How Bromate and Ozone Concentrations can be Modelled at Full Scale based on Lab-Scale Experiments - A Case Study
Résumé
This article presents a full-scale modelling study of an industrial ozonation unit for practical application. The modelling framework combines an integrated hydraulic model (systematic network) with a quasi-mechanistic chemical model. Dealing with natural water, the chemical model has to be parameterised, and the parameters calibrated. This was done based on labscale experiments. The calibration results showed that the chemical model is able to account for changes in contact time with ozone, pH, temperature, ozone dose, NOM concentration, bromide concentration. Comparison of Residence Time Distributions showed that the hydraulic model accurately reproduces flow conditions. Six sampling points were installed along an industrial ozonation unit of 487 m3 consisting of two baffled tanks in series. Bromate and ozone concentrations were monitored under varying operational process conditions. After the selection of a value for the kLa, simulations were run. Using the lab-scale calibrated models, simulated and experimental data were found in close agreement: 84% of the simulated concentrations for ozone matched measurements (± experimental error), 60 % for bromate. A readjustment of the kinetics of a single reaction (out of 65) showed that seasonal changes in NOM activity may easily be taken into account based on regular concentration measurements (90% of the bromate concentrations were then modelled accurately).
