4. Example of an industrial project
The main industrial applications for oxidation processes that have been and are being developed are: sewage sludge, industrial effluents from chemical and pharmaceutical plants, and compounds from military activities. Various patents and companies market wet oxidation processes, some examples of which are presented here.
