Design of a micro-channel reactor for decomposition of organic pollutants in waste water treatment
Résumé
Photocatalytic micro-channel reactor was built by using stereolithography process. A reactor with a micro-channel as a support of TiO2 photocatalyst was designed in order to reduce dimensions while improving the efficiency. Photocatalytic activity of the micro-reactor at various flow rates was evaluated by the inlet and outlet concentrations of salicylic acid as a model of pollutant. Influence of the initial pollutant concentration, the irradiation intensity on the rate of degradation of the pollutant was studied. A model with the kinetic parameters for the given support geometry was applied to reactor design and scale-up.
