Various gas treatment techniques are widely used to prevent the physical and mental health hazards of BTEX in semi-enclosed spaces. Chlorine dioxide (ClO2) is an alternative to chlorine as a secondary disinfectant with a strong oxidation ability, a wide range of action, and no carcinogenic effects. In addition, ClO2 has a unique permeability which allows it to eliminate volatile contaminants from the source. However, little attention has been paid to the removal of BTEX by ClO2, due to the difficulty of removing BTEX in semi-enclosed areas and the lack of testing methods for the reaction intermediates. Therefore, this study explored the performance of ClO2 advanced oxidation technology on both liquid and gaseous benzene, toluene, o-xylene, and m-xylene. The results showed that ClO2 was efficient in the removal of BTEX. The byproducts were detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and the reaction mechanism was speculated using the ab initio molecular orbital calculations method. The results demonstrated that ClO2 could remove the BTEX from the water and the air without causing secondary pollution.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/molecules28114342","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,26]],"date-time":"2023-05-26T02:00:19Z","timestamp":1685066419000},"page":"4342","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Performance and Mechanism of Chlorine Dioxide on BTEX Removal in Liquid and Indoor Air"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"Anlong","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Environment and Safety Engineering, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yina","family":"Qiao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Environment and Safety Engineering, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yufan","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Environment and Safety Engineering, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Riya","family":"Jin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Environment and Safety Engineering, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jiaoqin","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Environment and Safety Engineering, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zengdi","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Environment and Safety Engineering, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mengye","family":"Jia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Environment and Safety Engineering, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jingshuai","family":"Gao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Environment and Safety Engineering, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chengjie","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Environment and Safety Engineering, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"854","article-title":"Evaluation of Indoor Air Pollution during Decorating Process and Inhalation Health Risks in Xi\u2019an, China: A Case Study","volume":"19","author":"Tian","year":"2018","journal-title":"Aerosol Air Qual.
