With the development of industrial society, organic wastewater produced by industrial
manufacturing has caused many environmental problems. The vast majority of organic …

Oxygen vacancies (OVs) play a crucial role in the catalytic activity of metal-based catalysts;
however, their activation mechanism toward peroxydisulfate (PDS) still lacks reasonable …

In recent decades, a growing number of refractory organic pollutants with serious health
risks are frequently detected in aquatic environment. Sulfate radical (SO 4 radical dot−) …

Sulfate radicals are well-known for their strong oxidation potential (2.60 V), their high
reaction rate (106–109 M/s) and longer life span (t 1/2= 30–40 μs). Owing to the revealed …

Sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been received increasing
attention in recent years due to their high capability and adaptability for the degradation of …

In this paper, the degradation of tetracycline (TC) by peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activated
with zero-valent iron (Fe 0) was systematically studied through batches of experiments. First …

Persulfate decontamination technologies either utilizing radical driven processes or direct
electron transfer are very powerful tools for the treatment of a broad range of impurities …

Persulphate advanced oxidation processes (PS-AOPs) constitute an important development
in the field of wastewater treatment and subsurface contamination remediation within the last …

When applied for the remediation of polluted water/soil, peroxydisulfate (PDS) usually needs
to be effectively activated to generate sulfate radical as the working oxidant. However, a …
