  • Catalytic wet-air oxidation as an efficient treatment technique for removal of organic pollutants and detoxification of wastewaters [Elektronski vir]
    Bistan, Mirjana ...
    The ubiquitous presence of endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) in environment is mainly the consequence of their incomplete removal in biological wastewater treatment plants. One of the promising ... options for EDCs removal is catalytic wet-air oxidation (CWAO), where pollutants are oxidized by activated O2 species in the presence of a solid catalyst. 17B-estradiol (E2) and bisphenol A (BPA) were used in CWAO experiments conducted in a trickle-bed reactor up to 230° C over TiO2 and Ru/TiO2 solids. In the given range of operating conditions, E2 and BPA undergo noncatalytic and catalytic oxidation routes. The employed Ru(3.0 wt. %)/TiO2 catalyst enabled complete and long lasting efficiency of E2 and BPA degradation as well as removal of toxicity and estrogenicity from the feed solution. No deactivation occurred and no carbonaceous deposits were accumulated on the catalyst surface.
