This report presents a cost analysis of Hydrogen Peroxide production from hydrogen. The process examined is a conventional anthraquinone auto-oxidation (AO) process. In this process, 2-ethyl anthraquinone is sequentially hydrogenated and oxidized generating Hydrogen Peroxide. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) "Hydrogen Peroxyde", Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 7th edition (2) "Hydrogen Peroxyde", McKetta, J., Inorganic Chemicals Handbook. Vol. 2 (3) US Patent 7238335, issued to Degussa in 2007(assigned to Evonik Degussa in 2010) Keywords: H2O2, AO Process, Riedl-Pfleiderer, EAQ, Evonik, Degussa, BASF, Dow, Solvay, Alkyanthraquinone
This report presents a cost analysis of Sulfuric Acid production via tail gas purification. The process examined is a tail gas purification using hydrogen peroxide abatement, similar to Haldor Topsoe process. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Sulphuric Acid, Sulphur, Oleum, Fuming Sulfuric Acid, Tail Gas, Hydrogen Peroxide, Abatement, Lurgi, Peracidox
Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) rely on the efficient generation of reactive radical species and are increasingly attractive options for water remediation from a wide variety of organic micropollutants of human health and/or environmental concern. Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water Treatment covers the key advanced oxidation processes developed for chemical contaminant destruction in polluted water sources, some of which have been implemented successfully at water treatment plants around the world. The book is structured in two sections; the first part is dedicated to the most relevant AOPs, whereas the topics covered in the second section include the photochemistry of chemical contaminants in the aquatic environment, advanced water treatment for water reuse, implementation of advanced treatment processes for drinking water production at a state-of-the art water treatment plant in Europe, advanced treatment of municipal and industrial wastewater, and green technologies for water remediation. The advanced oxidation processes discussed in the book cover the following aspects: - Process principles including the most recent scientific findings and interpretation. - Classes of compounds suitable to AOP treatment and examples of reaction mechanisms. - Chemical and photochemical degradation kinetics and modelling. - Water quality impact on process performance and practical considerations on process parameter selection criteria. - Process limitations and byproduct formation and strategies to mitigate any potential adverse effects on the treated water quality. - AOP equipment design and economics considerations. - Research studies and outcomes. - Case studies relevant to process implementation to water treatment. - Commercial applications. - Future research needs. Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water Treatment presents the most recent scientific and technological achievements in process understanding and implementation, and addresses to anyone interested in water remediation, including water industry professionals, consulting engineers, regulators, academics, students.

This book describes nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) functions in higher plants. Much progress has been made in the field of NO and H2O2 research regarding the various mechanisms and functions of these two molecules, particularly regarding stress tolerance and signaling processes, but there are still gaps to be filled. NO and H2O2 are both crucial regulators of development, and act as signaling molecules at each step of the plant lifecycle, while also playing important roles in biotic and abiotic responses to environmental cues. The book summarizes key advances in the field of NO and H2O2 research, focusing on a range of processes including: signaling, metabolism, seed germination, development, sexual reproduction, fruit ripening, and defense.
