ESCO -Â Advanced Oxidation Systems
ESCO International has, through intensive research and site trials, developed a unique advanced oxidation process, the CATADOX. The CATADOX process combines treatment by ozone, UV, hydrogen peroxide and when required a proprietary solid state catalyst. The CATADOX performs excellently in challenging applications such as micro-pollutant oxidation, non-biodegradable COD removal, enhanced TOC reduction, VOCs abatement, toxicity reduction.
The CATADOX enables the industry to meet the ever-tightening environmental standards for wastewaters and industrial gases. The process offers substantial capital and operating cost savings when compared to conventional processes. The CATADOX is the most reliable and clean process available to meet stringent standards without creating wastes or further treatment.
ESCO International’s advanced oxidation processes offers high-performance destruction of TOC, COD and a wide range of refractory organic compounds in industrial and municipal applications. The processes use optimised combinations of Ozone, UV, H2O2 and a proprietary catalyst.
Our advanced oxidation processes include the following standard Features:
- Multiple ozone, H2O2 injection points
- Optimized ozone, H2O2 dosing
- Very high ozone mass transfer due to high performance ozone injection devices
- variable ozone gas concentration, up to 12%wt
- Optimised oxidation reaction times
- up to three stage oxidation process
- Complete process instrumentation
- Siemens-PLC S7-200 for operation & Text display as human machine interface
- Low power catalytic ozone off-gas destruction

If you are thinking of installing on-site advanced oxidation plant for wastewater reclaim, it is sometimes necessary to carry out pilot studies to ensure that the correct design criteria are used for the full scale plant.
ESCO International recommends that the pilot plant evaluation work is carried out for at least one week.
