Abstract
Provided is a method for activating an oxygenase-containing composition, characterized by dissolving or dispersing a composition containing oxygenase in an aqueous medium containing oxygen in an amount that exceeds the saturated dissolved oxygen concentration in an atmospheric environment at normal temperature and normal pressure.
Claims13
A method for activating an oxygenase-containing composition, characterized by dissolving or dispersing a composition containing oxygenase in an aqueous medium containing an amount of oxygen that exceeds the saturated dissolved oxygen concentration in an atmospheric environment at normal temperature and normal pressure.
A method for decomposing or detoxifying a contaminant, comprising:
- stirring a mixture of an oxygenase-containing composition and an oily component containing a contaminant in an aqueous medium containing an amount of oxygen that exceeds the saturated dissolved oxygen concentration.
A contaminant detoxification device, provided with:
- a stirring tank provided with an aeration means, stirring means and/or temperature control means,
- a sample introduction unit that introduces an aqueous medium and/or oily component containing a contaminant, the sample introduction unit being in communication with the stirring tank, and
- a microbubble generation unit that supplies microbubbles to a sample in the stirring tank.
A method for decomposing or detoxifying a contaminant, comprising:
- mixing an oxygenase-containing composition and an oily component containing a contaminant in an aqueous medium containing oxygen in an amount that exceeds the saturated dissolved oxygen concentration, at least a portion of the oxygen being present as microbubbles, and
- aerating and stirring the mixture of the aqueous medium and the oily component.
