A Suntest solar simulator with arc xenon lamp was used to irradiate pure linear alkylbenzene sulfonates (LAS) standard and some commercial LAS solutions. The ozonation treatment was carried out in a pilot plant air-lift type reactor. Kinetic degradation curves were obtained showing an apparent first order reaction in both cases. Extraction and preconcentration of samples was carried out by off-line SPE using polymeric an RP-18 cartridges with recoveries varying from 77 to 93% for the LAS compounds. For LC chromatographic elution of LAS and degradation products an ion pair based on 5mM triethylamine and 5nM acetic acid had to the acetonitrile-water or methanol-water mobile phases. Fluorescence detection was achieved at 225 and 295nm as excitation and emission radiation wavelength, respectively. Degradation by products were identified by liquid chromatography electrospray mass spectrometry detection (LC-ESI-MS). Ion chromatography (IC) was used to analyze refractory species such as oxalate, formate and acetate ions which were present in the treated solution even after 3h of ozone treatment. The LAS mixture was almost totally degraded in less than 20min using O(3)/H(2)O(2), the reaction being faster than in the case of catalyzed photodecomposition. TOC removal reached 84% after 3h of ozonation process.

Kinetic solvent effects on hydrogen abstractions involving C-H donors (dienes, ethers, alkylbenzenes) have been corroborated by experiment and theory (UB3LYP/6-311++G**, polarized continuum model). To single out the effect of solvent polarity, rate constants for scavenging of the cumyloxyl radical and fluorescence quenching of 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-ene were obtained in binary aprotic mixtures of ethylacetate and acetonitrile. Polar solvents result in a selective stabilization of the reactants (see TOC graphic), which results in slower rate constants.
