The following sources of UV radiation used for photochemical wastewater treatment are considered: medium and low pressure mercury lamps, KrCl and KrBr excimer lamps, and a pulsed xenon lamp. On the example of photolysis of terephthalic acid (TPA), various parameters were calculated that allow quantitative comparison of UV sources: radiation efficiency, quantum output of the process, specific energy and operating costs for the destruction of the target pollutant.
