Synopsis

Wastewater discharged from petrochemical sectors needs further treatment since the processes used remain insufficient to attend the required purification, this study aims to show the difference between wastewater recovered from a petrochemical center and a synthetic prepared solution of toluene in water, using solar rays in order to decrease hydrocarbons concentration in water. The results of the solar degradation of toluene content in synthetic solution showed a chemical oxygen demand (COD) reduction rate of 77.97% after 4 hours of treatment, while the reduction rate of the COD of wastewater treatment has reached 35.51%
