ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are treatments which rely on the accelerated generation of hydroxyl radicals (OH), one of the most powerful oxidizing agents in nature. OH radicals react and destroy any organic and inorganic contaminants in water and wastewater. The most popular AOPs are based on the combination of ozone or UV light with different chemicals, such as UV/H2O2, ozone/H2O2 and photoFenton (UV/H2O2/Fe). Another high-potential process is photocatalysis, incorporating semiconductor catalyst with UV or solar light. Emerging AOPs include hydraulic and ultrasound cavitation, arc plasma and other OH-generating processes. AOPs are considered the only viable treatment methods for effluents containing refractory, toxic, and non-biodegradable materials, and their major advantages are complete mineralization of organics (without any sludge or waste stream) and easy combination with biological processes
