Kinetic and Mass Transfer of Peroxone Oxidation of Toluene Using Ultra Sonic Spray: Ab Initio Quantum Calculations and Numerical Modeling
… technique to treat waste gas or wastewater. Degradation of ozone in water is a key step in the pollutant degradation mechanism, particularly in peroxone oxidation. However, the degradation of ozone in water is not well understood. In the research documented here, peroxone treatment is studied …

Metal oxide heterostructured films with controlled architecture for enhanced photocatalytic properties
… powder materials have been widely reported for pollutant degradation/water treatment, but difficulties are prevailing in the re-usability of the material. Moreover, there is the need for finding a suitable heterostructured photo- catalyst that could provide better charge kinetics, an ultimate …

Modeling of a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma reactor for soil remediation
… the production of oxidized species used for pollutant degradation and, eventually, for soil remediation. This investigation covers the plasma phenomena that take place inside the plasma reactor, and extends to the underlying transport and reaction phenomena, over a wide range of …

Degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water: Alternative treatments to conventional processes.
… (BaP), which is a carcinogenic and mutagenic pollutant. Therefore, their presence in the environment and, specifically in aquatic resources must be monitored. For this purpose, the chromatographic behavior of AN and BaP was studied, and three models were found describing the identification of …
