Analysis of the Degradation and Mineralization of Phenol Via Advanced Oxidative Process for Wastewater Reuse in the oil industry.
Keywords:
effluent, phenol, photo-FentonAbstract
Industrial activities, mining and agriculture are important emitters of toxic pollutants, the oil industry being a major generator of toxic effluents. Phenol is one of the compounds found in these effluents, is dangerous and lethal in minute concentrations. Traditional methods of water treatment can not mineralized it, and studied techniques such as advanced oxidation processes. This work used photo-Fenton process using photochemical reactor bench for treating an aqueous solution of phenol 100mg.L-1. The degradation of the compound and the mineralization were analyzed via liquid chromatography High Efficiency Total Organic Carbon (TOC). Obtained was a degradation of 100% conversion of the phenol and 92% of the TOC after 2 hours of reaction.
