The Effect of Ozonation in Reducing Trihalomethane Formation PotentialLin, Simon H. 05 1900 (has links)
Trihalomethanes such as chloroform, dichlorobromomethane, dibromochloromethane, and bromoform are formed when natural water is chlorinated in water treatment. This investigation explores the use of ozone to remove organic precursors from natural water, thus decreasing trihalomethane formation potential. The data suggest a mechanism involving formation of secondary precursors after prolonged contact with ozone, suggesting that trihalomethane precursors may be minimized by using low doses of ozone and short contact time.

The synthesis and characterization of ZnS nanoparticles from zinc-based thiourea derivative complexes for potential use in photocatalysisLethobane, Manthako Hycinth January 2017 (has links)
A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree
Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Chemistry. Johannesburg, 31 October 2017. / Nanotechnology has been instrumental in finding strategies of combating some of the world’s grand challenges. Water scarcity and the growing industrialization have made it an imperative to find ways of cleaning water. Photocatalysis is a promising method for water purification personified by the use of solar energy as well as nanomaterials with tailored properties. Colloidal synthesis has made it possible to synthesize new materials with tailored properties, in particular the single-source precursor method has been found to be a useful method in synthesizing nanomaterials with high purity. In the synthesis of metal chalcogenides, the single-source precursor method has an advantage of the precursor having the desired metal-chalcogenide bond hence eliminating the possible formation of side products particularly metal oxides. Herein, acylthiourea (ATU) and thiourea (TU) zinc complexes were used as precursors for the synthesis of ZnS nanoparticles. Bis(N,N-diethyl-N’-benzoylthiourea)Zn(II) [Zn(ATU)2] and bis(diaminomethylthio)Zn(II) chloride [Zn(TU)2Cl2] complexes were synthesized using a conventional method and characterized with elemental analysis, 1H NMR , 2D NMR, COSY, FTIR, mass spectrometry and X-Ray crystallography.
The resultant precursors, Zn(ATU)2 and Zn(TU)2Cl2 complexes were then thermolyzed to yield ZnS nanocrystals and characterized fully. Reaction parameters that included the synthetic time, temperature, concentration and capping agents were optimized for each single-source precursor in an attempt to control the nanoparticles yielded hence their properties. Time and temperature studies generally demonstrated the most pronounced effect and with an increase, they showed increasing particle sizes through the Ostwald ripening effect. Also visible from the TEM was that the temperature had an effect on the morphology of the nanoparticles. Increasing the precursor concentration resulted in the agglomeration of nanoparticles, while using different capping agents yielded similar nanoparticles with different degrees of agglomeration. Evident from the results the ATU precursor behaved similar to the TU precursor and generally the particles obtained from the two precursors regardless of the reaction condition were very small. Preliminary investigations into the use of the synthesized nanoparticles obtained from the two precursors revealed potential in photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) dye in water. While smaller particles were obtained from the synthesized nanoparticles, the degradation efficiencies were lower than the
commercial ZnO and TiO2. This is due to the presence of the long-chained capping agents on the synthesized particles blocking the interaction of the core ZnS and the light. / LG2018

Paint wastewater treatment using Fe3+ and Al3+ saltsNtwampe, Irvin Oupa Lesele 10 September 2014 (has links)
A PhD thesis submitted to the Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering.
Johannesburg / This study involves the investigation of the paint wastewater treatment using inorganic coagulants such as FeCl3, Fe2(SO4)3, AlCl3 and Al2(SO4)3 in a jar test during rapid and slow mixing for 250 and 100 rpm respectively, settled the samples, measure the pH and turbidity. The pH, turbidity and area covered by the flocs were used as measurements in this study to determine the quality of treated paint wastewater.
In the first experiment, 200 mL sample of 169.2 g of paint wastewater dissolved in 1L of potable water was poured into six 500 mL glass beakers sample dosed with FeCl3 only, combined FeCl3 and Ca(OH)2 or Mg(OH)2 as well as FeCl3-Ca(OH)2 and FeCl3-Mg(OH)2 polymers respectively, run through a jar test with rapid and slow mixing. The supernatant was extracted after 1 hour settling to measure the pH and turbidity. The observations showed that combined FeCl3 and Mg(OH)2 as well as FeCl3-Mg(OH)2 polymers yielded identical and slightly higher turbidity removal than combined FeCl3 and Ca(OH)2 and FeCl3-Ca(OH)2 polymers.
Another batch of experiments was carried out using the same metal salts with Ca(OH)2 and Mg(OH)2 respectively for pH adjustment. The samples were treated in a jar test using various dosing patterns such as dosages, dosing prior or during mixing, combined dosages interchangeably, retention time. A third batch of experiments was carried out by dosing synthetic polymers of FeCl2-Ca(OH)2 and FeCl2-Mg(OH)2 respectively using similar dosing patterns. The results obtained in first set of experiments, were Fe3+ and Al3+ salts were added in paint wastewater showed that the changing pH correlates with turbidity removal. It was also observed that dosing prior or during mixing do not play any significant role in wastewater treatment. Another observation showed that flocculation of the paint wastewater dosed with FeCl2-Ca(OH)2 or FeCl2-Mg(OH)2 polymers do not show correlation between the
pH and turbidity, which indicates that the pH is not an indicator of turbidity removal in a more alkaline solutions such as paint wastewater.
A second study was carried out using the same paint wastewater samples (200 mL) and samples dosed with Fe3+ and Al3+ salts treated in a jar test and immediately two drops of supernatant were placed on a microscope slide and view it under a microscope connected to a camera, images were captured after 1, 60 and 90 minutes respectively (Exp A). Samples were prepared from the original paint wastewater and the standard solution of Fe3+ and Al3+ in a small scale using identical metal salt/paint wastewater volume ratios as above. Two drops from the paint wastewater and metal salt solution were place on a microscope slide and images were captured as above using 1, 60 and 90 minutes respectively (Exp B). All the visuals were printed and the visuals obtained in Exp A were compared with their corresponding visuals in Exp B in accordance with time. The results obtained showed that the percentage area covered by flocs treated in a jar test (Exp A) correlates linearly with the percentage area covered by the flocs from a microscope slide (Exp B). The results obtained using this technique also confirm that the reaction between the drops of a sample and the drops of coagulant produces well-developed solid hydrolysis species.
A third study was carried out by pouring 200 mL of the same paint wastewater samples into six 500 mL glass beakers and with Fe3+ and Al3+ salts as above, run through a jar test during 30, 45 and 60 seconds rapid mixing (250 rpm) only for 2 minutes respectively. The samples settled for 1 hour, and then pH and turbidity were measured. Another experiment was carried out using the similar method as above with samples run through a jar test at 250 rpm during 30, 45 and 60 seconds rapid mixing (250 rpm) for 2 minutes followed by slow mixing (100 rpm) for 10 minutes (combined rapid and slow mixing). The samples settled for 1 hour, and then pH and turbidity were measured. The results obtained from the jar tests (comparison
between flocculation during rapid mixing only and combined rapid and slow mixing) showed that the pH in the samples with rapid mixing shows an insignificant change compared to their corresponding samples with combined rapid and slow mixing; turbidity in the samples with 30, 45 and 60 seconds rapid mixing showed that most of the flocs are formed within 30 seconds. There is a correlation between the pH and turbidity when paint wastewater is dosed with Fe3+ or Al3+ metal ions in their respective metal salts without pH adjustment. The Fe3+ and Al3+ of the same concentration yield a similar pH and turbidity trend.
