This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the increasing global usage of water and the continuous addition of contaminants to water sources, new challenges have arisen that are associated with the abatement of organic pollutants, particularly those that are refractory to conventional water and wastewater treatment technologies. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) present a competitive alternative to promote the oxidation of organic contaminants by strong oxidative radicals generated from oxygen, ozone, wet peroxide, and UV radiation. The use of catalysts not only improves efficiency but may present remarkable cost advantages for practical applications of AOPs in the abatement of several pollutants. In this Special Issue of Catalysts, we invite authors to submit original research papers focused on the synthesis and characterization of novel heterogeneous catalysts and their uses in advanced oxidation processes for the removal of organic pollutants from aqueous solutions.

Book excerpt: Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are the technologies that generally use the hydroxyl radicals, the ultimate oxidant for the remediation of organic contaminants in wastewater. These are highly effective novel methods speeding up the oxidation process. AOP can combine with ozone (O3), catalyst, or ultraviolet (UV) irradiation to offer a powerful treatment of wastewater. Future research should be focused on enhancing the properties of heterogeneous catalysts in AOPs. This chapter reports general review of different AOPs utilized for the removal of various phenolic compounds and textile dyes in wastewater. The chapter also aimed at an investigation of efficiency for different photochemical AOPs. The authors have carried out the experimental runs at a laboratory scale for the removal of malachite green oxalate (MGO) dye with photochemical AOPs. The influence of ferrous ions and oxidant dosage on percentage decolorization of MGO in wastewater has been reported. The discussion extends to the utilization of different modified photocatalysts for the photocatalysis process. The future challenges, such as the adoption of strategies for the integration of processes and the decrement in operational cost of AOPs, are discussed. The discussion covers the utilization of different heterogeneous catalysts, the reduction of input demands of chemicals and energy for the processes.

Book excerpt: Photocatalysis has recently emerged as an advanced oxidation process. The present dissertation aims at the practical increase of the energy efficiency of photocatalysis using fundamental tools. A comprehensive kinetic model was developed to describe primary photocatalytic processes taking place on the surface of semiconductors. The steady-state assumption for all the intermediate species in the system allowed to find the lumped kinetic parameters and elucidate the relative extent of electron-hole and recombination reactions. It is important to utilize single-stage oxidation reactions to test this kinetci model and obtain kinetic parameters. This simple method also allowed to determine experimentally the rates of radical generation as well as the rate of electron-hole recombination for a number of commercial titania photocatalysts. When interfaced with the continuous flow reactor design, the model allowed to predict the optimal radiation profiles in photoreactors, which would significantly increase the reactor output. Such profiles are represented by a combination of exponential functions, and they prescribe more radiation at the beginning of the reactor in comparison with that at the end. Furthermore, it was found that when a continuous-flow reactor with recycle, the use of the optimal profile can produce a major enhancement of the output in comparison with the uniformly illuminated photoreactor. The expansion of the working range of photocatalysts to enable them to utilize visible light was also undertaken. To achieve this, a combination of doping and sensitization properties was needed. It was found that titania-loaded transition metal MCM-41 materials can allow for such combination. The heterojunction with the transition metal substituted MCM-41 works as a "sensitizer" for the titania deposit, while the extraframework transtion metal inclusion can diffuse inside the titania loading and work as a dopant. The latter allows to effectively utilize visible light to perform photocatalytic reactions. Similar effect of sensitization was found for Cd-MCM-41, which enhances the photoactivity of titania in ultraviolet light. Conclusively, it has been shown that the use of optimal reactor design as well as novel catalysts containing active supports can significantly increase the reaction rates and exclude the dependence of the process on the artificial sources of energy.
