Ibuprofen (IBU), which is in the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAI) group, is frequently detected in wastewater and even drinking water. Conventional wastewater treatment plants were not designed for the removal of these drug residues. For this reason, these micropollutants, which cannot be treated in wastewater treatment plants, are discharged to the receiving environment and cause negative effects there. Recently, advanced oxidation processes have been frequently used for the removal of such micropollutants. In this study, life cycle assessment (LCA) of two different advanced oxidation processes was carried out to determine the environmental effects of ibuprofen removal. CML 2 baseline method of SimaPro 8.0.2 software was used in the study. At the end of the study, the environmental impact of the UV/H2O2 process was found to be higher. It has been determined that the most important parameter that causes environmental impact is electrical energy consumption.

Ibuprofenin ileri oksidasyon prosesleri ile gideriminin yaşam döngüsü değerlendirmesi

Öz

Steroid olmayan anti-inflamatuvar (NSAI) grubunda yer alan ibuprofen (IBU), atıksularda ve hatta içme sularında sıklıkla tespit edilmektedir. Klasik atıksu arıtma tesisleri bu ilaç kalıntılarının giderimi üzerine projelendirilmemiştir. Bu nedenle atıksu arıtma tesislerinde arıtılamayan bu mikrokirleticiler alıcı ortamlara deşaj edilmekte ve burada olumsuz etkilere neden olmaktadır. Son zamanlarda ileri oksidasyon prosesleri bu tarz mikrokirleticilerin gideriminde sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada da ibuprofen gideriminin çevresel etkilerini belirlemek amacıyla iki farklı ileri oksidasyon prosesinin yaşam döngüsü değerlendirmesi (YDD) yapılmıştır. Çalışmada SimaPro 8.0.2 yazılımının CML 2 baseline metodu kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonunda UV/H2O2 prosesinin çevresel etkisi daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Çevresel etkiye sebep olan en önemli parametre olarak ise elektrik enerjisi tüketimi olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
