Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetics and mechanism of the degradation and mineralization of acetone in dilute aqueous solution sensitized by the UV photolysis of hydrogen peroxide
TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation of acetone was carried out in a UV reactor in the presence of ∼16 mM H2O2 such that most of the UV was absorbed by H 2O2.
Journal ArticleDOI
UV/H2O2 Treatment of Methyl tert-Butyl Ether in Contaminated Waters
TL;DR: In this paper, the common techniques often used for the removal of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) from groundwaters contaminated by gasoline spills or from leaking underground storage tanks are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of the Degradation of 1,4-Dioxane in Dilute Aqueous Solution Using the UV/Hydrogen Peroxide Process
TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation mechanism of 1,4-dioxane and its byproducts in dilute aqueous solution toward complete mineralization was investigated by using the UV/H2O2 process in a UV semibatch reactor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum Yield of the Iodide–Iodate Chemical Actinometer: Dependence on Wavelength and Concentration¶
TL;DR: The results showed a 20% reduction in QY between 240 and 280 nm as compared with radiometry, which suggests that the QY of the ferrioxalate actinometer in this region of the spectrum needs reexamination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of the quantum yields of the potassium ferrioxalate and potassium iodide–iodate actinometers and a method for the calibration of radiometer detectors
TL;DR: In this paper, the quantum yields for two actinometers have been determined using a tunable laser light source at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, MD.
