" PROCESSO PER LA DEGRADAZIONE DEI CONTAMINANTI CHIMICI E BIOLOGICI NELLE ACQUE MEDIANTE ELETTROCATALISI DEL BIOSSIDO DI TITANIO " "PROCESS FOR THE DEGRADATION OF CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL CONTAMINANTS IN WATERS BY ELECTROCATALYSIS OF TITANIUM DIOXIDE"

Descrizione dell'invenzione : Description of the invention:

La presente invenzione si riferisce ad un processo di degradazione di molecole organiche e di specie batteriche presenti nelle acque . The present invention refers to a degradation process of organic molecules and bacterial species present in water.

Il processo à ̈ basato sull'utilizzo del forte campo elettrico in corrispondenza della Zona di contatto tra le spazzole in grafite e il collettore in rame di una dinamo. Considerando lo spazio tra le asperità del contatto elettrico dell'elettrodo in grafite e del collettore in rame , dell'ordine dei micron, il campo elettrico generato in tale spazio à ̈ estremamente alto dell'ordine dei KV/m. Tale campo elettrico di forte intensità à ̈ sufficiente ad eccitare gli elettroni del biossido di titanio mescolato in acqua sottoforma di polvere micrometrica . The process is based on the use of the strong electric field in correspondence of the contact zone between the graphite brushes and the copper collector of a dynamo. Considering the space between the asperities of the electrical contact of the graphite electrode and the copper collector, of the order of microns, the electric field generated in this space is extremely high in the order of KV / m. This strong electric field is sufficient to excite the electrons of the titanium dioxide mixed in water in the form of micrometric powder.

In sostanza abbiamo una certa quantità di acqua contaminata con molecole organiche in un contenitore; a tale volume d'acqua viene mescolato una certa quantità di polvere di biossido di titanio ( 200-300 mg/litro di T1O2). La parte del rotore di una dinamo, relativa all'elettrodo in grafite e al collettore in rame à ̈ immersa in tale volume d'acqua .11 rotore della dinamo à ̈ messo in rotazione . Basically we have a certain amount of water contaminated with organic molecules in a container; a certain amount of titanium dioxide powder (200-300 mg / liter of T1O2) is mixed with this volume of water. The part of the rotor of a dynamo, relative to the graphite electrode and the copper collector, is immersed in this volume of water. The dynamo's rotor is set in rotation.

Π campo elettrico che si genera tra l'elettrodo in grafite e il collettore eccita gli elettroni dei biossido di titanio portandoli dalla banda di valenza a quella Πelectric field that is generated between the graphite electrode and the collector excites the electrons of the titanium dioxide, bringing them from the valence band to the

di conduzione . Infatti come à ̈ noto, il biossido di titanio ha un comportamento da semiconduttore con energia di gap di 3,2 eV .Una volta eccitato il biossido di titanio possono innescarsi delle reazioni di ossido riduzione ,come riportato dalla letteratura scientifica ,che portano alla frantumazione delle molecole organiche presenti in acqua, e all'adsorbimento dei frammenti di tali molecole sul particolato micrometrico dello stesso biossido di titanio che precipita, depurando l'acqua. In definitiva il processo richiama la fotocatalisi in cui, come noto, à ̈ la luce di opportuna frequenza che eccita gli elettroni del TÃŒ02, producendo successivamente reazioni redox . Nel caso specifico à ̈ il campo elettrico che promuove gli elettroni del T1O2 dalla banda di valenza a quella di conduzione . of conduction. In fact, as is well known, titanium dioxide has a semiconductor behavior with a gap energy of 3.2 eV. Once titanium dioxide is excited, redox reactions can be triggered, as reported by the scientific literature, which lead to crushing. of the organic molecules present in water, and to the adsorption of the fragments of these molecules on the micrometric particulate of the titanium dioxide itself that precipitates, purifying the water. Ultimately the process recalls the photocatalysis in which, as known, it is the light of a suitable frequency that excites the electrons of TÃŒ02, subsequently producing redox reactions. In the specific case it is the electric field that promotes the T1O2 electrons from the valence band to the conduction band.

Tale campo elettrico eccita gli elettroni delle molecole del biossido di titanio che si trovano in acqua sottoforma di polvere micrometrica in sospensione . This electric field excites the electrons of the titanium dioxide molecules found in water in the form of micrometric powder in suspension.

Secondo lostesso processo fisico abbiamo l'effetto di demolizione di specie batteriche presenti in acqua come à ̈ stato verificato sperimentalmente. La procedura à ̈ esattamente la stessa di quella descritta poc'anzi. Nel contenitore del reattore à ̈ presente dell'acqua contaminata con specie batteriche come : coliformi ,escherichia coli, enterococchi, pseudomonas Aeruginosa. According to the same physical process we have the demolition effect of bacterial species present in water as has been experimentally verified. The procedure is exactly the same as that described above. In the reactor container there is water contaminated with bacterial species such as: coliforms, Escherichia coli, enterococci, pseudomonas Aeruginosa.

A tale acqua contaminata da tali specie batteriche viene aggiunta della polvere di biossido di titanio ,200-300 mg/litro . Dopo un certo tempo di trattamento le specie batteriche presenti in acqua risultano demolite completamente, come le analisi microbiologiche hanno ampiamente dimostrato. Titanium dioxide powder, 200-300 mg / liter, is added to this water contaminated by these bacterial species. After a certain time of treatment, the bacterial species present in the water are completely demolished, as the microbiological analyzes have amply demonstrated.

