Demonstrating Advanced Oxidation/Biofiltration for Pharmaceutical Removal in Wastewater PDF

Description
This project addresses the need to remove trace organic compounds (TOrC) from wastewater, as well as potentially hazardous oxidation products. The general goal was to evaluate the efficacy of UV-based advanced oxidation (UV/AOP) and UV/AOP in combination with bio-filtration, as an integrated treatment solution to degrade TOrC. The leading hypothesis was that UV/AOP may break down recalcitrant TOrC, generating biodegradable transformation products, which can be further removed by subsequent biofiltration. The first phase of the study, conducted on a bench-scale system, demonstrated the oxidation of iopromide by UV/H2O2 and the increased biodegradability of the transformation products (compared to the parent compound).
