Abstract

The removal of 1,4-dioxane and the biodegradability enhancement of dioxane contaminated water was investigated using $O_3-H_2O_2$ based advanced oxidation process. Experiments were conducted using a bubble column reactor under different dioxane and peroxide concentrations as well as PH. The $O_3-H_2O_2$ process effectively converted dioxane to more biodegradable intermediates and increased the biodegradability and average oxidation state of dioxane in the solution.
