A Brief Insight into Advanced Oxidation Processes for Wastewater Treatment: A Keen and Farsighted Short Overview

Journal Title: Universal Journal of Environmental Research and Technology - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 3

Abstract

Environmental engineering is undergoing remarkable and awesome challenges. The vision and purpose in writing this review is challenging and groundbreaking. Wastewater and effluent treatment has undergone innovative changes over the years. Traditional wastewater treatment has yielded to modern and path-breaking procedures which are more efficient and effective. The world of difficulties and unknown has opened new avenues and paths to highly feasible effluent treatment procedures. So the vigorous importance of advanced oxidation procedures. Our review will delineate the increasing importance of various advanced oxidation processes including ozonation of textile wastewater. It will open up wide avenues of visionary importance’s. Advanced oxidation processes (AOP’s) , which involve and includes the in-situ generation of highly potent chemical oxidants such as the hydroxyl radical , have emerged as an important avenue of technologies to accelerate the non-selective oxidation and thus the destruction of a wide range of non-degradable organic contaminants in wastewater which cannot be eliminated biologically. Our review will delineate the difficulties and intricacies of advanced oxidation processes of wastewater particularly textile industry wastewater. Actually, recently, an increasing application of various AOP’s for textile wastewater has been observed in contrast to traditional treatment methods. So our urge to investigate this domain of knowledge. A holistic view of the advanced oxidation processes is deliberated and delivered with scientific rigour.
