Abstract

The destruction of synthetic acetic acid wastewater was carried out using UV, O3, H2O2, Fe2+ oxidants in various combinations by the advanced oxidation processes. UV/H2O2, UV/H2O2/Fe2+, O3, O3/H2O2, UV/O3/H2O2, UV/O3/H2O2/Fe2+ processes were tested. UV/H2O2/Fe2+, O3/H2O2, UV/O3/H2O2, UV/O3/H2O2/Fe2+ processes shows the most effective destruction efficiency at low pH (3.5) condition of wastewater, but UV/H2O2 and O3 processes were observed less than 20%. Destruction efficiency was gradually increased with the reaction time in the O3/H2O2 and UV/O3/H2O2 processes, in case of the UV/H2O2/Fe2+ and UV/O3/H2O2/Fe2+ processes shows rapid increasing of destruction efficiency within 90 min, then slightly decreasing with time. The destruction efficiencies of UV/H2O2/Fe2+, O3/H2O2, UV/O3/H2O2 and UV/O3/H2O2/Fe2+ processes were observed 55, 66, 66 and 64%, respectively.
