Demonstration of the HiPOx Advanced Oxidation Technology for the Treatment of MTBE-Contaminated Groundwater

摘要

The HiPOx technology is an advanced oxidation process that incorporates high-precision delivery of ozone and hydrogen peroxide to chemically destroy organic contaminants with the promise of minimizing bromate formation. A MTBE-contaminated groundwater from the Ventura County Naval Base in Port Hueneme, CA was used to evaluate this technology. Due to extremely high concentrations of bromide in the feed water (1.3 mg/L) and the desire to limit bromate formation, an experimental system was operated with 630 ozone injector ports in series.
