Pilot unit for advanced oxidation (AOP)

13 August 2015

To treat industrial and agricultural wastewater, CÉPROCQ uses advanced oxidation technologies (ozone, hydrogen peroxide, ultraviolet). Creating highly oxidizing entities (such as hydroxyl radicals) allows destruction of a wide range of nonbiodegradable organic compounds. An in-house fabricated pilot unit facilitates applying these three oxidants separately or in combinations for treatment of wastewater. The unit could be used for treatment of 10 to 30 litres wastewater.
