The influence of phosphates on the decomposition of ozone in water: Chain process inhibition

P. A. Morozov, Б. Г. Ершов

Open publisher page 42 citations

Abstract

The addition of phosphates was found to decrease the rate of the decomposition of ozone in water; they accepted hydroxyl radicals and thereby inhibited chain ozone decomposition. The presence of phosphates decreased the order of the reaction from second for pure water to one-and-a-half. The rate constants for ozone decomposition in the presence of various phosphate concentrations increased as pH grew from 4 to 9.
