Comparison of Efficiency of the Effect of the Corrona Discharge and Vacuum UV-Radiation in Destruction of Anionic Surfactants

详细

The paper has investigated destruction of anionic surfactants—sodium dodecylsulfate and dodecylsulfonate in a water medium under the impact of the corona discharge and vacuum ultraviolet radiation (185 nm). We established kinetic characteristics of destruction of the processes being studied. Experimentally it was proved that high values of the concentration of total organic carbon being observed at treatment by plasma and vacuum UV-radiation may be stipulated by determined by recombination of carbonate radicals being formed into organic peroxides or oxalate–anions.
