Abstract:Aeration accounts for 35–51% of the overall energy
consumption
in wastewater treatment processes and results in an annual energy
consumption of 5–7.5 billion kWh. Herein, a solar-powered continuous-flow
device was designed for aeration-free in situ Fenton-like reactions
to treat wastewater. This system is based on the combination of TiO2–x
/W18O49 featuring
heterophase oxygen vacancy interactions with floating reduced graphene/polyurethane
foam, which produces hydrogen peroxide in situ at the rates of up
to 4.… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
