Abstract: | Degradation of organic contaminants in water by high-voltage pulse discharges was investigated. The effects of gas flow rate and liquid conductivity on the degradation of 4-chlorophenol were studied. With the increase of time, the liquid conductivity increases, which have an important effect on discharge. Meanwhile, with the increase of time, the concentration of H2O2 increases. Addition of 200 mg/L H2O2, the conversion of 4-chlorophenol was greatly enhanced. This may be due to the synergistic effect of high-voltage pulsed discharge and H2O2. Also, it was found that the influence of quantity of TiO2or CuO on degradation of acetophenone is not apparent, maybe the presence of metal oxides hinders the formation of plasma channel due to increase of collusions between metal oxides and oxygen. |
