Advanced Oxidation Technology

Advanced Oxidation Technology
Advanced oxidation technology, also known as deep oxidation technology, is based on the use of electricity, light irradiation, catalysts, and sometimes combined with oxidants to produce highly reactive free radicals (such as HO•) in the reaction, followed by free radicals and organic Addition, substitution, electron transfer, and breaking of bonds between compounds, oxidative degradation of macromolecular refractory organic compounds in water into low-toxic or non-toxic small molecules, and even direct degradation to CO2 and H2O Chemical oxidation techniques are commonly used in pretreatment of biological treatments. Generally, under the action of a catalyst, a chemical oxidant is used to treat the organic wastewater to improve its biodegradability, or directly oxidize and degrade the organic matter in the wastewater to stabilize it.
