Experiments were carried out in a stirred batch tank reactor at the oxygen partial pressure equal to 1 MPa and at temperature ranging from 473 to 523 K. Dairy sewage was subjected to oxidation at a natural pH close to 4. The efficiency of decomposition of organic compounds was estimated on the basis of TOC measurement. The highest TOC reduction rate reached 79.6%. A kinetic model of the process was proposed and its parameters were determined experimentally. Good agreement of the experimental and calculated results was obtained. %K wet oxidation %K dairy sewage %K kinetic model %U http://versita.metapress.com/content/8185661141115377/?p=c2c2e63b9302453989f53707f4f2b4ee&pi=2
