Abstract

This paper presents an overview of textile wastewater treatment by catalytic ozonation, highlighting the parameters of the process and accompanying mechanisms. Since more than 800,000 tons of dyes are produced annually and thousands of cubic meters of highly polluted textile wastewater have been emitted into the environment every day, this issue has become an environmental concern. Due to the high oxidative potential of ozone (2.08 V) and hydroxyl radical (2.80 V), the main reactive species in catalytic ozonation, the burdensome organic pollutants, including textile dyes, can be successfully decomposed. The paper shows the main groups of catalysts, emphasizing novel structural, nano-structured, and functionalized materials. The examples of catalytic ozonation in the industrial application for real textile wastewater were specially highlighted.
