Abstract
Ozonation of clofibric acid (CA) in aqueous solution was carried out under continuous operation in a cascade bubble column. The influence of operation parameters including initial CA concentration, gas flow rate, liquid flow rate and pH on the removal of CA and TOC was investigated. The results indicated that ozonation could be used to effectively remove CA from water. Increasing the initial CA concentration resulted in a decrease of the CA and TOC removal efficiency. A comparison of CA removal efficiency and ozone utilization between cascade and conventional bubble column indicated that cascade bubble column was an effective way for increasing the solubility ozone in the reactor.
