Resumen:
A comprehensive kinetic model for the photooxidation of oxalic acid (C2O4H4) in a fluidized bed (FB) of a TiO2/quartz sand composite, in a UV-fully illuminated photoreactor, was developed and correlated with experimental results. A proper solution for the mass balance of the reacting system was achieved by combining the complete radiation field profile and the most recent and updated path way for the adsorption and photodecomposition of oxalic acid ontoTiO2 (Mendiveetal.,2007), which was employed to determine the kinetic expression and model parameters.
