Abstract
The effect of ozonation catalyzed with MgO/granular activated carbon (MgO/GAC) composite as a pretreatment
process on the performance of cyclic rotating-bed biological reactor (CRBR) for the catechol
removal from wastewater has been investigated. CRBR with acclimated biomasses could efficiently
remove catechol and its related COD from wastewater at organic loading rate (OLR) of 7.82 kg COD/m3.d
(HRT of 9 h). Then, OLR increased to 15.64 kg COD/m3.d (HRT of 4.5 h) and CRBR failed. Catalytic
ozonation process (COP) used as a pre-treatment and could improve the performance of the failed CRBR.
The overall removal efficiency of the combined process attained respective steady states of 91% and 79%
for degradation and COD removal of catechol. Therefore, the combined process is more effective in
degradation and COD removal of catechol; it is also a viable alternative for upgrading industrial
wastewater treatment plant
