Abstract
Phenol can be one of the main toxic pollutants in wastewater streams from the petroleum industry and other industries such as coal processing, textiles, pharmaceuticals, plastics, wood production, and paint which can be difficult to decompose and can resist to biodegradation. Direct biological treatment cannot be feasible for wastewaters with higher concentration of phenol. Therefore, it is necessary to find an efficient treatment technique to degrade phenol in wastewaters to comply with standards.
In this chapter, historical background, fundamentals, classification, reactor designs, industrial applications, and commercialization of supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) technology are reviewed. In addition, reaction pathways and kinetics for phenol oxidation in supercritical water and non-catalytic and catalytic SCWO of phenol in the petroleum industry and other wastewaters are discussed.
