Abstract Sulfate radical AOPs (SR-AOP) were successfully utilized in degradation of
antibiotics in water and wastewater treatment. The review discusses details on SR-AOPs …

Antibiotic residues are ubiquitous in wastewater, surface water, and groundwater worldwide
with concentrations ranging from< 1 ng/L to hundreds μg/L, which pose ecological risks to …

Environmental-friendly and low-cost catalysts for peracetic acid (PAA) activation are vital to
promote their application for micropollutant degradation in water. In this study, powdered …

Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is a high-priority pharmaceutical that is widely used as an antibiotic
and fungicide. It can be partially metabolized by animal and human bodies, hence a large …

Earth abundant transition metal-based materials are widely served as peroxymonosulfate
(PMS) activators for degradation of emerging contaminants. However, the agglomeration of …

The biochar is a solid carbon-rich, porous material produced by the thermochemical
conversion of a diverse range of biomass feedstocks under an inert atmosphere (ie, in the …

Despite the vital roles of reactive radical species in the coupled iron–carbon
composite/persulfate (PS) system for eliminating pollutants, nonradical contributions are …

With rising concerns in the practical application of biochar for the remediation of
environment influenced by various organic contaminants, a critical review to facilitate …
