Cavitation assisted hybrid advanced oxidation processes for degradation of recalcitrant pollutants

Abstract

This thesis has demonstrated the efficacy of the cavitation both ultrasonic and hydrodynamic based hybrid advanced oxidation processes for enhanced degradation of organic pollutants We have dealt with the pollutants from pharmaceuticals and pesticide industries Various iron oxides were synthesized and characterized for Fenton like degradation reaction system The process parameters and loading of additives were optimized to achieve the maximum degradation of pollutants A kinetic model was p...
