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...

One of the biggest problems world is currently experiencing wastewater treatment. Numerous pollutants are released into water bodies by enormous amounts effluents from varied sources. This paper provides a concise summary state art in AOPs, biological treatment, and their efficient application for degradation numerous recalcitrant organic contaminants found wastewater. The employment photoreact...

The processing on water treatment in this research is carried out by using two combination methods of Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) and Electromagnetic Water Treatment (EWT). application AOPs method one alternative to remove heavy metals while the EWT improve quality prevent expensive chemicals or corrosive substances. can cause new problems that endanger human health damage environment. ...

Chemical regulation is challenged by the large number of chemicals requiring assessment for potential human health and environmental impacts. Current approaches are too resource intensive in terms of time, money and animal use to evaluate all chemicals under development or already on the market. The need for timely and robust decision making demands that regulatory toxicity testing becomes more...

Conventional processes for water treatment are inefficient for the remediation of wastewaters containing toxic and biorecalcitrant organic pollutants. A large number of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been successfully applied to degrade pollutants present in waters. These methods are based on the generation of a very powerful oxidizing agent such as hydroxyl radical ( • OH) in solutio...

In meeting the need for environmental remediation in wastewater treatment and the development of popular sulfate-radical-based advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs), a series of Co/Fe-based catalysts with confirmed phase structure were prepared through extended soft chemical solution processes followed by atmosphere-dependent calcination. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron micro...

This study examined the impact of UV, ozone (O(3)), advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) including O(3)/UV, H(2)O(2)/UV H(2)O(2)/O(3) in the change of molecular weight distribution (MWD) and disinfection by-product formation potential (DBPFP). Bench-scale experiments were conducted with surface river water and changes in the UV absorbance at 254 nm (UV(254)), total organic carbon (TOC), trihalom...

Abstract The growing contamination of various freshwater resources due to industrial effluent is a serious concern among the scientific community. Several organic compounds are essentially used as chemical intermediate in variety processes. These hazardous chemicals which already considered dangerous global public health and other forms life their high toxicity, carcinogenicity. contaminants fo...

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...
