Treatability of Phenol by Supercritical Water Oxidation

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study focused on the treatment of phenol wastewater by supercritical water oxidation(SCWO). Tests were conducted by using a continuous-flow reactor system. Based on COD, organic destruction efficiencies of phenol wastewater were obtained at supercritical water conditions. Temperatures and pressures, respectively, ranged from 400-500°C,and 25-40Mpa. The reaction times varied from 30 to 190 seconds, and hydrogen peroxide was used as oxidant. Under SCWO conditions, destruction efficiencies greater than 99% were achieved.
