For fifty years, heterogeneous photocatalysis has been considered as having potential to
remove organic and microbiological pollutants from water under either artificial UV light or …

Polyphenols commonly exist in agro-industrial wastewaters, such as soft drink wastewater,
cork wastewater, oil mill wastewater, landfill leachate, pulp mill wastewater, winery …

The approach of this timely review considers the current literature that is focused on the
interface nanostructure/cell-wall microorganism to understand the annihilation mechanism …

The photo-Fenton process is an advanced oxidation process that uses the hydroxyl radical
to disinfect and decontaminate water. Its non-selectivity makes it ideal for the removal of a …

The present manuscript is a conceptual review concerning the photo-Fenton reaction at near-
neutral pH, used for bacterial inactivation. In this first Part, an overview of the mechanisms …

In this study, we reported an effective visible light-assisted photocatalytic disinfection toward
various representative pathogenic bacteria over a highly reusable glue-immobilized P/Ag/Ag …

Photocatalytic disinfection practices have been applied for decades and attract current
interest along with the developments in synthesis of novel photocatalysts. A survey based …

The review explores the feasibility of simultaneous removal of pathogens and chemical
pollutants by solar-enhanced advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). The AOPs are based …

Photocatalytic and photolytic disinfection of Escherichia coli in water was studied under
natural sunlight using different types of photocatalyst (TiO 2 P-25, PC500, Ruana and Bi 2 …

Water resources contamination has a worldwide impact and is a cause of global concern.
The need for provision of clean water is becoming more and more demanding …
