Abstract
Since ammonia nitrogen is a pollutant causing eutrophication, it must be removed from wastewater to develop sustainable environment and society. Ozonation, which is an oxidation reaction with ozone, is an effective and efficient method for the removal of ammonia nitrogen in wastewater because the reaction can proceed at low temperature and atmospheric pressure. Although the researches in ozonation of ammonia nitrogen have been going on for the last five decades, the reaction mechanism has not yet been well understood and the papers focusing on the reaction mechanism are very few. In this short review paper, the progress in oxidation of ammonia nitrogen with ozone both in non-catalytic and catalytic reactions is summarized to provide a better understanding on the reaction mechanism for ozonation of ammonia nitrogen in water.
