Batch and column experiments were conducted to test the oxidation ability of the material. Comparisons with the oxidizing agents usually used in arsenic treatment systems were also conducted. In addition, the material has been tested coupled with an iron-based arsenic sorbent, in order to verify its suitability for the dearsenication of drinking waters. IodAC exhibited a high and lasting oxidation potential, since the column tests executed on water spiked with 50 mg/L of arsenic (100% arsenite) showed that 1 cc of IodAC (30 wt% I2) can oxidize about 25 mg of As(III) (0.33 mmol) before showing a dwindling in the oxidation ability. Moreover, an improvement of the arsenic sorption capability of the tested sorbent was also proved. The results confirmed that IodAC is suitable for implementation in water dearsenication plants, in place of the commonly used oxidizing agents, such as sodium hypochlorite or potassium permanganate, and in association with arsenic sorbents.

  • Comparative Study of Oxidants in Removal of Chemical Oxygen Demand from the Wastewater (IJIRST/ Volume 4 / Issue 1/ 011)
    IJIRST –International Journal for Innovative Research in Science & Technology| Volume 4 | Issue 1 | June 2017 ISSN (online): 2349-6010 Comparative Study of Oxidants in Removal of Chemical Oxygen Demand from the Wastewater Prof Dr K N Sheth Kavita V Italia Director PG Student Geetanjali Institute of Technical Studies, Udaipur Department of Environmental Engineering Institute of Science & Technology for Advanced Studies & Research, Vallabh Vidyanagar Abstract Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) test involves chemical oxidation using chromic acid as a strong oxidizer. COD of a wastewater sample is the amount of oxidant- potassium dichromate that reacts with the sample when it is heated for 2 hours under controlled environmental conditions and result is expressed as mg of oxidant consumed per liter of a given sample of wastewater. COD can be helpful in determining the quantity required for dilution needed for conducting Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) five day test. In the present investigation attempts have been made to use other oxidants like hydrogen peroxide H2O2, sodium hypo-chlorite, calcium hypo-chlorite and potassium permanganate for measurement of COD by standard method and compare the results obtained using potassium dichromate as strong oxidant. Experiments were carried out for each oxidizing agent for COD removal at temperatures like 1000C, 750C and 500C. The duration of exposure time in each experimental set up was taken as temperature wise, for 1000C, it was 1-5 minutes , for 750C it was 20-40 minutes and for 500C it was 45-75 minutes. It was found that temperature plays very important role in in deciding the exposure time to be allocated for reduction of COD.

  • 20 More About Oxidation–Reduction Reactions
    More About 20 Oxidation–Reduction Reactions OOC n important group of organic reactions consists of those that O A involve the transfer of electrons C from one molecule to another. Organic chemists H OH use these reactions—called oxidation–reduction reactions or redox reactions—to synthesize a large O variety of compounds. Redox reactions are also important C in biological systems because many of these reactions produce HH energy. You have seen a number of oxidation and reduction reactions in other chapters, but discussing them as a group will give you the opportunity to CH3OH compare them. In an oxidation–reduction reaction, one compound loses electrons and one com- pound gains electrons. The compound that loses electrons is oxidized, and the one that gains electrons is reduced. One way to remember the difference between oxidation and reduction is with the phrase “LEO the lion says GER”: Loss of Electrons is Oxi- dation; Gain of Electrons is Reduction. The following is an example of an oxidation–reduction reaction involving inorganic reagents: Cu+ + Fe3+ ¡ Cu2+ + Fe2+ In this reaction,Cu+ loses an electron, so Cu+ is oxidized. Fe3+ gains an electron, so Fe3+ is reduced. The reaction demonstrates two important points about oxidation– reduction reactions. First, oxidation is always coupled with reduction. In other words, a compound cannot gain electrons (be reduced) unless another compound in the reaction simultaneously loses electrons (is oxidized). Second, the compound that is oxidized (Cu+) is called the reducing agent because it loses the electrons that are used to reduce the other compound (Fe3+). Similarly, the compound that is reduced (Fe3+) is called the oxidizing agent because it gains the electrons given up by the other compound (Cu+) when it is oxidized.

  • Chapter 2 Web Text Box 4 Hocl, an Acid and an Oxidizing Agent
    Chapter 2 Web Text Box 4 HOCl, an acid and an oxidizing agent Chlorine bleach is a solution of sodium hypochlorite, NaOCl. This is an ionic compound and in water exists as Na+ and OCl- ions. Hypochlorite is the deprotonated form of hypochlorous acid HOCl, which is a very weak acid: its pKa is 7.53. Thus in the NaOCl solution some of the hypochlorite ions grab an H+ from water, leaving OH- behind. The result is that the solution is alkaline: usually about pH 11, although more concentrated solutions have an even higher pH. You should be able to calculate what fraction of the total hypochlorite is protonated at pH 11: check that you can! Try the calculation yourself, then check the answer in the box below! The pKa of hypochlorous acid HOCl is 7.53. What percentage of the total hypochlorite is protonated at pH 11.0; that is, calculate the value of 100 x [HOCl] / ( [HOCl] + [OCl-] )? Although HOCl is a very weak acid the hypochlorous ion is a strong oxidizing agent and will readily give up the oxygen atom leaving a simple chloride ion Cl-. One of the chemical groups that it attacks is the –SH side group on the amino acid cysteine. Two cysteine side chains are oxidized and form a disulfide bond: Chlorine bleach: an illustration of acid/base and oxidation/reduction reactions The cysteines have been oxidized because they have lost hydrogen atoms. Notice the distinction between deprotonation, the loss of H+, which is what we see in the reaction - + HOCl + H2O → OCl + H3O and the loss of complete hydrogen atoms, which is what has happened to the cysteines.

