Description:
The main objective of the project is to develop simple and cheap physico-chemical methods for reactivating sorbent cartridge of adsorption columns used for capture of polar chlorinated compounds which increase the parameter AOX. Application of aqueous solutions of liquid ion exchangers and simple way for degradation of the concentrated AOX will be applied using the know-how of University of Pardubice and commercial organizations focusing on research in organic specialty chemicals production (Výzkumný ústav organických syntéz, a.s.). To reach the main objective will be developed (I) analytical methods for sample preparation, for characterization (compound identification) and quantification of AOX adsorbed on the activated carbon in the adsorption columns operated in an industrial scale in the production of organic chemical specialties (dyes and pigments), (II) technique of effective application of the liquid ion exchangers on the sorption packing, (III) regeneration technique for already used liquid ion exchangers followed by chemical decomposition of captured AOX (verified technology, patent application), (IV) development of a method of monitoring capacity of the sorbent cartridge for capture of specific AOX.
