Abstract
Ozonation in rotating packed bed (RPB) is a promising method to treat organic pollutants in wastewater. Mass transfer efficiency of ozone in RPB is of importance to the application of this method. In this work, an overall volumetric mass-transfer coefficient (KGa) model of ozone absorption into organic solution accompanied by an irreversible pseudo-first-order reaction in an RPB was established. The mass transfer processes in both the packing and cavity zones in the RPB were considered for modeling KGa. The predicted and experimental KGa agreed well with the deviations within 10% and 15% for hydroquinone solution and phenol solution respectively, suggesting that this model has good predictability for the mass transfer process of ozone absorption into organic solutions with different reaction rates in RPB. It is also noted that ozone absorption percentage in phenol solution was 40% - 60%, but a much higher ozone absorption percentage in hydroquinone solution of 80% - 95% was achieved due to a higher KGa. These results can be used to predict the mass transfer performance of ozone in organic wastewater treatment in RPBs.

1. Introduction Ozone is a strong oxidant and has been widely used for disinfection of drinking water and advanced treatment of sewage. 1-3 Ozone can function directly or decompose into free radicals, mainly hydroxyl radicals, in the ozonation processes. Many kinds of organic compounds, especially some aromatic compounds, can react with ozone quickly. For example, the reaction rate constant of ozone and phenol is 1.3×103 L·mol1
·s-1 under acidic condition, and the constant is up to 1.4×109 L·mol-1·s-1 for anionic
phenol. Eino Mvula et al. found that the reaction rate constants of hydroquinone and ozone at pH of 3 and 7 are 1.8×106 L·mol-1·s-1 and 2.3×106 L·mol-1·s-1, respectively.4 Compared with hydroquinone, catechol has a relatively slow rate constant of 5.2×105 L·mol-1·s-1 at pH=7.4 Generally, macromolecules such as soluble aromatic compounds in wastewater may not be biodegraded directly due to their toxicity and lack of reactive sites.5 Nevertheless, these organic compounds can be oxidized into biodegradable substances by ozone.6 Therefore, ozonation does not only degrade organic compounds, reduce toxicity and remove COD (chemical oxygen demand), but also improve the biodegradability, which means an increase in BOD5/COD (biochemical oxygen demand after 5 days/chemical oxygen demand) value.7-11 The absorption efficiency of ozone is very important in the ozonation processes because ozone has a negative impact on humans, animals and plants, and the unutilized ozone has to be destructed. Owing to the low solubility of ozone in liquid, it is difficult to absorb ozone effectively in reactors like bubble columns or stirred cell reactors.12 Therefore, process intensification devices that can improve the absorption and utilization efficiency of ozone are desirable. Rotating packed bed (RPB) is a typical process intensification device, which was proposed by Ramshaw and Mallinson in 1976.13 In an RPB, centrifugal force is created to simulate a high-gravity environment for intensifying the contact between gas and liquid. Liquid is introduced into the rotor of RPB and is split into droplets, films and threads, leading to a significant increase of the specific surface area of liquid and improvement of gas-liquid mass transfer.14 RPBs have thus been used to enhance the 7

absorption of CO2,15-18 H2S19 and SO2.20 Some studies focused on combining the ozone-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) and RPB to treat organic wastewater. The results show that in addition to the improvement of removal efficiency of organic pollutants and COD, the biodegradability is enhanced markedly.21-26 Although these results demonstrate that RPB can effectively boost the efficiency of organic wastewater treatment by the ozonebased AOPs, few studies have paid attention to the effect of RPB on the mass transfer of ozone, which is of importance to the application of ozonation. Therefore, modeling the mass transfer behavior of ozone absorption into aqueous solution in RPB can provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of organic wastewater by ozonation in RPB. In this study, predicted and experimental mass transfer coefficients of ozone in an RPB were investigated. Hydroquinone and phenol solutions were studied because they are representative compounds in phenolic wastewater and the reaction rate constants of ozone with hydroquinone and phenol have a big difference. In addition, the influence of different operating parameters on the mass transfer coefficient and ozone absorption efficiency in these two organic solutions was explored.
2. Model development 2.1 Reactions of ozone in organic solution The reactions of ozone with organic compounds occur when ozone is absorbed into an organic solution. The reactions are as follows: Ozone + Organics compounds → Products
(1)
These reactions are usually second order (i.e. first order with respect to each reactant) and irreversible.27 The concentration of organic compounds in industrial effluents is generally high and excess compared to ozone. Therefore, the reactions of ozone with organic compounds are usually described as pseudo-first-order reactions that can be expressed as follows, R1 =k1 ×cO3 ×cOrganic

