Data for persulfate activation by UV light to degrade theophylline in a water effluent

摘要

The aim of this study was to degrade theophylline (TP) drug in a pharmaceutical effluent solution utilizing persulfate (PS). A simulated and a real effluent solution were used, with different conditions tested to optimize the degradation process. HPLC analyses and a modified-HPLC method were used to track concentrations of TP and PS respectively in the treatment process. Experiments were done in triplicates and treated data is presented as graphs. A detailed analyses of this study can be found in the article “Degradation of theophylline in a UV254/PS system: matrix effect and application to a factory effluent” [1] published in Chemical Engineering Journal.
