Previous issue date: 2002-10-10 / Photo-oxidation processes of toxic organic compounds have been widely studied. This work seeks the application of the photo-Fenton process for the degradation of hydrocarbons in water. The gasoline found in the refinery, without additives and alcohol, was used as the model pollutant. The effects of the concentration of the following substances have been properly evaluated: hydrogen peroxide (100-200 mM), iron ions (0.5-1 mM) and sodium chloride (200 2000 ppm). The experiments were accomplished in reactor with UV lamp and in a falling film solar reactor. The photo-oxidation process was monitored by measurements of the absorption spectra, total organic carbon (TOC) and chemical oxygen demand (COD). Experimental results demonstrated that the photo-Fenton process is feasible for the treatment of wastewaters containing aliphatic hydrocarbons, inclusive in the presence of salts. These conditions are similar to the water produced by the petroleum fields, generated in the extraction and production of petroleum. A neural network model of process correlated well the observed data for the photooxidation process of hydrocarbons / Processos de fotooxida??o de compostos org?nicos t?xicos t?m sido bastante estudados. Este trabalho trata da aplica??o do processo foto-Fenton para a degrada??o de hidrocarbonetos em ?gua. A gasolina de refinaria, sem aditivos e ?lcool, foi usada como poluente modelo. O efeito das concentra??es dos seguintes compostos foi avaliado: per?xido de hidrog?nio (100-200mM), ?ons ferrosos (0,5-1,0mM) e cloreto de s?dio (200-2000ppm). Os experimentos foram realizados em um reator com l?mpada UV e em um reator solar tipo filme descendente. O processo de foto-oxida??o foi monitorado por medidas do espectro de absor??o, carbono org?nico total (TOC) e demanda qu?mica de oxig?nio (DQO). Os resultados experimentais demonstram que o processo foto-Fenton ? vi?vel para o tratamento de efluentes contendo hidrocarbonetos alif?ticos, inclusive na presen?a de sais, sob condi??es similares ?s das ?guas de produ??o de campos de petr?leo, geradas na extra??o e produ??o de petr?leo. Um modelo do processo, baseado em redes neurais, correlacionou bem os dados observados para o processo de fotooxida??o de hidrocarbonetos
