Degradation of benzophenone in aqueous solution by Mn-Fe-K modified ceramic honeycomb-catalyzed ozonation.
Comparative studies of ozonation alone, ceramic honeycomb-catalyzed and Mn-Fe-K modified ceramic honeycomb catalyzed ozonation processes have been undertaken with benzophenone as the model organic pollutant. The experimental results showed that the presence of Mn-Fe-K modified ceramic honeycombs significantly increased the removal rate of benzophenone and TOC compared with that achieved by ozonation alone or ceramic honeycomb-catalyzed ozonation. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments verified that higher benzophenone removal rate was attribute to more hydroxyl radicals generated in the Mn-Fe-K modified ceramic honeycomb-catalyzed ozonation. Under the conditions of this experiment, the degradation rate of all the three ozonation processes are increasing with the amount of catalyst, temperature and value of pH increased in the solution. We also investigated the effects of different process of ozone addition, the optimum conditions for preparing catalyst and influence of the Mn-Fe-K modified ceramic honeycomb after multiple-repeated use.
