Nano-ZnO photocatalyst was prepared using direct precipitation method .The crystal form, particle size and configuration characterization of the nano-ZnO prepared was characterized by XRD and SEM. The photocatalytic degradation of ammonia-N in aquaculture wastewater was investigated by using nano-ZnO under UV irradiation. The experimental results show that: nano-ZnO dosage, catalytic reaction time, initial ammonia-N concentration, H2O2volume concentration, pH value affect the efficiency of photocatalytic degradation significantly. On the basis of the results of these experimental data, the optimal experimental conditions for photocatalytic degradation of ammonia-N are tried through the orthogonal test. The optimization experimental conditions for photocatalytic degradation of ammonia-N in aquaculture wastewater are as follows, nano-ZnO catalyst dosage was 0.4 g/L, the pH value of solution was 10, H2O2volume fraction was 4 %, respectively, if the reaction time may last 1 h, the removal rate of ammonia-N was expected to reach 86.66 %.
The nano-TiO2photocatalyst was prepared via sol-gel method, and the crystal structure and surface morphology were characterized by XRD and SEM. The photocatalytic degradation of ammonia-N in aquaculture wastewater was investigated by using nano-TiO2under UV irradiation. In the experiment, the effect of nano-TiO2dosage, ammonia-N initial concentration, pH value, H2O2volume concentration, and reaction time, respectively, on the removal of ammonia-N was investigated. On the basis of the results of these experimental data, an orthogonal array experimental design was used to select more efficient degradation condition. The optimal experimental conditions for photocatalytic degradation of ammonia-N can be stated as follows: when the concentration of ammonia-N was 20 mg/L, nano-TiO2catalyst dosage was 1.2 g/L, the pH value of solution was 5, H2O2volume fraction was 4 %, respectively, if the reaction time may last 3 h, the removal rate of ammonia-N was expected to reach 92.10 %.
The Fe3+-doped nano-TiO2 catalyst with various amounts of dopant Fe3+ irons was prepared by a sol-gel method. The products were characterized by XRD and SEM. The photocatalytic degradation of ammonia nitrogen in aquaculture wastewater was investigated by using Fe3+-doped nano-TiO2 under UV irradiation. In the experiment, the effect of Fe3+/TiO2 dosage, the ratio of dopant Fe3+, ammonia-N initial concentration, pH value, H2O2 volume concentration, and reaction time, respectively, on the removal of ammonia-N was investigated. The experimental results can be stated as follows: when the ratio of dopant Fe3+ was 0.25% wt, the dosage of Fe3+/TiO2 was 0.7 g/L, the initial concentration of ammonia-N was 10 mg/L, H2O2 volume fraction was 4 %, respectively, if the reaction time may last 4 h, the removal rate of ammonia-N was expected to reach 97.17 %.
