Novel advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) show great promise for application in many wastewater treatment areas. AOPs are an emerging technology that may be employed for specific goals in wastewater treatment. These AOPs utilize the very strong oxidizing power of hydroxyl radicals to oxidize organic compounds to the preferred end products of carbon dioxide and water. Advanced oxidation has been...

This study was aimed at investigating the photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) antibiotic in aqueous solution using immobilized ZnO nanoparticles on glass plate. X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy were applied to characterize the nanoparticles. To do so, the ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized through the chemical precipitation method and we...

In this study, the degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) in wastewater was investigated using UV-based sulfate radical advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOP) and reduction (ARP). More specifically, a comparison persulfate process (the UV/PS process) sulfite UV/sulfite made. Considering SR-AOPs, much more efficient than peroxymonosulfate UV/PMS process), with pseudo first order reaction rate constan...

nitrate is one of the pollutants of groundwater and the great amount of nitrate in drinking water can bring about some hygienic problems such as methemoglobinema phenomena in children. therefore, this research aims to study the efficiency of photo- fenton in removing nitrate and investigating the variables affecting it in aqueous solutions. this research was carried out in water and wastewater ...
