Photocatalytic degradation of sulfamethoxazole using TiO2 in simulated seawater: evidence for direct formation of reactive halogen species and halogenated by-products

Combined sewer overflows (CSO), generated during the wet weather flow from the combination of the inflow and stormwater runoff in sewer system, result in an overflow of untreated wastewater from sewer system, which might ultimately contain different micropollutants (MPs). In this study, a coagulatio...

In this study, a coagulation-flocculation-sedimentation (CFS) pretreated CSO spiked with MPs was treated by catalytic ozonation using carbon, iron and peroxide based catalysts. The catalysts were characterized and their activity on MPs removal was studied at two different ozone (O3) doses (5 and 10 mg L‒1). The effect of the treatment on the spiked CSO effluent was also assessed from the acute toxicity of the effluent using Microtox®, Yeast and Macrophage cell-line toxicity assay tests.

The CFS treatment strongly reduced the turbidity (≥ 60%) but had marginal effect on the UV254, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and pH. Sludge Based Carbon (SBC) showed strong adsorption capacity (≥ 60% removal efficiency) for all MPs studied compared to other carbon and iron-based catalysts. Ozonation alone was effective for the degradation of easily oxidizable MPs (sulfamethoxazole, mecoprop, and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyl acetic acid), achieving more than 80% degradation efficiency at 10 mg L‒1 of ozone, but not effective for atrazine (≤ 60% degradation efficiency) at similar O3 dose. Catalytic ozonation (at 10 mg L‒1 O3 dose) improved the degradation of the MPs at low catalyst dosage but higher dosage strongly inhibited their degradation.
