This review is a follow-up to previous published in Journal of Marine Science and Engineeringon the issues accumulation, transport, effects microplastics (MPs) oceans. The brings together experimental laboratory, mathematical, field data on dual role MPs as accumulators hydrophobic persistent organic compounds (POPs), their release-effect marine ecosystem. It also examines carrier role, besides...

In recent years, due to the abuse of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), many refractory trace organic compounds (TrOCs) have been transferred into natural water bodies, posing significant challenges environment. On other hand, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are cleaner more efficient than traditional biochemical degradation processes. Among them, combined ozone/persulfate ...
