Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) in aqueous solution was measured using HPLC technique, which was established by acetonitrile analysis and KDP solution analysis methods. In these experiments the decomposition characteristics of BPA were compared using the ozone alone, ozone/pH 10, and ozone/hydrogen peroxide processes. About 70% of 10 mg/L of BPA was removed during 60 min by the ozone alone process, while 10 mg/L of BPA was completely removed by the ozone/pH 10 and ozone/hydrogen peroxide processes in 40 min and 60 min, respectively. The final decomposition efficiency drawn from results of TOC and HPLC analyses showed that the ozone/hydrogen peroxide process was the best among them, whereas the concentrations of TOC and reaction intermediates when using the ozone/pH 10 process were higher than those of the ozone alone process after 60 min of reaction. The ozone/hydrogen peroxide process was the most efficient among them when oxidizing organic carbons in water to $CO_2$ and $H_2O$.
