Study on the mineralization of TBP/n-dodecane using O3/H2O2 advanced oxidation process
摘要
Spent tributyl phosphate (TBP) dissolved in n-dodecane is a kind of radioactive organic waste that requires effective treatment in nuclear fuel reprocessing. This study optimized and evaluated the mineralization of TBP/n-dodecane using O3/H2O2 advanced oxidation process. Under optimal conditions (pH 7.0, H2O2 dosage of 86.3 mL, O3 concentration of 159.7 mg L−1, and reaction time of 12 h), a mineralization efficiency of 96.6% was achieved, with a residual TOC of 759.0 mg L−1. The results show that the reaction process conforms to a pseudo-first-order kinetics.
