Authors

Abstract
This study investigates the application of
nanocatalyst-driven advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for the effective
treatment of wastewater in Jodhpur, focusing on the optimization of operational
parameters and kinetic modeling. Nanocatalysts, characterized by high surface
area and catalytic efficiency, were synthesized and employed to enhance the
degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater samples collected from the
region. Key variables such as catalyst dosage, pH, reaction time, and
temperature were systematically optimized using response surface methodology to
maximize pollutant removal efficiency. Kinetic analyses were conducted to
understand the reaction mechanisms and rate constants, revealing that the
degradation followed pseudo-first-order kinetics under optimized conditions.
The results demonstrated significant improvement in chemical oxygen demand
(COD) and total organic carbon (TOC) removal, indicating the high efficacy of
nanocatalyst-driven AOPs. This approach offers a promising solution for
sustainable wastewater management in arid regions like Jodhpur, addressing
environmental challenges posed by industrial and domestic effluents. The study
provides crucial insights into the design and implementation of
nanocatalyst-based treatment systems, emphasizing their potential for
scalability and environmental compliance.
