Abstract
The removal of Bisphenol A in river water can be accomplished with the application of ozone. Ozone is widely used to disinfect drinking water due to its strong oxidizing properties. This study was conducted to investigate the removal of Bisphenol A in different areas of Skudai River. Batch experiments were conducted at initial Bisphenol A concentration of 0.5 mg L-1. The concentrations of Bisphenol A and dissolved ozone were measured using Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC) and UV-Visible spectrophotometer respectively. Based on the results obtained the stability of ozone in the water were very fast. Ozonewas quickly decomposed in water samples. The results indicated that the depletion of ozone varied from different dissolved organic carbon (DOC) value of water samples. Concentration of dissolved ozone was reducing rapidly after spiked into high DOC value (9.17 mg L-1) of river water. The results of the study have shown that ozonation could be used to effectively remove the Bisphenol A from water. The ozone depletions in river water at 120 seconds were about 87%-99%.
