pubmed:abstractText |
Microbial decontamination of water was carried out using a novel radical generating system consisting of ion exchange resin, copper and hydrogen peroxide. The system was successful in reducing the microbial load in water by more than 99% in 15 min and is effective against all the microorganisms tested. The method was also successful in decontaminating the flood water obtained from Industrial Canal and 17th Street Canal in New Orleans. Decontamination is due to the formation of hydroxyl radicals, formed during the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by the metal-polymer complex.
