  2. Advanced oxidation process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_oxidation_process

    Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), in a broad sense, are a set of chemical treatment procedures designed to remove organic (and sometimes inorganic) materials in water and wastewater by oxidation through reactions with hydroxyl radicals (·OH). [1] In real-world applications of wastewater treatment, however, this term usually refers more ...

  3. Water treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_treatment

    Wastewater treatment is a process which removes and eliminates contaminants from wastewater. It thus converts it into an effluent that can be returned to the water cycle. Once back in the water cycle, the effluent creates an acceptable impact on the environment. It is also possible to reuse it.

  4. In situ chemical oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_situ_chemical_oxidation

    The processes involved with ozonation (treating water with ozone) only leave behind O 2. Ozone can also react with many of the important environmental contaminants. In addition, because ozone is a gas, adding ozone to the bottom of the contaminant pool forces the ozone to rise up through the contaminants and react.

  5. Water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purification

    Water purification is the process of removing undesirable chemicals, biological contaminants, suspended solids, and gases from water. The goal is to produce water that is fit for specific purposes. Most water is purified and disinfected for human consumption (drinking water), but water purification may also be carried out for a variety of other ...

  6. Ozonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozonia

    Website. www.ozonia.com [1] Ozonia is a multinational water treatment equipment manufacturer headquartered in Zürich, Switzerland. It operates under the company, Degrémont[2], which is a subsidiary of Suez Environnement[3], a French-based utility company which operates largely in the water treatment and waste management sectors.

  7. Portable water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_water_purification

    Portable water purification devices are self-contained, easily transported units used to purify water from untreated sources (such as rivers, lakes, and wells) for drinking purposes. Their main function is to eliminate pathogens, and often also of suspended solids and some unpalatable or toxic compounds. These units provide an autonomous supply ...

  8. Ozone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone

    Infobox references. Ozone (/ ˈoʊzoʊn /) (or trioxygen) is an inorganic molecule with the chemical formula O. 3. It is a pale blue gas with a distinctively pungent smell. It is an allotrope of oxygen that is much less stable than the diatomic allotrope O. 2, breaking down in the lower atmosphere to O.

  9. Industrial water treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_water_treatment

    Overview. Water treatment is used to optimize most water-based industrial processes, such as heating, cooling, processing, cleaning, and rinsing so that operating costs and risks are reduced. Poor water treatment lets water interact with the surfaces of pipes and vessels which contain it. Steam boilers can scale up or corrode, and these ...
