Question
A stream of ozone-enriched air (3% ozone by volume) is bubbled into a reactor as part of a disinfection strategy. Water entering the reactor is free of ozone. KH = 0.011 M/atm and KLa = 18 h-1 for ozone in this system.
 
Ozone (O3) dissolved in water is unstable. The kinetics of decomposition are complex, but the rate can be approximated as first-order with respect to dissolved ozone. The first-order rate coefficient is pH-dependent and, at pH 8.0 and 25 C, is 12 h-1 in the system of interest.
