Anaerobic biodegradation of saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons.

TL;DR: Saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons are wide-spread in the authors' environment and for many decades were thought to undergo biodegradation only in the presence of free oxygen, but during the past decade, an increasing number of microorganisms have been detected that degradation under strictly anoxic conditions.

Degradation of sulfamethoxazole by microwave-activated persulfate: Kinetics, mechanism and acute toxicity

TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) in a microwave-activated persulfate (MW/PS) system was evaluated, and the results indicated that MW/PS degradation of SMX followed pseudo-first-order kinetics, and compared with conventional heating, microwave heating has a special effect on SMX degradation with higher reaction rate and shorter process time.
