In recent years, the removal of organic pollutants from water and wastewater has attracted more attention to different advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). There been increasing interest in using peroxyacetic acid (PAA), an emerging oxidant with low or no toxic by-products, yet promotion application are limited by unclear activation mechanisms complex preparation processes. This paper synthesiz...

Today, environmental impact associated with pollution treatment is a matter of great concern. A method is proposed for evaluating environmental risk associated with Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) applied to wastewater treatment. The method is based on the type of pollution (wastewater, solids, air or soil) and on materials and energy consumption. An Environmental Risk Index (E), constructe...

In recent year large amount of water and wastewater generated from various industries and produce organic matters and contaminated the water, this organic this organic compound in water poses serious problems to public health as well as environment. The advanced oxidation process (AOPs) is one of the advanced treatment method for wastewater remediation. In AOPs, ElectroFenton process (EFP) is o...

Over the last years the growing presence of endocrine disrupting compounds in the environment has been regarded as a serious sanitary issue. The more and more frequent detection of these compounds in the effluents of wastewater treatment plants poses the risk associated to their persistence into the aquatic systems as well as to their adverse effects on both public health and environment. As co...

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been reported as alternative ways for treating reverse osmosis (RO) concentrate which is the primary concern water reclamation plants. AOPs are known to oxidize recalcitrant organic compounds by a highly reactive and nonselective oxidant, hydroxyl radical (<sup>?</sup>OH). Researchers showed that such conventional Fenton, UV/H<sub>2<...

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have received a lot of attention over the years as advanced physico-chemical polishing wastewater treatments to remove biorefractory pollutants. Additionally, many studies report their excellent degradation and mineralization performance stand-alone technologies too, demonstrating versatility these processes; however, there is lack suitable methods compare (i...

This study examined the impact of UV, ozone (O(3)), advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) including O(3)/UV, H(2)O(2)/UV H(2)O(2)/O(3) in the change of molecular weight distribution (MWD) and disinfection by-product formation potential (DBPFP). Bench-scale experiments were conducted with surface river water and changes in the UV absorbance at 254 nm (UV(254)), total organic carbon (TOC), trihalom...

When dyes are discharged in water bodies, mutagenic, carcinogenic and teratogenic effects may be caused both aquatic organisms human beings. The use of biochar the implementation advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) alternative treatments that have been used individually removal wastewater. Besides being effective acting separately, AOPs can coupled, exhibiting synergetic treatment contained wat...
