TL;DR: In this article, NH4Cl-induced activated carbon (NAC) was used for amoxicillin removal from contaminated water and the results showed that NAC was an efficient and effective method for treating contaminants in water.

TL;DR: The results of the present study suggest that use of C. Coloniales algae can be a good alternative to the current expensive methods of removing heavy metals from aqueous solution.

TL;DR: In this article, the degradation rate of tetracycline in aqueous solution was investigated using sulfate radicals under ultrasound irradiation, and the effect of various operational parameters, including initial TRS concentration, initial peroxydisulfate concentration, solution pH, reaction time, temperature, ultrasound power, the presence of natural organic matter, radical scavenger (tert-butyl alcohol and methanol), as well as the chemical composition of water using ultrapure water, drinking water, and secondary effluent on the degradation efficiency of TRS.

TL;DR: In this article, a modified thermal/sol-gel method was used as catalyst for ozonation of pharmaceuticals contaminants, and it was found that MgO prepared with magnesium acetate as Mg source, NH 4 OH as alkaline agent, surfactant as capping agent, and calcination at 500°C had the highest catalytic activity for acetaminophen (ACT) degradation.

TL;DR: Monitoring of pH in the effluent of the column presented the simultaneous release of H+ with the uptake of heavy metals; hence, ion exchange was confirmed to be one of the main biosorption mechanisms.
