Three oxidation processes for amoxicillin wastewater pretreatment such as Electro-Fe(3+)(EDTA)/H2O2 (EDTA: ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), Fe(3+)(EDTA)/H2O2 and Electro-Fe(3+)/H2O2 were simultaneously discussed at pH of 7.0 (+/-0.1). It was found that the above processes could achieve 78%, 64%, 33% chemical oxygen demand (COD(cr)) removal, and 86%, 70%, 47% amoxicillin degradation respectively. Moreover, the results of biodegradability (biological oxygen demand (BOD(5))/COD(cr) ratio) showed that the Electro-Fe(3+)(EDTA)/H2O2 process was a promising way to pretreat antibiotic wastewater due to the biodegradability of the effluent improved to 0.48 compared with the cases of Fe(3+)(EDTA)/H2O2 (0.40) and Electro-Fe(3+)/H2O2 process (0.12). Therefore, it was reasonable to note that EDTA and electricity showed synergetic effect on the oxidation process. Additionally, infrared spectra (IR) were applied to concisely propose a potential degradation way of amoxicillin. The characteristic changes of H2O2 and EDTA in the oxidation process were also investigated in detail.
在pH值为7.0(±0.1)的条件下,同时探讨了三种用于阿莫西林废水预处理的氧化工艺,即电-Fe(3+)(乙二胺四乙酸)/H2O2(乙二胺四乙酸:ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid)、Fe(3+)(乙二胺四乙酸)/H2O2和电-Fe(3+)/H2O2。结果发现,上述工艺分别可实现78%、64%、33%的化学需氧量(COD(cr))去除率,以及86%、70%、47%的阿莫西林降解率。此外,生物降解性(生化需氧量(BOD(5))/COD(cr)比值)结果表明,电-Fe(3+)(乙二胺四乙酸)/H2O2工艺是预处理抗生素废水的一种有前景的方法,因为与Fe(3+)(乙二胺四乙酸)/H2O2工艺(0.40)和电-Fe(3+)/H2O2工艺(0.12)相比,其出水的生物降解性提高到了0.48。因此,有理由认为乙二胺四乙酸和电在氧化过程中表现出协同效应。此外,还应用红外光谱(IR)简要提出了阿莫西林的一种潜在降解途径。同时,还详细研究了氧化过程中H2O2和乙二胺四乙酸的特征变化。
