In the present work, the degradation of three estrogens (17β-estradiol (E2), estrone (E1) and
17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2)) was investigated under photoactivation of hydrogen peroxide …

In the present work we investigate the activation efficiency of H 2 O 2 and S 2 O 8 2− using
UVA and UVB radiation. Bisphenol-A (BPA) is used as model pollutants to estimate the …

In this study, UV based treatments were implemented at pilot scale to assess their ability to
remove hormones from treated wastewater, especially with the view to equip small and …

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effectiveness of sulphate radical based
homogeneous advanced oxidation technologies (SR-AOTs) involving peroxymonosulphate …

The female sexual hormone, 17β-estradiol (E2), was chosen as a model emerging
contaminant to study its degradation kinetics using UV-activated persulfate (UV/PS). Our …

UV/H2O2, which is an advanced treatment technology used to reduce multiple
contaminants, is effective in potable water treatment. Simultaneous degradation effects and …

The discharge of synthetic and natural steroid estrogens from municipal wastewaters to the
aquatic environment has received increased attention because of their potential …

Extensive use of endocrine disruptor compounds (EDCs) and their release through various
pathways into the environment are emerging environmental concerns. In this context, H 2 O …

Due to rising concern regarding the presence of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in
surface water and groundwater throughout the United States, Asia and Europe, treatment of …

The degradation of three endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), bisphenol A, ethinyl
estradiol, and estradiol, was investigated via ultraviolet (UV) radiation photolysis and the …
