The ozone oxidation of endocrine disruptor (bisphenol A) in drinking water was investigated. With the initial concentration of 1.0 mg/L, the removal efficiency of BPA (bisphenol A) could be measure up to 70%, 82%, 90% when the dosage of ozone was 1 mg/L, 1.5 mg/L, 2 mg/L respectively within 30 minutes. The impacts of BPA degradation under the conditions of different ozone dosages, different water background value, different BPA initial concentration and different ozone adding time were analyzed. The results show that ozone dosage play a dominant role during the process of BPA degradation, while the impact of the contact time could be ignored. The UV wavelength scanning is used to conform that the by-products were produced, which can be absorbed at UV254, and the UV254 keeps changing with the ozonation process. From the change of UV254, it can be drawn that BPA can not be completely degraded with low ozone dosage, while less adding time of total ozone dosage, high ozone dosage, improvement of dissolved ozone concentration will do great contribution to the extent of BPA degradation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010126 Ozone The unstable triatomic form of oxygen, O3. It is a powerful oxidant that is produced for various chemical and industrial uses. Its production is also catalyzed in the ATMOSPHERE by ULTRAVIOLET RAY irradiation of oxygen or other ozone precursors such as VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS and NITROGEN OXIDES. About 90% of the ozone in the atmosphere exists in the stratosphere (STRATOSPHERIC OZONE).

D014881 Water Supply Means or process of supplying water (as for a community) usually including reservoirs, tunnels, and pipelines and often the watershed from which the water is ultimately drawn. (Webster, 3d ed) Supplies, Water,Supply, Water,Water Supplies
D052244 Endocrine Disruptors Exogenous agents, synthetic and naturally occurring, which are capable of disrupting the functions of the ENDOCRINE SYSTEM including the maintenance of HOMEOSTASIS and the regulation of developmental processes. Endocrine disruptors are compounds that can mimic HORMONES, or enhance or block the binding of hormones to their receptors, or otherwise lead to activating or inhibiting the endocrine signaling pathways and hormone metabolism.

D018508 Water Purification Any of several processes in which undesirable impurities in water are removed or neutralized; for example, chlorination, filtration, primary treatment, ion exchange, and distillation. It includes treatment of WASTEWATER to provide potable and hygienic water in a controlled or closed environment as well as provision of public drinking water supplies.
