Sequential application of Fenton and ozone-based oxidation process for the abatement of Ni-EDTA containing nickel plating effluents.
TL;DR: Determination of integrated sequence found that Fenton oxidation presented higher apparent kinetic rate constant of Ni-EDTA oxidation and capacity for contamination load than ozone-based oxidation process, the latter, however, was favorable to guarantee the further mineralization of organic substances, especially at a low concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced Degradation of Perfluorocarboxylic Acids (PFCAs) by UV/Sulfite Treatment: Reaction Mechanisms and System Efficiencies at pH 12
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used UV-generated hydrated electrons (eaq) to destroy perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCAs, CnF2n+1COO-COO).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used oxidation with hydroxyl radicals (HO•) to convert fluorotelomer carboxylates and FTSAs to a mixture of PFCAs, and the subsequent reduction with UV-sulfite achieved deep defluorination of the PFCA mixture for up to 90%.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-content screening in zebrafish identifies perfluorooctanesulfonamide as a potent developmental toxicant.
TL;DR: Overall, the findings show that early exposure to PFOSA adversely impacts embryogenesis, an effect that may lead to altered lipid transport and liver development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accelerated Degradation of Perfluorosulfonates and Perfluorocarboxylates by UV/Sulfite + Iodide: Reaction Mechanisms and System Efficiencies
TL;DR: In this paper , the reduction of per-and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) decay, defluorination, and transformation product formation in UV/sulfite system (UV/S) + iodide system was investigated.
