Role of Physicochemical and Spectroscopic Methods to Characterize the insitu Chemical Speciation of the Inorganic Contaminants for Remediation of Water Pollution, and Global Warming Through the Catalytic Oxidants and ‘Predictive Model of Chemical Reaction Kinetics (PM-CRK)’
Author(s): Virendra Goswami*
In the present investigations the efforts are focused to develop physicochemical and spectroscopic methods to characterize the in-situ chemical speciation of the inorganic contaminants and develop Predictive Model of Chemical Reaction Kinetics (PM-CRK) for remediation of water pollution by catalytic oxidants. The Oxidation process would be employed to treat Groundwater contaminants by making use of the chemical oxidant s viz. hydrogen peroxide, persulfate, permanganate & ozone. These oxidants have been able to cause the rapid and complete chemical destruction of many toxic organic chemicals; other organics are amenable to partial degradation as an aid to subsequent bioremediation. Water gets polluted due to toxins & toxic gases. There are generally four types of toxic entities: chemical, biological, physical and radiation. Chemical toxicants include inorganic substan..
