ABSTRACT:
A process and apparatus for removing organic contaminants from a fluid includes providing a fluid containing at least one type of organic pollutant molecules that have the characteristics of reacting generally reluctantly with an oxidizing agent at room temperature. The organic pollutant molecules have an initial substantially stable, non-reacting and unexcited molecular energy level state. The fluid is then exposed to a wave-form light energy source so as to upset the initial molecular energy state to reach a second substantially unstable, reacting and excited molecular energy state of the organic pollutant molecules. The fluid is exposed to an oxidizing agent, while keeping the organic pollutant molecules in the second molecular energy level state, for a time period sufficient to thoroughly oxidize the organic pollutant molecules. The fluid, which is substantially free of the organic pollutant molecules, is then discharged to the atmosphere.
