A Dispersion model for ozone inside the rectangular duct of an indoor air quality pilot plant was simulated. Using this the concentration profiles of ozone at several points downstream of ozone insertion were simulated and they matched well with experimental results. Recommendations for future work are cited.
A thermodynamic study was conducted to check the levels of concentration in which certain toxic compounds could be present due to the oxidation of pre-determined chlorinated compounds. STANJAN, a package which solves for equilibrium concentrations using the element potential method, was used. Recommendations for future work are cited.
A Reaction model was developed for the global oxidation reactions occurring in the catalyst bed which is situated downstream of the ozone insertion. Once this was done, the effect of moisture and temperature were studied qualitatively and recommendations for further work are Cited. / Master of Science
