5 Lab. of Applied Photochemistry and Phase Equilibrium Foteq lab. is inserted in the Chemical Eng. Dept. of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. The lab aims to determine experimental data to give support for chemical process design demands. Both photochemical and phase equilibrium engineering are applied for research subjects involving residue treatment and fluid phase behavior in the processing conditions of interest. In applied photochemistry is studied the use of the Advanced Oxidation Processes in the degradation of organics pollutants effluents, soils and solid residues. Two types of photochemical reactors are being applied, i.e., using Solar radiation and UV radiation produced by lamps:

6 Lab. of Applied Photochemistry and Phase Equilibrium Two methods of phase equilibrium are being used, i.e., synthetic and analytical, both at low and high pressures:
