Combination of electro-Fenton (EF) process with other advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) is found very much effective for water and wastewater treatment. The combined including sono-EF (SEF), photo-EF (PEF), electro-peroxone, ferrate-EF EF persulfate allow enhancing the mineralization efficiency treatment as well reducing operational cost toxicity treated wastewater. Even though, there are sev...

The blooming of the world’s human population and transition diet into a more westernized, high-protein has accelerated production slaughterhouse wastewater (SWW) as number meat processing plants (MPP) increased in past few decades. Conventional treatment processes (CTP) used treating SWW, such anaerobic processes, membrane electrocoagulation, have significant limitations, low efficiency, tenden...

The treatment by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) of waters contaminated by organic pollutants and containing also innocuous bromide ions may generate bromate ions as a co-product. In the present work heterogeneous photocatalysis and ozonation have individually been applied and in combination (integrated process) to degrade the organic compounds in water containing also bromide anions. The r...

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on oxidants have attracted attention for the degradation of organic pollutants. The combination chalcopyrite with such as persulfate, peroxide, percarbonate, and others shows promise a system due to its ability activate through various pathways, leading formation numerous radical non-radical species. In this review, generation sulfate (SR) hydroxyl (HR)...

Currently, the presence of emerging contaminants in water sources has raised concerns worldwide due to low rates mineralization, and some cases, zero levels degradation through conventional treatment methods. For these reasons, researchers field are focused on use advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) as a powerful tool for persistent pollutants. These AOPs based mainly in-situ production hydroxy...

The compound 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) is known to be a highly toxic having harmful effects on human health and the environment. To date, removal of 4-CP by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) has attracted tremendous attentions. persulfate-based AOPs show higher oxidation, better selectivity, wider pH range, no secondary pollution compared traditional Fenton-based AOPs. Carbon materials with low c...

Ofloxacin is a highly efficient and widely used antibiotic drug. It classified as refractory pollutant due to its poor biodegradability. Consequently, it commonly found in water sources, requiring methods for removal. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) offer alternatives since those yield complete degradation not achieved adsorption or membrane processes. Previous studies suggest ofloxacin fol...
