Photocatalytic destruction of anionic SAS by ozone and oxygen

The article has investigated photocatalytic destruction of anionic SAS—sodium alkylbenzene sulfate (ABS) in the aqueous medium by ozone on TiO2 Degussa P-25 at UV radiation by a DB-15 low-pressure mercury-quartz lamp. The paper has determined the parameters of photocatalytic ozonization securing complete ABS destruction (100% in terms of organic carbon). We have assessed advantages of photocatalytic ozonization of ABS solutions compared with photocatalytic oxidation by oxygen and O3/UV treatment.
