Combined treatment approaches based on ultrasound for removal of triazophos from wastewater

and Ozone resulted in 48.6% and 54.6% triazophos degradation respectively whereas combination of US and Fenton's reagent resulted in maximum degradation as 92.2% and also resulted in maximum COD removal as 88.5%. The study also focused on identification of intermediate products formed during the degradation as well as establishing the kinetic rate constants and the synergistic index for different approaches. The study has established that cavitation can be effectively used for triazophos degradation with significant intensification benefits based on the use of combination approach.
