Description :
Oil industry wastewater contains high concentration of organic biodegradable compound as well as a great amount of suspended solids. This water is difficult to treat by conventional biological processes and a great flow variation exists. Photocatalytic advanced oxidation is promising technology for water contains high amount of organic matter. In this study we firstly investigated the application of H2O2 as oxidant combined with light natural in order to reduce the organic matter in sample from oil industry effluents. In the present work advanced oxidation process (UV/H2O2/TiO2), system for the treatment of water contaminated with oil was investigation. The reaction influenced by the input concentration of hydrogen peroxide H2O2, the initial amount of pH, temperature and concentration of oil in wastewater.
Keyword: advanced oxidation processes; photocatalysts; oily wastewater.
