In-Situ Measurement of AOX Biodegradation, 1995 Environmental Conference Proceedings

Chris L. Williams, Sujit Banerjee--The use of chlorine containing compounds in pulp bleaching inevitably leads to the formation of chlorinated organic compounds (AOX). With recently proposed EPA guidelines as to the amount of these compounds that can be released in mill effluent streams, concern has arisen over reducing AOX emissions. One way of accomplishing this is by increasing AOX removal in the secondary treatment system. A technique has been developed to map the degradation of AOX compounds in specific locations throughout the secondary treatment system. The relationship between location and degradation can be used to better understand exactly what is occurring in the treatment system and to determine the most effective modifications to increase treatment efficiency. The technique can also be used as a monitoring tool to determine how these changes affect AOX degradation.
