Persulfate-Based Oxidation Processes in Environmental Rem...
Zhu, Mingshan / Bian, Zhenfeng / Zhao, Chun Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) use chemical treatment to remove contaminants from water by oxidation with reactive oxidative species. These reactive oxidative species can be produced using UV light, ozone or hydrogen peroxide, but recently reactions have been developed that use persulfates as the radical source. Persulfates are strong oxidants with flexible in situ activation characteristics, including activation with heat, alkali conditi...
