Thesis topic:
Removal of nitrogen compounds by advanced oxidation processes
Motivation
The removal of nitrogen from wastewater is mostly done by biological processes at the wastewater treatment plants (activated sludge process - nitrification, denitrification). The aim of this work is to do experiments and check whether there is a way to oxidize ammonia nitrogen by the chosen advanced oxidation process (AOP) - specifically by ozonation. The ideal product of the oxidation should be gaseous nitrogen N2. If this process is successful and efficient, it will be an interesting alternative to widely used (biological) processes, especially for problematic wastewater.
