“…Phenols pose a significant threat to the environment and are mainly found as dilute contaminants in ground water as well as in surface water [17][18][19][20]. Phenolic compounds are toxic to aquatic life and have the ability to impart tastes and odours to drinking water even at parts per billion levels [21].…”

Titania pillared zirconium phosphate (ZrP) and titanium phosphate (TiP) were prepared by intercalating Ti (IV) isopropoxide sol in the interlayers of the mono sodium form of the corresponding metal phosphate. The sol-intercalated samples were activated at various temperatures and characterized by XRD, UV-vis DRS, FTIR, BET-surface area, BJH-pore size distribution and acid sites measurement. Basal spacing and surface area analyses revealed that highest amount of pillaring has taken place with 2 and 4 wt.% titania loading for ZrP and TiP, respectively. The photocatalytic degradation of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), phenol, methylene blue (MB) and hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) was studied in aqueous solution over the neat as well as pillared materials under solar irradiation. Catalytic activity tests revealed that hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) were completely degraded under acidic conditions, whereas, the same was observed in almost neutral conditions for phenol and methylene blue (MB) over 0.6 g/L of catalyst.

Transformer oil contaminated with 74 ppm of PCBs was decomposed by an electron accelerator of 1.5 MeV energy, 50 mA beam current, and 75 kW power. Sample oil contaminated with PCBs was obtained from the transformer commercially used for more than 30 years and stocked in an electric power company in Korea for treatment. Irradiation was carried out at normal temperature and pressure without any pre-treatment and any additives. Physical and electrical properties were maintained after irradiation. It seems to be clear that the concentration of the PCBs decreased with increasing dose of irradiation. No peak of PCBs was observed at the dose of 200 kGy. Electron beam degradation of PCBs can be a useful tool for treatment of the PCBs contaminated transformer oil.