2.2 Gas-liquid mass transfer of ozone accompanied by irreversible reactions 2.2.1
Assumption
(1) Liquid exists as droplets and films in the packing zone and only as droplets in the cavity zone of RPB.14, 28 (2) Specific area of the packing in RPB is considered to be the specific area of filmy liquid in the packing zone.18 (3) The liquid film of filmy liquid, defined as a thin boundary layer in the filmy liquid at the gas-liquid interface, is renewed once every time when it passes through one layer of the packing in the RPB. The average life of the film in each layer, which is determined by liquid residence time in the packing and the number of packing layers, is the same.29 (4) In this study, the pH of the organic solution was adjusted to 3, and only the direct oxidation by ozone is considered. (5) The reaction is regarded as a pseudo-first-order reaction and the concentration of organic compound is assumed to be constant in the liquid film. 2.2.2
Model establishment
Ozone is absorbed from gas to liquid through the gas film and liquid film. According to the study of Onda et al.,30 the mass transfer coefficient in the gas film in an RPB can be expressed as follows, kG = 2*10-3 *(

organic solution in an RPB is given in Figure 1. The packing of the RPB is made of stainless steel wire mesh. Parameters of the RPB employed in this study is shown in Table 1. Figure 2 illustrates the internal structure of the RPB. Hydroquinone (AR, 98%) and phenol (AR, 99%) were purchased from Tianjin Fuchen Chemical Reagents Factory and Beijing Chemical Works respectively. Ozone was produced from pure oxygen by an ozone generator (3S-A10, Tonglin High-Tech Technology Co. Ltd., Beijing, China), and the ozone concentration was detected by a gaseous ozone concentration detector (3S-J5000, High-Tech Technology Co. Ltd., Beijing, China). The ozone gas was introduced into the RPB from a gas inlet and flowed inward through the cavity and packing zones in succession. The organic solution was introduced into the RPB from a liquid inlet and sprayed onto the inner edge of the packing and flowed outward through the packing and cavity zones successively. The ozone gas and the organic solution contacted countercurrently in the packing and cavity zones, allowing for the absorption of ozone into the solution with pseudo-first-order irreversible reaction. Afterwards, the gas and solution were discharged from the gas outlet and liquid outlet respectively. The outlet gas was monitored by another gaseous ozone concentration detector (UV-100, LIMICEN, Guangzhou, China) before discharged through a gas vent. The outlet ozone concentration was recorded when the concentration reached stability, and the total duration of each experiment was about 30 s to 90 s depending on the gas flow rate. The ozone absorption percentage (𝛽𝑎 ) is defined by equation (40). βa (%) =

The concentration of hydroquinone solution was determined by a UV-Vis spectrophotometer (DR6000, Hach, America) at an absorbance of 288 nm and a highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC, Waters, America) was employed to determine the concentration of phenol solution at a wavelength of 270 nm. The degradation percentage of hydroquinone and phenol is calculated by equation (41). The pH and temperature of the solutions were set as 3 and 298 K respectively in all the experiments. 14

4. Results and discussion 4.1 Determination of suitable initial hydroquinone (or phenol) concentration The assumption of pseudo-first-order reaction of ozone and organic compounds (first order with respect to ozone and zero order with respect to the organic compound) in the liquid film holds only if the initial concentration of the organic compound is excess for ozone. Therefore, the suitable initial concentration of hydroquinone (or phenol) should be determined. 16

