Water Treatment Characteristics Using Activated Air Microbubble Jet with Photochemical Reaction

Abstract

The characteristics of functional activated air microbubble jet with UV irradiation are experimentally clarified for high performance of liquid decomposition. The decolorization of methylene blue solution improves by UV irradiation onto activated air microbubble jet for any solution pH. The effect of UV irradiation on decolorization is most intensive for neutral solution due to the enhanced radical generation through photochemical reaction.
