Oxidative decomposition and Chemical reaction of oil-containing Wastewater

Most vegetable fats (oils and fats) used in food factories and kitchens are unsaturated fatty acids.

On the other hand, sodium hypochlorite water dripped with sodium hypochlorite is catalyzed by Mecacera,

　　　NaCℓO + H₂O → NaOH + HCℓO
(Sodium hypochlorite) (Water) (Caustic soda) (Hypochlorous acid)

The reaction proceeds further to

HCℓO → HCℓ + [O] (hypochlorous acid)
(hypochlorous acid) (hydrochloric acid) (oxygen in its developmental stage = strong oxidizing agent)

The [O] (oxygen in its developmental stage) that is produced here acts as a strong oxidizing agent.

By the way, fats and oils (unsaturated fats) are hydrolyzed by oxidation, etc;

Hydrolysis CH₂OH

Unsaturated fat -----→ CnH₂n+1 COOH (fatty acid) + CH₂OH (glycerol)
CH₂OH

Decompose into fatty acids and glycerin.
*The above reaction occurs even when “solid chlorine” is used.

Glycerin is a typical trivalent alcohol, which is soluble in water.

Fatty acids are insoluble in water as they are, but the [O] (oxygen in the developmental stage) produced in the catalytic reaction of Mecacera has a strong oxidizing effect, and most of the fatty acids are converted to propionaldehyde (C₂H₅CHO) in the initial stage.

Propionic acid and propionaldehyde are water soluble chemicals.
Further, through repeated oxidation reactions, propionic acid and propionaldehyde are converted to acetic acid (CH₃COOH) or acetaldehyde (CH₃CHO), which in turn are converted to CO₂ (carbon dioxide gas) and H₂O (water).

Under normal conditions, fat and water are incompatible and exist separately, but when they react with the above “MECHACELA WATER”, they become soluble in water, decompose fat (oil and fat), and cease to exist as scum.