Figure 3 demonstrates that ozone absorption percentages and degradation percentage of hydroquinone or phenol at pH of 3 with and without 0.015 mol·L-1 tertbutanol as a radical scavenger are similar, indicating that the direct reaction of ozone with hydroquinone or phenol predominates and the indirect reaction of the hydroxyl radicals with the organic compounds can be ignored at pH of 3, which was thus chosen as a suitable pH to investigate the direct reaction of ozone with hydroquinone or phenol. Figure 4 presents the ratio of consumed ozone to degraded organic compound (Z, mol·mol-1) as a function of the initial concentration of the organic compound. It can be seen that Z decreased firstly and then tended to be stable with an increase in the initial concentration of hydroquinone and phenol. When the concentrations of hydroquinone and phenol were less than 150 and 200 mg·L-1 respectively, Z decreased sharply, suggesting that the presence of competitive reactions also consumed ozone molecules. When the concentrations of hydroquinone and phenol increased over 150 and 200 mg·L-1, respectively, Z reached stability, which means ozone was almost totally consumed by hydroquinone or phenol.34 Hence, the suitable concentration for both hydroquinone solution and phenol solution was determined as 200 mg·L-1, which was adopted in the following studies. It can be seen from Figure 4 that Z was about 3 for hydroquinone solution and 2.5 for phenol solution when their initial concentration was over 200 mg·L-1. Therefore, degradation percentage of the organic compound is not given here because it can be deduced from the inlet ozone concentration, ozone absorption percentage and Z.

Ozone will pass through gas and liquid films when absorbed from gas into liquid. And KGa consists of gas (kGa) and liquid (kLa) mass-transfer coefficients. When a fast reaction occurs in liquid, KGa is approximately equal to kGa. Thus the comparison of the experimental KGa with the predicted KGa and kGa for ozone absorption into hydroquinone solution and phenol solution was conducted. Figure 5 presents the predicted KGa and experimental KGa in hydroquinone solution and phenol solution. The results indicate the deviations of the experimental and predicted KGa were within 10% and 15% for hydroquinone solution and phenol solution respectively, suggesting that the model has good predictability for the absorption of ozone into organic solution in RPB with different reaction rates (phenol is 1.3×103 L·mol-1·s-1 and hydroquinone is 1.8×106 L·mol-1·s-1). Figure 5a shows that the deviations between the experimental KGa and predicted kGa were within 15% for hydroquinone solution. These results reveal that the kGa from the model has a certain predictability, although not as precise as the KGa from the model, for the reactive absorption of ozone in RPB with a high reaction rate. The deviations between the experimental KGa and predicted kGa in phenol solution were in the range of approximately 200 - 600%, as shown in Table 2. Thus kGa from the model cannot be used to predict KGa for the reactive absorption of ozone in RPB with a relatively low reaction rate.

4.3 Effect of rotation speed The effect of rotation speed of the RPB on KGa is shown in Figure 6a. It can be seen that KGa increased for both hydroquinone and phenol solutions with the increase of rotation speed from 200 to 1200 rpm. Liquid is split into smaller droplets with larger surface area and the surface renewal rate of liquid increases with an increasing rotation speed, leading to a larger kLa. Since kLa contributes notably to KGa for ozone absorption into those solutions, a larger KGa resulted due to a higher rotation speed. These results indicate that RPB is suitable for the intensification of ozone absorption with fast reactions. Figure 6b shows ozone absorption percentage in hydroquinone solution and phenol solution at various rotation speed. It can be found that ozone absorption reached more than 90% in hydroquinone solution and about 50 - 60% in phenol solution. Compared to phenol, hydroquinone has a faster reaction rate with ozone (1.8 × 106 L·mol-1·s-1 vs. 1.3×103 L·mol-1·s-1), leading to a higher kLa and thereby higher KGa as shown in Figure 6a and better ozone absorption effect.

