We come to the recovery concept from 2 different directions. F.F. is a consumer professional who has both a scientific appreciation for schizophrenia as an illness and personal experience of battling both the illness and stigma from mental health professionals and the community. He came to the recovery concept as a function of his personal struggles and growth. A.S.B. is a behavior therapist wh...

The necessity and challenges associated with the new-type photocatalytic Fenton-like system was introduced, followed by discussion of innovation breakthrough self-cyclable photo-Fenton in this highlights. An inspiration towards new-generation decentralized sustainable environment treatment device is expected.

Background: Mature landfill leachate is a complicated mixture which is resistant to biological treatment processes. The treatment of mature landfill leachate by struvite precipitation and Fenton oxidation was the main objective of the current research. Methods: Struvite with the phosphate/ammonia/magnesium molar ratio of 1/1/1.05 was considered during all experiments. Five initial pHs of 3, 4,...

Degradation of polyvinyl alcohol was studied a combination of chemical treatment with Fenton process and biological degradation in anaerobic environment. The experiment was based on different amounts of hydrogen peroxide and of Fe(II) added to water solution of PVA of concentration 200-500 mg.L. Fenton process was monitored by analyzing the total organic carbon (TOC) in the solution. Depending ...

The removal efficiency of 4-chlorophenol with different advanced oxidation processes have been studied. Oxidation experiments were carried out using two 4-chlorophenol concentrations: 100 mg L and 250 mg L and UV generated from a KrCl excilamp with (molar ratio H2O2: 4-chlorophenol = 25:1) and without H2O2, and, with Fenton process (molar ratio H2O2:4chlorophenol of 25:1 and Fe concentration of...

A recently developed Pd-based electro-Fenton (E-Fenton) process enables efficient in situ remediation of organic contaminants in groundwater. In the process, H₂O₂, Fe(II), and acidic conditions (~pH 3) are produced in situ to facilitate the decontamination, but the role of ubiquitous natural organic matters (NOM) remain unclear. This study investigated the effect of Aldrich humic acid (HA) on t...

The presence of estrogens in livestock excrement has raised concerns about their potential negative influence on animals and the overall food cycle. This is the first investigation to simultaneously remove estrogens, including estriol (E3), bisphenol A (BPA), diethylstilbestrol (DES), estradiol (E2), and ethinyl estradiol (EE2), from cow manure using a Fenton oxidation technique. Based on the r...
