Zusammenfassung:The decomposition of 2-nitrophenol in aqueous solutions by ozone and UV/ozone processes was found to be technically feasible under adequate experimental conditions. Formation of nitrate ions was observed following the decomposition of 2-nitrophenol by ozone and UV/ ozone processes. Increasing ozone dosage and UV light intensity accelerated the decomposition rate of 2-nitrophenol in an aqueous solution. The species distribution of 2-nitrophenol under various solution conditions plays a significant role in determining decomposition behavior. In most experiments conducted in this study, the decomposition of 2-nitrophenol by ozone and UV/ozone processes was favored to occur in alkaline conditions. The addition of 2-butanol accelerated the rate of gaseous ozone transfer to an aqueous phase by reducing the surface tension of aqueous solution and therefore enhancing the decomposition rate of 2-nitrophenol by ozone and UV/ozone processes
