Advanced Oxidation Unit:-
 
 
Introduction:-
 
The advanced oxidation process (AOP) is successfully used to decompose many hazardous chemical compounds to acceptable levels, without producing additional hazardous by-products or sludge which require further handling. Advanced Oxidation Process enhances the efficiency of ozone by producing hydroxyl radical. "AOP" system is more effective & uses less ozone as compared to conventional ozone treatment. We use ozone in presence of a catalyst to treat large flow-rates of wastewater to control Color, Biological oxygen demand, Chemical oxygen demand, Fats, oils & grease etc and the treated water can be recycled.
 

Working Principle:-

 
The term advanced oxidation processes refers specifically to processes in which oxidation of organic contaminants occurs primarily through reactions with hydroxyl radicals. AOPs usually refer to a specific subset of processes that involve O3, H2O2, and/or UV light.  The most widely applied advanced oxidation processes (AOP) have been:


 
  • Peroxide/ultraviolet light (H2O2/UV)
  • Ozone/ultraviolet light (O3/UV)
  • Hydrogen peroxide/ozone (H2O2/O3)
  • Hydrogen peroxide/ozone/ultraviolet (H2O2/O3/UV) processes
 

Applications:-

 
  • Gas effluent treatment
  • water reclaim / reuse / recycling
  • drinking water supplies
  • industrial & municipal wastewater
  • process water, ultra-pure water
  • electronic & pharmaceutical industries
  • medicinal baths, sanatoriums, hospitals
  • cooling water systems
  • fish hatcheries and farm.
  • Pharmaceutical waste
 

Advantages:-

 
  • Advanced oxidation process needs less ozone and provides better results as compared to conventional ozone treatment.
  • Reduction in ozone requirement & residence time makes these systems economical to treat large flow-rates.
  • Up to 95% reduction of waste load (COD, BOD, TOC etc).
  • Total Color removal.
  • Efficient removal of organic matter such as dyes, surfactants, proteins, oils & grease etc.
  • Treatment and recycling of waste waters in textile industry, petroleum industry, food industry etc.
  • No offensive odors.
  • Automatic system.
  • Rapid reaction rates
  • Small foot print
  • Potential to reduce toxicity and possibly complete mineralization of organics treated
  • Does not concentrate waste for further treatment with methods such as membranes
  • Does not produce materials that require further treatment such as "spent carbon" from activated carbon absorption
  • Does not create sludge as with physical chemical process or biological processes (wasted biological sludge)
  • Non selective pathway allows for the treatment of multiple organics at once.
