Free Radical Chemistry of Advanced Oxidation Process Removal of Nitrosamines in Water

Free Radical Chemistry as the Underpinning for Advanced Oxidation Processes

Advanced Oxidation Process for Haloacetic Acid Removal in Tehranpars Water Treatment Using CuO Nanocatalyst

Potentially harmful disinfection byproducts (DBPs), as a significant challenge in water treatment, are formed when oxidizing disinfectants react with natural organic matters (NOM). Unfortunately, an  unwanted  side  effect  is  the  formation  of  harmful by-products,  such  as  THMs  and  HAAs, following the chlorination stage. DBPs  cause a variety of diseases like cancer in humans.  In this ...

Chemistry of free radical and singlet oxidation of lipids.

The reaction of oxygen with unsaturated lipids produces a wide range of compounds that have attracted considerable interest and research. In foods, lipid oxidation products are responsible for the development of rancidity by the production of low molecular weight fission compounds that impart undesirable flavors. Potentially toxic and harmful cyclic and higher molecular weight materials are for...

UV/ H2O2 Advanced Oxidation Process for Simultaneous Removal of NO and SO2: A Review

This study presents a review on advanced oxidation processes (AOP) for simultaneous removal of NO and SO2. AOP is based on using a strong oxidant such as ozone and H2O2 which is able to generate highly reactive intermediates. The pollutant will be oxidized and removed by these intermediates. In recent years, AOP has been considered as an effective and attractive technology in the field of flue ...

Chemistry of carotenoid oxidation and free radical reactions*2

When oxygenic photosynthesis evolved, one of the key functions of carotenoids was to protect aerobic photosynthetic organisms against destruction by photodynamic sensitization. Aerobic photosynthesis would not exist without the coevolution of carotenoids alongside the chlorophylls. As carotenoids are abundant in nature, in many fruits and vegetables, they are able to react with excited states o...
