Abstract
In this work the kinetics of Wet Oxidation reactions are taken under investigation. Two different types of wastewater were chosen, pulp and paper mill wastewater and model solutions containing 4-chlorophenol. Concerning Wet Oxidation of pulp and paper mill wastewater, two kinetic models were tested, the “Generalized Kinetic Model for Wet Oxidation of Organic Compounds” from Li, and the “Lumped Kinetic Model for Wastewater Organic Burden Biodegradability Prediction” proposed by Verenich and Kallas. The first model was found to be suitable to predict the COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) removal throughout the reaction when working at the lowest temperatures i.e., 433-443 K. On the other hand, the kinetic model of Verenich and Kallas was able to predict the biodegradability of the wastewater throughout the reaction in all ranges of temperatures studied (433-473 K). Regarding the kinetics of Wet Oxidation reactions of solutions containing 4-chlorophenol, a model was suggested taking into account the existence of an induction period previous to the oxidation in which the hydroxyl radicals are generated. This model showed good performance when predicting the 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) concentration during the reaction.
