysis were 3.8 and 0.6 for MPUV, and 4.4 and 0.8 for LPUV, respectively. At pH 6.5, the photolysis of bromine was faster than that of chlorine under either MPUV or LPUV source, while at a higher pH of 8.5, the contrary was found. For all conditions tested, the presence of bromide did not significantly change the observed photolysis rate of total free halogen during the UV/chlorine process in the presence or absence of natural organic matter. Upon UV irradiation, chlorine always produces higher ∙OH concentration than bromine does. The presence of bromide results in considerable decrease of ∙OH concentration at pH 6.5, compared to that obtained from the UV/chlorine process in the absence of bromide.

Studies and research have been developed around the world on environmental pollution. Among the most diverse types of pollutants, textile dyes have attracted attention in the Brazilian Northeast. These compounds, besides being persistent, resist to the conventional treatments applied in the wastewater treatment plants. Thus, the present study evaluated the degradation of the mixture of direct red 23, direct red 227 and direct orange 26 dyes by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). It was observed that the homogeneous AOPs were more efficient, being able to degrade 100% of the chromophoric groups after the optimization of the variables [H2O2], [Fe] and pH. The reaction kinetics for the photo-Fenton process followed a pseudo-first order non-linear model, with rapid decay of the concentrations in the first 60 min. Aiming to have a methodology capable of predicting the degradation efficiency for the studied processes, it was verified that the artificial neural networks MLP 4-9-3 and MLP 5-6-3 well represent the data from the homogeneous and heterogeneous processes, respectively. A toxicity study was carried out using seeds, bacteria and microcrustaceans and it was found that the intermediate compounds formed during the treatment process act differently for each of them.

Abstract Advanced oxidation processes for the removal and destruction of hazardous organic chemicals in water and wastewater is a research area of increasing interest. Advanced oxidation processes generally consider the hydroxyl radical, OH-, the major reactive transient species. A novel process under development, utilizing high energy electrons, extends this concept to include the simultaneous formation of approximately equal concentrations of oxidizing and reducing species. Irradiation of aqueous solutions results in the formation of the aqueous electron, e−aq, hydrogen atoms, H-, and OH-. These reactive transient species initiate chemical reactions capable of destroying organic compounds in aqueous solution. This paper presents data on the removal of six common organic contaminants that have been studied at the Electron Beam Research Facility. The removal and the factors affecting removal were determined. This study focuses on halogenated ethenes, benzene and substituted benzenes. Removal is described in waters of different quality, including potable water, and raw and secondary wastewater. Removal efficiencies ranged from 85 to >99% and varied with water quality, solute concentration, dose and compound.
