Scale-up of photoreactor with TiO thin layer for wastewater treatment.

This study is devoted to the scale-up potential of TiO/UV photocatalyst for real wastewater treatment including its durability tests. The activity of the prepared TiO layers was first tested in a laboratory reactor on key representative pollutants diclofenac, chloramphenicol and triclosan. A special pilot plant reactor of a two-tube system with 21 stainless steel annulets covered by TiO thin layers and the inner volume of 3.

Toxicity Assessment and Treatment Options of Diclofenac and Triclosan Dissolved in Water.

The presence of pharmaceutical and personal care products in water is increasing tremendously nowadays. Typical representatives are diclofenac (DCF) and triclosan (TCS). Acute toxicity of these substances was experimentally assessed using the freshwater algae (living, immobilized).
