Hetero-catalytic hydrothermal oxidation of simulated pulping effluent: Effect of operating parameters and catalyst stability.
Chemosphere 2018 January
In the present study, activated carbon (AC) supported bi-metallic catalyst (3.3Cu/2.2Ce/4.4AC) was subjected to catalytic wet oxidation (CWO) of simulated pulping effluent at moderate operating conditions (temperatures = 120-190 °C and oxygen partial pressures = 0.5-1.2 MPa). The oxidation reaction was performed in a high pressure reactor (capacity = 0.7 l) with catalyst concentration of 1-5 g/l for 3 h duration. During CWO at 190 °C temperature and 0.9 MPa oxygen pressure, the chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOC), lignin and color removals from the wastewater were 79%, 77%, 88% and 89%, respectively, while the wastewater biodegradability was enhanced to 0.52 from an initial value of 0.16. TOC mass balance suggested that nearly 86-97% of the degraded TOC was mineralized whereas copper and cerium leaching from the catalyst were in the range of 1-15% and 0.7-1% with respect to their initial amounts. Metal leaching was reduced with increase in the reaction temperature. Global kinetic rate model was also developed using TOC degradation data and the activation energies of two step (rapid followed by slower TOC removal) CWO reaction were determined as 34.2 kJ/mol and 28.5 kJ/mol, respectively.
