There is a growing concern about contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) found in the environment. These CECs include pharmaceuticals, personal care products and illicit drugs that are often not easily removed using conventional treatment technologies. Aclarus has developed a low-cost, low energy ozonation system that may be applied to the treatment of wastewater. The objective of this thesis was to test the potential of the ozonation used as a disinfection technology, to remove CECs and reduce toxicity. The evaluation was performed using the Aclarus AOWWT-10 pilot ozonation unit applied to the secondary effluent at the wastewater treatment plant in Peterborough, Ontario. The unit was operated in parallel to a full-scale ultraviolet (UV) d...
