Abstract
Ozone effectively lowers the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total organic carbon (TOC) content of effluents from waste-water treatment plants. It removes odors and color from water and destroys pathogenic organisms. Residual ozone decomposes rather rapidly; it has a half life in drinking water of about 20 minutes. Tertiary treatment with ozone has the potential of an automated, trouble-free operation with low maintenance. The objectives of this research work were to devise an efficient contacting process and to make a preliminary evaluation of its economics. (Author)
