Promoted elimination of antibiotic sulfamethoxazole in water using sodium percarbonate activated by ozone: Mechanism, degradation pathway and toxicity assessment

The development history and evolutionary trends of percarbonate: Bibliometric analysis from 2000 to 2022

“…Group 3, clusters #2 and #6 focus on the development of different activation methods and reaction mechanisms of percarbonate. There are various ways to activate percarbonate, such as UV, 54 iron-based materials, 55 ozone, 56 ultrasound, 57 and transition metal activation. 58 Among them, transition metals ( e.g.…”

Targeted Decomplexation of Metal Complexes for Efficient Metal Recovery by Ozone/Percarbonate

“…In this study, we first propose the ozone/percarbonate (O 3 /SPC) process for efficient Cu­(II)–EDTA decomplexation with simultaneous Cu recovery, which is an economic and environmentally friendly method to generate CO 3 •– as the main active species. , In detail, in comparison to the combination of liquid H 2 O 2 and Na 2 CO 3 , SPC (Na 2 CO 3 ·1.5H 2 O 2 ) as a solid-phase oxidant has the advantages of longer storage time and superior antiexplosion in the dry environment, as well as lower economic cost for the application . Additionally, many studies have pointed out that SPC and its byproducts have no toxic impact on living organisms, enabling the O 3 /SPC process to combine with a subsequent biological process .…”

Extraction of antibiotics identified in the EU Watch List 2020 from hospital wastewater using hydrophobic eutectic solvents and terpenoids

“…Over the last few years, several techniques have been studied for the removal of pharmaceuticals from wastewater, such as activated sludge treatment [24][25][26][27], membrane bioreactor [28][29][30][31][32], constructed wetland [33][34][35][36][37], adsorption [3,[38][39][40], membrane filtration (ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis) [41][42][43][44][45][46], and advanced oxidation processes (wet air oxidation; electrochemical oxidation; photolysis; ultrasound irradiation; heterogeneous photocatalysis; ozone and ozone/hydrogen peroxide treatment; and Fenton oxidation) [15,18,[47][48][49][50][51].…”