  • Redox Reactions Is
    Chapter 10 OXIDATION-REDUCTION REACTIONS Oxidation – reduction reactions are those involving the transfer of electrons from one substance to another (no bonding formed or broken). Example: Fe 3+ + e- çè Fe 2+ Protons (H+) are often involved in these reactions also. Another example of redox reactions is: - + H2O2 + 2e + 2H 2H2O Rules for the assigning of oxidation numbers 1. All species in their elemental form are given the oxidatio435n number of zero. 2. All monoatomic ions have the same oxidation number as the charge on the ion. e.g. Mg 2+ has the oxidation number of +2. 3. All combined hydrogen has an oxidation number of +1 (except metal hydrides where its oxidation number is -1). 4. All combined oxygen has an oxidation number of -2 (except peroxides where the oxidation number is -1). 5. In polyatomic species, the sum of the oxidation numbers of the element in the ion equals the charge on that species (we can use this to find the oxidation number of elements in polyatomic species). A. Source of electrons in soils. Electrons dTPSSo not flow around by themselves but they m ust be provided by some sources . In soils, the main source of electrons is carbon atoms of organic matter because carbon has a wide range of oxidation states. Example: CH4 + 2O2 2H2O + CO2 Ox. # (-4) Ox. # (+4) - The reaction (CH4 ® CO2) releases 8e Other common sources of e – are nitrogen and sulfur atoms because they can also have several oxidation states. The availability of electrons usually controls the oxidation/reduction reactions and this availability is expressed as redox potentials.

  • 4. Production, Import/Export, Use, And, Disposal 4.1
    SULFUR DIOXIDE 109 4. PRODUCTION, IMPORT/EXPORT, USE, AND, DISPOSAL 4.1 PRODUCTION Sulfur dioxide has been produced commercially from the following raw materials: elemental sulfur; pyrites; sulfide ores of non-ferrous metals; waste sulfuric acid and sulfates; gypsum and anhydrite; hydrogen sulfide- containing waste gases; and flue gases from the combustion of sulfurous fossil fuels (IARC 1992). It is most commonly produced by burning sulfur but can also be produced by burning pyrites in a special furnace or by purifying and compressing sulfur dioxide gas from smelting operations. Sulfur dioxide has been produced by burning molten sulfur in a special burner with a controlled amount of air. The burner gas, free of dust and cooled, is dissolved in water in a series of two towers. In a third tower, the solution is sprayed at the top and flows down while steam is injected at the base. The gas issuing from the third tower is then cooled to remove most moisture and passed up a fourth tower against a countercurrent of sulfuric acid. The dried gas is liquefied by compression (IARC 1992). Sulfur dioxide can also be recovered commercially by liquefying gas obtained during smelting of non-ferrous metals such as lead, copper, and nickel. Much of this smelter by-product is recovered and oxidized to sulfur trioxide for producing sulfuric acid. Sulfur dioxide recovery, however, usually occurs only for environmental reasons (IARC 1992). Sulfur dioxide was produced for sale at levels of 64,000 tons in 1960,99,000 tons in 1970, 124,000 tons in 1980, and 227,000 tons in 1987.

  • REDOX TITRATIONS with IODINE Introduction
    REDOX TITRATIONS WITH IODINE Introduction The shelf life of pharmaceutical products must always be tested. Hydrogen peroxide used in disinfectants is slowly reduced to water; it also photodegrades. Vitamin C in vitamin tablets is inherently unstable, being slowly oxidized by air. The ability to accurately and reliably determine the concentration of the active ingredients in various formulations is an important one. In this lab you will determine the content of hydrogen peroxide in a pharmaceutical disinfectant, as well as the concentration of ascorbic acid in Vitamin C supplemental tablets. Both analyses will involve the potentiometric titration of aqueous iodine with sodium thiosulfate using an automatic titrator. A platinum ring indicator electrode is used to follow the progress of the titration curve by potentiometry. Background Titrations Involving Iodine Iodine is a moderately weak oxidizing agent; it is reduced to form the iodide anion, as follows: – – I2(aq) + 2e l 2I (aq) E° = 0.621 V The above redox reaction is completely reversible, and so the iodide anion is a moderately weak reducing agent that will react with oxidizing analytes to produce iodine. Titrations involving iodine have evolved for the analysis of a number of oxidizing and reducing agents. In iodimetric titrations, the analyte (a reducing agent) reacts with iodine to produce iodide: – iodimetry Aox + I2 t Ared + 2I where Aox and Ared are the oxidized and reduced forms, respectively, of the analyte. In iodometric titrations, the analyte (an oxidizing agent) reacts with an unmeasured excess of iodide to produce iodine: – iodometry Ared + 2I t Aox + I2 excess The iodine produced in this reaction is stoichiometrically related to the amount of analyte originally present in the sample.
