Objective
To establish the optimal combinations of chemical and biological oxidation required to degrade compounds which are representative of various classes of recalcitrant molecules and to arrive at optimal integrated chemical-biological treatment schemes based on this knowledge.
The project will consist of three phases:
- development of analytical techniques suitable for quantification of selected compounds and their intermediates. Construction and commissioning of the various reactors (wetox, ozone, biological)
- elucidacion of oxidation routes of selected compounds under wetox and ozone; biological oxidation of respective intermediates occurring during these processes, determination of process dynamics and robustness of combined chemical-biological system
- integration of chemical and biological techniques. Use of integrated lab-scale plants to treat first synthetically concocted and then actual industrially produced materials.
