Combination of Advanced Oxidation Processes and biological treatments for wastewater decontamination—A review
TLDR
The main conclusions arrived at from the overall assessment of the literature are that more work needs to be done on degradation kinetics and reactor modeling of the combined process, and also dynamics of the initial attack on primary contaminants and intermediate species generation.About:

Synthesis and characterisation of neodymium doped-zinc oxide–graphene oxide nanocomposite as a highly efficient photocatalyst for enhanced degradation of indigo carmine in water under simulated solar light
TL;DR: In this article, a nanocomposite with enhanced photocatalytic properties was synthesized by co-precipitation method, and the structures, morphologies, and photocatalyst activities of the nanocomposition were studied using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscope, Raman spectroscopy, and ultraviolet visible spectrography.

TL;DR: Activated sludge cultures appeared, therefore, in agreement with the assessment made from the analysis of physico-chemical parameters (AOS and COD/TOC), since the gain in terms of mineralization expected from increasing electrolysis duration appeared too low to balance the additional energy consumption.

M.I. Pariente,José A. Siles,Raúl Molina,Juan Ángel Botas,Juan A. Melero,Fernando J. Martinez +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the treatment of a non-biodegradable agrochemical wastewater has been studied by coupling of heterogeneous catalytic wet hydrogen peroxide oxidation (CWHPO) and rotating biological contactors (RBCs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradability enhancement and detoxification of cork processing wastewater molecular size fractions by ozone.
TL;DR: The results show that molecular size is correlated with organic load and restrains biodegradability and toxicity before and after ozonation.
