Embodiment approach

[0184] According to one or more exemplary embodiments, the present invention is directed to methods of treating an aqueous solution containing one or more contaminants to remove or reduce the amount of the contaminants. According to various embodiments, the method includes providing an aqueous solution comprising at least one pollutant selected from the group consisting of organisms, organic chemicals, inorganic chemicals, and combinations thereof, and exposing the aqueous solution to photoelectrocatalytic oxidation.

[0185] According to one embodiment of the application of the device, the device uses photoelectrocatalysis as a treatment method for hydraulic fracturing fluids. While this disclosure is typically described as reducing or removing contaminants in hydraulic fracturing fluids, those skilled in the art will understand that other contaminants can be equally achievable through the use of devices such as photoelectrocatalytic oxidation or PECO devices. photocatalysis....

Abstract

The present disclosure is generally directed to devices and methods of treating aqueous solutions to help remove or otherwise reduce levels, concentrations or amounts of one or more contaminants. The present disclosure relates to a apparatus including a substantially self-contained housing or container which is adapted to receive components including at least one counterelectrode (e.g. cathode) and at least one photoelectrode (e.g. anode) provided or arranged around at least one UV light source, and / or receive, contain and / or circulate fluid or aqueous solution.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 566,490, filed December 2, 2011, U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 584,012, filed January 6, 2012, and Priority and benefit of US Nonprovisional Patent Application filed with Application No. 13 / 689,089, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] Aqueous solutions typically contain one or more contaminants. The aqueous solution includes but is not limited to hydraulic fracturing fluid, hydraulic fracturing return water, high salinity solution, groundwater, seawater, waste water, drinking water, aquaculture (such as: aquarium water and aquaculture water), ballast water, and Dye wastewater from the textile industry. More information on example aqueous solutions is provided below. [0004] Hydraulic fracturing fluid includes any liquid or solution used to stimulate or produce natural gas or oi...
