摘要

The effect of the nature of the membrane surface, the presence of hydroxyl radical scavengers, and temperature, on bromate formation in a hybrid ozonation membrane filtration reactor was studied. The presence of tertiary butyl alcohol, a hydroxyl radical scavenger, suppressed the indirect bromate formation pathway and less bromate was formed. Bromate formation was less with the Mn oxide coated membrane than when using the uncoated TiO₂ membrane. As the temperature was increased, bromate formation was enhanced, which was attributed to faster reaction rates. An empirical model was developed to predict bromate formation in a hybrid ozone-ceramic membrane filtration system. The model takes into account the effects of important experimental variables including initial bromide concentration, inlet ozone injection mass rate, pH, temperature, and reaction time. The coefficients in the model were determined using multiple linear regression with logarithmic transformations. The model indicated that bromate formation was favored at high bromide concentration, ozone dose, pH, and temperature. Good correlation was achieved between the model predictions and the experimental data.
