Book Chemistry of Ozone in Water and Wastewater Treatment

Download or read book Chemistry of Ozone in Water and Wastewater Treatment written by Clemens von Sonntag and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2012-08-31 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though ozone has been applied for a long time for disinfection and oxidation in water treatment, there is lack of critical information related to transformation of organic compounds. This has become more important in recent years, because there is considerable concern about the formation of potentially harmful degradation products as well as oxidation products from the reaction with the matrix components. In recent years, a wealth of information on the products that are formed has accumulated, and substantial progress in understanding mechanistic details of ozone reactions in aqueous solution has been made. Based on the latter, this may allow us to predict the products of as yet not studied systems and assist in evaluating toxic potentials in case certain classes are known to show such effects. Keeping this in mind, Chemistry of Ozone in Water and Wastewater Treatment: From Basic Principles to Applications discusses mechanistic details of ozone reactions as much as they are known to date and applies them to the large body of studies on micropollutant degradation (such as pharmaceuticals and endocrine disruptors) that is already available. Extensively quoting the literature and updating the available compilation of ozone rate constants gives the reader a text at hand on which his research can be based. Moreover, those that are responsible for planning or operation of ozonation steps in drinking water and wastewater treatment plants will find salient information in a compact form that otherwise is quite disperse. A critical compilation of rate constants for the various classes of compounds is given in each chapter, including all the recent publications. This is a very useful source of information for researchers and practitioners who need kinetic information on emerging contaminants. Furthermore, each chapter contains a large selection of examples of reaction mechanisms for the transformation of micropollutants such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, fuel additives, solvents, taste and odor compounds, cyanotoxins.

Book A New Generation Material Graphene  Applications in Water Technology

Download or read book A New Generation Material Graphene Applications in Water Technology written by Mu. Naushad and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-20 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a unique collection of up-to-date applications of graphene for water science. Because water is an invaluable resource and the intelligent use and maintenance of water supplies is one of the most important and crucial challenges that stand before mankind, new technologies are constantly being sought to lower the cost and footprint of processes that make use of water resources as potable water as well as water for agriculture and industry, which are always in desperate demand. Much research is focused on graphene for different water treatment uses. Graphene, whose discovery won the 2010 Nobel Prize in physics, has been a shining star in the material science in the past few years. Owing to its interesting electrical, optical, mechanical and chemical properties, graphene has found potential applications in a wide range of areas, including water purification technology. A new type of graphene-based filter could be the key to managing the global water crisis. According to the World Economic Forum's Global Risks Report, lack of access to safe, clean water is the biggest risk to society over the coming decade. Yet some of these risks could be mitigated by the development of this filter, which is so strong and stable that it can be used for extended periods in the harshest corrosive environments, and with less maintenance than other filters on the market. The graphene-based filter could be used to filter chemicals, viruses, or bacteria from a range of liquids. It could be used to purify water, dairy products or wine, or in the production of pharmaceuticals. This book provides practical information to all those who are involved in this field.

Download or read book Seawater Aquariums written by Stephen Spotte and published by . This book was released on 1979-09-07 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquariology occupies a position that is peripheral to the main body of science. More specialized disciplines - seaiology - provide the foundation for what is known about how how aquatic animals and plants live in captive environements. The gulf seperating specialists from aquarists has never been adequately spanned until now. For the first time, material from these specialized fields has been assimilated collated, and made available to aquarists. SEAWATER AQUARIUMS is the most comprehensive books of its kind ever written. Drawing on his own experiences in the public aquarium profession, Spotte deals with the maintenance of aquatic animals and plants in closed systems (aquariums in which the water s filtered and otherwise treated, and then reused). Aquatic organisms alter the water in which they live, and their well-being is in turn affected by the extent and nature if the changes. Thus, the book's primary theme is the control of water quality factors that affect the physiological processes of captive seawater organisms. Among the topics discussed in detail are: temperature control; lighting; aeration; buffering; bacteriological filtration; the workings of ultraviolet sterilizers and ozonators; physical adsorption methods; techniques for processing large volumes of influent seawater; and the origins and physiological effects of stress. The subject of the last chapter is the laboratory analysis of aquarium seawater. Both practical and theoretical aspects are integrated throughout the text, resulting in a unique blend of the latest theoretical information with practical techniques for using it. The accompanying bibliography is the most complete compendium of aquarium literature assembled to date. Researchers in freshwater, estuarine, and marine science; design engineers of public aquariums, hatcheries, aquaculture installations, and marine laboratories; oceanographic technicians; and public aquarium curators will all appreciate the usefulness of this unqie volume on seawater aquarium technology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) rely on the efficient generation of reactive radical species and are increasingly attractive options for water remediation from a wide variety of organic micropollutants of human health and/or environmental concern. Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water Treatment covers the key advanced oxidation processes developed for chemical contaminant destruction in polluted water sources, some of which have been implemented successfully at water treatment plants around the world. The book is structured in two sections; the first part is dedicated to the most relevant AOPs, whereas the topics covered in the second section include the photochemistry of chemical contaminants in the aquatic environment, advanced water treatment for water reuse, implementation of advanced treatment processes for drinking water production at a state-of-the art water treatment plant in Europe, advanced treatment of municipal and industrial wastewater, and green technologies for water remediation. The advanced oxidation processes discussed in the book cover the following aspects: - Process principles including the most recent scientific findings and interpretation. - Classes of compounds suitable to AOP treatment and examples of reaction mechanisms. - Chemical and photochemical degradation kinetics and modelling. - Water quality impact on process performance and practical considerations on process parameter selection criteria. - Process limitations and byproduct formation and strategies to mitigate any potential adverse effects on the treated water quality. - AOP equipment design and economics considerations. - Research studies and outcomes. - Case studies relevant to process implementation to water treatment. - Commercial applications. - Future research needs.
