羟基氧化铁催化臭氧氧化对滤后水THMs生成势的控制作用

实验比较了滤后水经过单独臭氧氧化和羟基氧化铁催化臭氧氧化后的三卤甲烷生成势(THMFP).考察了不同的溴离子含量、pH值、碱度、O₃/TOC比例、氧化反应时间、催化剂投量时,2种氧化条件下滤后水THMFP的变化规律.发现羟基氧化铁催化氧化后,滤后水的THMFP比单独臭氧氧化后的降低了30.5%.溴离子浓度较高时THMs以溴代产物为主,羟基氧化铁催化氧化后溴代的THMFP是单独臭氧氧化后的45%～65.5%.在滤后水pH值为6.33～9.43、O3/TOC比值为0.65～2.05、氧化时间为2～20min的条件下,羟基氧化铁催化氧化都表现出明显降低THMFP的优势.碱度升高使2种氧化后的THMFP都降低,且使其差值减小.催化剂存在降低THMFP的最佳投量.催化氧化降低滤后水THMFP的原因是比单独臭氧氧化提高了对TOC的去除率,催化产生的羟基自由基进一步氧化降低了水中有机物卤代活性位的数量.

Control of THMs Formation Potential of Filtered Surface Water with Catalytic Ozonation by Ferric Hydroxide

Catalytic ozonation of a filtered surface water with ferric hydroxide (FeOOH) was compared with ozonation alone for trihalomathane formation potential (THMFP). Factors studied included bromide, pH, alkalinity, ratio of O3/TOC, reaction time, and dosage of FeOOH. THMFP of the water after catalytic ozonation was 30.5% lower than that after ozonation. High bromide concentration resulted in the predominance of brominated THMFP, at which condition the brominated THMFP after catalytic ozonation was 45%-65.5% of that after ozonation. The catalytic ozonation showed a significant advantage over ozonation in controlling THMFP of the water at the conditions applied in this experiment, i.e., at pH of 6.33-9.43, O3/TOC of 0.65-2.05, and reaction time of 2-20 min. High concentration of alkalinity decreased THMFP of the water after ozonation and catalytic ozonation. It also weakened the advantage of catalytic ozonation. There existed an optimal dosage of FeOOH in respect of controlling THMFP. The lower THMFP of the water after catalytic ozonation is caused by its higher TOC removal than ozonation, and the possible enhanced oxidation of some of the THM precursors by hydroxyl radicals generated in this process.
