The number of studies dealing with tertiary ozonation to remove trace organic contaminants (TrOCs) in effluents originating from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is increasing due to the need for upgrading the WWTPs overall performance. To follow-up TrOCs removal in real-time during ozone-based treatment, online surrogate measurements are necessary, of which mainly spectroscopic surrogates (i.e. UV–VIS absorbance and fluorescence) are the emerging techniques in literature. This paper summarizes and reflects on the state-of-the-art as retrieved from more than 100 peer-reviewed studies published between January 2007 and December 2020 and dealing with (1) surrogate correlation models for the prediction of TrOCs removal in secondary effluent and (2) control strategies to adjust the ozone dose during (full-scale) operation. Next to the flow and load proportional ozone dosing strategies, controlling the ozone dose solely based on the characteristics of the effluent entering the ozonation unit, also a differential control strategy based on the change in characteristics due to ozonation of the WWTP effluent is highlighted. The latter seems the best option as flow and load proportional ozone dosing do not consider the amount and/or reactivity of the matrix constituents. The presence of organic and inorganic scavengers of ozone and radicals in the effluent matrix has a significant impact on the TrOCs removal efficiency. This effluent quality can differ in time and between WWTPs, hence the surrogate correlation models should be widely applicable. At the end of the review, recommendations are made for future research and implementation of an effective control strategy for (full-scale) applications.
