Impact of natural organic matter on bromate removal in the sulfite/UV-L advanced reduction process
Advanced reduction processes (ARPs) are treatment processes that involve combining reducing reagents and activating tools to produce highly reactive reducing free radicals. The process has proven effective for treating oxidized contaminants, and the effects of process variables on the degradation kinetics of various target contaminants have been investigated in our previous studies. In ...

Demonstration and evaluation of germicidal UV-LEDs for point-of-use water disinfection
Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is a common disinfection option for water treatment in the developed world. There are a few systems installed in developing countries for point-of-use treatment, but the low-pressure mercury lamps currently used as the UV irradiation source have a number of sustainability issues including a fragile envelope, a lifetime of approximately one year, and they contain ...

Effects of operation conditions on removal rate constant and quantum yield of gaseous chlorobenzene degradation in a photochemical reactor
A photochemical reactor with a low-pressure mercury ultraviolet (UV) lamp was established to treat waste gas containing chlorobenzene. Operation conditions such as light intensity, gas humidity, and inlet chlorobenzene concentration were varied. Two significant parameters, the removal rate constant and the quantum yield (relating to removal kinetic and light energy utilization), were investigated ...

Efficacy of vacuum ultraviolet photolysis for bromate and chlorate removal
We introduce vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photolysis at 172 nm as a more efficient process for bromate and chlorate removal than conventional ultraviolet (UV) photolysis at 254 nm. We discuss the effects of pH and coexisting salts on VUV photolysis. In experiments at various pH levels, the VUV photolysis performance decreased in the alkaline region for pH above 7. Furthermore, nitrate and inorganic ...

Non-Ionising Radiation
Pressures on the environment may occur through chemical, physical and biological agents. The subject of this study is physical agents, where physical fields are examined. Physical fields are part of the natural environment. Depending upon their properties and the surrounding conditions, physical fields are transmitted through the spaces in which we live, potentially affecting human health and ...
