Compromise between bromate ion formation and pesticides degradation and/or manganese removal
1997
Abstract Ozonation is a widely used technology within the water industry. Bromate ion formed by oxidation of water containing bromide ion was studied with the Gas Ozone Test and Pilot Scale Ozonation. Bromate ion formation was investigated along with the removal of triazines and/or manganese. Under identical conditions of ozonation, BrO3 − formation is specific for each water and depends on parameters such as Total Organic Carbon, UV absorbance at 254 nm, applied ozone and ozone residual. Pesticides degradation by ozonation alone cannot be achieved without the formation of BrO3 − at a high concentration. Hydrogen peroxide, at a constant ozone dose, reduces the BrO3 − formation. However, even with the use of hydrogen peroxide, the concentration of BrO3 − can remain in excess of the provisional Maximum Contaminant Level (10 μg/L). For certain types of water, pesticide degradation is difficult to achieve if the MCL for BrO3 − has to be met. Manganese oxidation by ozone appears to be achieved without high bro...
