Advanced Oxidation Processes
Project Summary: This section gathers projects involving the degradation of organic pollutants through processes such as ozonation, UV/H2O2, electron beam irradiation, and Fenton's reagent. It includes kinetic modeling, materials evaluation, and experimental design approaches.
Key Contributions:
- Developed and modeled UV/H2O2 degradation of bisphenol A using experimental design and kinetic approaches
- Evaluated photocatalysts (TiO2) under solar simulation for atrazine degradation
- Applied ozonation in batch mode to treat textile wastewater and radioactive oil sludge
- Studied the degradation of ion exchange resins and organic sludges using Fenton and e-beam techniques