In definitiva il sistema che intendiamo brevettare secondo la sopradescritta procedura fisica, si presta per la demolizione chimica e biologica. Per quanta riguarda la demolizione chimica di molecole organiche presenti in acqua si richiama il tipo di molecole a cui ci si riferisce : coloranti azoici utilizzati nell'industria tessile; molecole antibiotiche tipo Sulfamethoxazole utilizzate nell'industria farmaceutica, fitofarmaci come Atrazina. Inoltre con la stessa procedura vengono demolite molecole di idrocarburi alifatici come quelle degli oli minerali. Per quanto riguarda la demolizione biologica di specie batteriche come : coliformi, escherichia coli, enterococchi,pseudomonas Aeruginosa, presenti nelle acque, il processo fisico di demolizione di tali specie batteriche richiamate, Ã ̈ lo stesso di quello chimico. Ultimately, the system we intend to patent according to the physical procedure described above is suitable for chemical and biological demolition. As far as the chemical demolition of organic molecules present in water is concerned, the type of molecules referred to is recalled: azo dyes used in the textile industry; Sulfamethoxazole type antibiotic molecules used in the pharmaceutical industry, pesticides such as Atrazine. Furthermore, with the same procedure, molecules of aliphatic hydrocarbons such as those of mineral oils are demolished. As regards the biological demolition of bacterial species such as: coliforms, Escherichia coli, enterococci, pseudomonas Aeruginosa, present in the waters, the physical process of demolition of these recalled bacterial species is the same as the chemical one.

Per quanto riguarda il particolato di biossido di titanio sottoforma di polvere da aggiungere all'acqua contaminata che funge da catalizzatore, si fa notare come à ̈ stato riscontrato, che il più efficace à ̈ L'Alderich con 325 mesh. Infatti in presenza di tale particolato in sospensione acquosa , in seguito al trattamento descritto, sì à ̈ riscontrato che la degradazione avviene più rapidamente e il particolato di biossido di titanio aggrega a se i frammenti delle molecole organiche degradate per azione del campo elettrico e precipita per effetto della gravità. As for the titanium dioxide particulate in the form of powder to be added to the contaminated water that acts as a catalyst, it should be noted that it has been found that the most effective is L'Alderich with 325 mesh. In fact, in the presence of this particulate in aqueous suspension, following the described treatment, it was found that the degradation occurs more rapidly and the titanium dioxide particulate aggregates to itself the fragments of the organic molecules degraded by the action of the electric field and precipitates due to gravity.

Il particolato di TÌO2 non si sgretola in frammenti più piccoli ma al contrario TÌO2 particulate matter does not crumble into smaller fragments but on the contrary

si macro-aggrega diventando più pesante e rendendo più facile la sua precipitazione. it macro-aggregates becoming heavier and making its precipitation easier.

Il Disegno 1 mostra lo schema di principio del reattore degradatore . La regione attiva à ̈ quella in corrispondenza degli elettrodi in grafite e del collettore in rame. Infatti il livello dell'acqua contaminata con molecole organiche o specie batteriche ricopre solo quella zona. E' evidente che il rotore messo in rotazione utilizzando la più conveniente forma di energia , mescola continuamente l'acqua contenente l'aggiunta polvere di biossido di titanio. La concentrazione del biossido di titanio in acqua à ̈ di 200 -300 milligrammi /litro. Il contenitore possiede una particolare geometria che consente più agevolmente alla miscela acqua e T1O2 di circolare preferibilmente in prossimità della regione attiva .Sono state trattate come detto ,con tale sistema numerose soluzioni di coloranti azoici (50 mg/L di Reactive blue, , Procion red mk58, Acid green 25, Alìzarin red) con 300 mg/L di Ti02in polvere ( Aldrich mesh 325). Inoltre sono state trattate come detto, con lo stesso sistema soluzioni contenenti molecole di uso farmaceutico e fitofarmaceutico . Le soluzioni (1000 mL) erano fatte circolare nello spazio del campo elettrico tra le spazzole in grafite e il collettore in rame, dal movimento dello stesso rotore parzialmente immerso in esse. Dopo 30 minuti di trattamento le soluzioni risultavano completamente decolorate e l'analisi allo spettrofotometro confermava l'abbattimento dei coloranti per oltre il 90%. Analoghe prove sono state fatte per l'atrazina e il sulfamethoxazole fornendo percentuali di degradazione dell'ordine 80-90 % .Infine à ̈ stata sottoposta allo stesso trattamento 1000 mi di acque contenenti in emulsione oli minerali con COD di 2000, ottenendo una degradazione dopo il trattamento per 30 min. di oltre il 90% . Drawing 1 shows the basic diagram of the degrading reactor. The active region is the one corresponding to the graphite electrodes and the copper collector. In fact, the level of water contaminated with organic molecules or bacterial species covers only that area. It is evident that the rotor, set in rotation using the most convenient form of energy, continuously mixes the water containing the added titanium dioxide powder. The concentration of titanium dioxide in water is 200-300 milligrams / liter. The container has a particular geometry that allows the mixture of water and T1O2 to circulate more easily in the vicinity of the active region. As mentioned, numerous solutions of azo dyes have been treated with this system (50 mg / L of Reactive blue,, Procion red mk58, Acid green 25, Alìzarin red) with 300 mg / L of Ti02 powder (Aldrich mesh 325). Furthermore, solutions containing molecules for pharmaceutical and phytopharmaceutical use were treated with the same system. The solutions (1000 mL) were circulated in the space of the electric field between the graphite brushes and the copper collector, by the movement of the same rotor partially immersed in them. After 30 minutes of treatment the solutions were completely discolored and the spectrophotometer analysis confirmed the reduction of the dyes by over 90%. Similar tests were carried out for atrazine and sulfamethoxazole providing degradation percentages of the order of 80-90%. the treatment for 30 min. by over 90%.
