A model study of ozone-sparged vessels for the removal of organics from water

Ozone-sparged vessels for the oxidation of a model organic compound, methanol, was studied. The parameters under study included superficial gas velocity, the gas phase ozone concentration, the rate of ozonation of methanol and its oxidative products, the residence time, etc. The scale-up method base...

Description
Summary:Ozone-sparged vessels for the oxidation of a model organic compound, methanol, was studied. The parameters under study included superficial gas velocity, the gas phase ozone concentration, the rate of ozonation of methanol and its oxidative products, the residence time, etc. The scale-up method based on the mathematical model developed in this study accurately predicts the superficial gas velocity and the gas phase ozone concentration required for two larger geometrically similar vessels to achieve the same level of total organic carbon removal obtained in a small vessel.
