Abstract
The study highlights effectiveness of hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) in the degradation of effluents polluted by Brilliant Cresyl Blue (BCB) dye. Optimal process parameters were cavitation number 0.27, inlet pressure 1.70 bar, temperature 20 °C and pH 7. The efficiency of HC was investigated in combination with other advanced oxidation processes, including the addition of external oxidants (hydrogen peroxide, ozone, and sodium persulfate) and photooxidation. A detailed investigation of reactive radical species present in the system is also presented. Hybrid processes based on HC revealed the highest synergism. Finally, ultrafast degradation of target oxazine dye (decolorization efficiency of 100%) within the short treatment time of 1 min was developed. The most effective process was a combination of hydrodynamic cavitation and ozonation with a synergistic coefficient of 1.84 and electrical energy per order EEO of 0.03 kWh m−3 order−1. The presented solution is ready to be implemented as technology for industrial practice.
