3.1OzoneChemistry
Ozoneexistsasagasatroomtemperature.Thegasiscolorlesswithapungentodorreadilydetectableatconcentrationsaslowas0.02to0.05ppm(byvolume),whichisbelowconcentrationsofhealthconcern.Ozonegasishighlycorrosiveandtoxic.
Ozoneisapowerfuloxidant,secondonlytothehydroxylfreeradical,amongchemicalstypicallyusedinwatertreatment.Therefore,itiscapableofoxidizingmanyorganicandinorganiccompoundsinwater.Thesereactionswithorganicandinorganiccompoundscauseanozonedemandinthewatertreated,whichshouldbesatisfiedduringwaterozonationpriortodevelopingameasurableresidual.
Ozoneissparinglysolubleinwater.At20oC,thesolubilityof100percentozoneisonly570mg/L(Kinman,1975).Whileozoneismoresolublethanoxygen,chlorineis12timesmoresolublethanozone.Ozoneconcentrationsusedinwatertreatmentaretypicallybelow14percent,whichlimitsthemasstransferdrivingforceofgaseousozoneintothewater.Consequently,typicalconcentrationsofozonefoundduringwatertreatmentrangefrom<
0.1to1mg/L,althoughhigherconcentrationscanbeattainedunderoptimumconditions.
Basicchemistryresearch(Hoigné

Glazeetal.,1987)hasshownthatozonedecomposesspontaneouslyduringwatertreatmentbyacomplexmechanismthatinvolvesthegenerationofhydroxylfreeradicals.Thehydroxylfreeradicalsareamongthemostreactiveoxidizingagentsinwater,withreactionratesontheorderof1010-1013M-1s-1,approachingthediffusioncontrolratesforsolutessuchasaromatichydrocarbons,unsaturatedcompounds,aliphaticalcohols,andformicacid(Hoigné
andBader,1976).Ontheotherhand,thehalf-lifeofhydroxylfreeradicalsisontheorderofmicroseconds,thereforeconcentrationsofhydroxylfreeradicalscanneverreachlevelsabove10–12M(GlazeandKang,1988).

Thetwooxidationpathwayscompeteforsubstrate(i.e.,compoundstooxidize).Thedirectoxidationwithaqueousozoneisrelativelyslow(comparedtohydroxylfreeradicaloxidation)buttheconcentrationofaqueousozoneisrelativelyhigh.Ontheotherhand,thehydroxylradicalreactionisfast,buttheconcentrationofhydroxylradicalsundernormalozonationconditionsisrelativelysmall.Hoigné
andBader(1977)foundthat:
∙Underacidicconditions,thedirectoxidationwithmolecularozoneisofprimaryimportance;
and
∙Underconditionsfavoringhydroxylfreeradicalproduction,suchashighpH,exposuretoUV,oradditionofhydrogenperoxide,thehydroxyloxidationstartstodominate.
ThislattermechanismisusedinadvancedoxidationprocessessuchasdiscussedinChapter7,Peroxone,toincreasetheoxidationratesofsubstrates.
Thespontaneousdecompositionofozoneoccursthroughaseriesofsteps.Theexactmechanismandreactionsassociatedhavenotbeenestablished,butmechanisticmodelshavebeenproposed(Hoigné
Glaze,1987).Itisbelievedthathydroxylradicalsformsasoneoftheintermediateproducts,andcanreactdirectlywithcompoundsinthewater.Thedecompositionofozoneinpurewaterproceedswithhydroxylfreeradicalsproducedasanintermediateproductofozonedecomposition,resultinginthenetproductionof1.5molehydroxylfreeradicalspermoleozone.
Inthepresenceofmanycompoundscommonlyencounteredinwatertreatment,ozonedecompositionformshydroxylfreeradicals.Ozonedemandsareassociatedwiththefollowing:
∙Reactionswithnaturalorganicmatter(NOM)inthewater.TheoxidationofNOMleadstotheformationofaldehydes,organicacids,andaldo-andketoacids(Singer,1992).
∙Organicoxidationbyproducts.Organicoxidationbyproductsaregenerallymoreamenabletobiologicaldegradationandcanbemeasuredasassimilableorganiccarbon(AOC)orbiodegradabledissolvedorganiccarbon(BDOC).
∙Syntheticorganiccompounds(SOCs).SomeSOCscanbeoxidizedandmineralizedunderfavorableconditions.Toachievetotalmineralization,hydroxylradicaloxidationshouldusuallybethedominantpathway,suchasachievedinadvancedoxidationprocesses.
∙Oxidationofbromideion.Oxidationofbromideionleadstotheformationofhypobromousacid,hypobromiteion,bromateion,brominatedorganics,andbromamines(seeFigure3-2).
