Organic contaminants, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and heavy metals have posed long-term threats to the ecosystem human health. Natural minerals aroused widespread interest in field of environmental remediation due their unique characteristics such as rich resources, environmentally benign, excellent photoelectric properties. This review briefly introduced contributions natural sulfide mi...

Electrochemically (EC) assisted persulfate (PS) oxidation processes (EPOPs) have gained increasing attention in recent years. In this review, the current status and prospects of EC/PS degradation organic pollutants are discussed summarized. It was found that most contaminants could be significantly enhanced or accelerated using combination EC PS compared to single treatments. Moreover, effects ...

Currently, sulfate-radical-based advanced oxidation processes are promising candidates to become viable post-treatment for wastewater purification. In this work, a continuous flow UV light/persulfate (PS)/zero-valent iron (ZVI) system has been applied treatment the first time. The influence of certain photo-Fenton-like process parameters, such as space time, PS concentration, and ZVI molar rati...

Catechin, a common ingredient of tea and coffee is a colourless water soluble compound which undergoes spontaneous oxidation by aerial O2, heat and also by UV exposure or ammonium persulfate (APS) treatment resulting in a noticeable change to yellow colouration (λmax = 440 nm). Several α-unsaturated fatty acids (ascorbic, maleic, sorbic but not acrylic), βmercapto ethanol (BME) and native bovin...
