Özet

In the present study, the treatability of aqueous DEP solution employing H2O2/UV-C oxidation and the changes in acute and/or chronic toxicity of untreated and H2O2/UV-C treated DEP solutions was investigated. For DEP removal and its ultimate oxidation (mineralization), an optimum initial H2O2 concentration of 40 mM was required. The HO. bimolecular reaction rate constant of DEP was found as 2.33 ± 0.27 × 108 M-1 s-1. Activated sludge inhibition experiments inferred that H2O2/UV-C treated DEP solutions were composed of a mixture of oxidation intermediates which exhibited higher degree of inhibition to heterotrophic biomass with respect to DEP. According to the results obtained in this work, the complete mineralization of DEP by H2O2/UV-C process would be a better option.

On the other hand, DEP has been designated as a hazardous, priority pollutant under the US Clean Water Act and has also been listed as a chemical of major concern by different agencies (US EPA, Canadian EPA, etc.) as well as the EU Commission (USEPA, 1981; Nordic Council of Ministers and Danish National Institute of Occupational Health, 1990). Hence, its complete elimination or at least partial destruction (detoxification) from water and wastewater has become a priority environmental task recently. Different treatment methods have been proposed for EDC removal including adsorption, catalytic oxidation, ozonation and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) such as power ultrasound, heterogeneous photocatalysis (TiO2/UV-A or visible light irradiation), Fenton, Photo-Fenton and H2O2/UV-C processes (Esplugas et al., 2007; Gultekin and Ince, 2007).