22
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Page 23 of 32
Figure 7 demonstrates the effect of liquid flow rate on KGa and ozone absorption in hydroquinone and phenol solutions. It can be seen that KGa and ozone absorption percentage in both hydroquinone and phenol solutions increased with an increase in the liquid flow rate from 15 to 90 L·h-1. The increase of liquid flow rate can cause an increase in the specific surface area of liquid and liquid holdup and a decrease in the mean lifetime of filmy liquid, thereby leading to an increase of kLa and KGa as well as ozone absorption percentage in these two solutions. These results suggest that higher liquid flow rate is beneficial for mass transfer in systems with fast reactions.

4.5 Effect of gas flow rate The effect of gas flow rate on KGa and ozone absorption in hydroquinone and phenol solutions is given in Figure 8, which shows that KGa in both hydroquinone and phenol solutions rose with an increase of the gas flow rate from 45 to 180 L·h-1. Because KGa in both hydroquinone and phenol solutions is affected by kGa, an increase in the gas flow rate can cause the rise in gas turbulence and the decline in gas film thickness, thereby leading to the increase of kGa and KGa. It can be seen that the increase in KGa in hydroquinone solution was greater than that in phenol solution because the influence of kGa on KGa in hydroquinone solution is more significant than that in phenol solution. Figure 8b shows that ozone absorption percentage decreased with an increase in gas flow rate as a result of rising gas-liquid ratio.

4.6 Effect of inlet ozone concentration
25
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research
Figure 9a shows that KGa in hydroquinone solution and phenol solution went up with a rising inlet ozone concentration. A higher inlet ozone concentration can enhance the mass transfer in gas film and thus kGa and KGa increases with the increase of inlet ozone concentration. Similar to Figure 8a, the increase in KGa in hydroquinone solution was greater than that in phenol solution with rising inlet ozone concentration. A higher inlet ozone concentration leads to a higher kGa, which affects KGa more markedly in hydroquinone solution and gives rise to a greater increase in KGa. Figure 9b indicates that ozone absorption percentage increased with an increasing inlet ozone concentration. These phenomena are ascribed to the combined effect of a higher KGa and driving force for mass transfer of ozone as a result of higher gaseous ozone concentration.

4.7 Initial concentration of organic compound The effect of the initial concentration of hydroquinone and phenol on KGa is shown in Figure10a. KGa increased as the initial concentration increased, and the rise of KGa in phenol solution was greater than that in hydroquinone solution. An increase in the initial concentration of organic compound can enhance the apparent reaction rate of ozone with the compound, leading to a higher kLa. Hence, KGa is expected to increase with an increasing initial concentration of organic compound. It was also noted that KGa in phenol solution was affected by kLa more significantly than that in hydroquinone solution, resulting in a greater increase of KGa in phenol solution from 1.07×10-5 to 1.38×10-5 mol·pa-1·m-3·s-1 when the initial phenol concentration increased from 200 to 600 mg·L-1, while KGa in hydroquinone solution increased only from 3.40×10-5 to 3.49×10-5 mol·pa-1·m-3·s-1. 27

5. Conclusion In this work, by obtaining the analytical expression of the concentration distribution of ozone with respect to time and penetration depth in liquid film as well as the analytical expression of gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient, a mathematic model of ozone absorption into organic solution accompanied by an irreversible pseudo-firstorder reaction in an RPB was developed for the quantitative description of the mass transfer process of ozone in the RPB and the prediction of KGa. It is found that the KGa values predicted by the model were in good agreement with the experimental values. And the deviations of the experimental and predicted KGa were within 10% and 15% for hydroquinone solution and phenol solution respectively, suggesting that the model has good predictability for the absorption of ozone into organic solution in RPB with different reaction rates. The comparison of KGa of ozone absorption into hydroquinone solution and phenol solution reveal that KGa is affected more significantly by kGa with an increasing reaction rate of ozone and organic 29

compound. Experimental results indicate that a higher rotation speed of the RPB, liquid flow rate, gas flow rate and inlet ozone concentration is favorable for the mass transfer of ozone in the RPB. It was observed that ozone absorption percentage in phenol solution was generally 40% - 60%, while ozone absorption percentage in hydroquinone solution reached approximately 80% - 95% as a result of a higher KGa. This work provides fundamentals for the application of ozone for the treatment of organic wastewater in RPBs.
