Abstract

In present study, reduction of phenol by advanced oxidation process such as UV/H2O2. Many factors influence the oxidation process such as the pH value, contact time and the amount of hydrogen peroxide. The maximum chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biological oxygen demand (BOD) range from 80∼533 mg/l and 15∼50mg/l were achieved after treatment at phenol concentration 20, 30, 40 and 50 mg/l with 2, 4, 6 and 7 ml of H2O2 dosage and contact time 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 min. The Maximum reduction in COD and BOD were 79.1% and 68%, respectively was achieved by UV/H2O2 process.
