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:

Surface Reactions in Selective Modification: The Prerequisite for Plastic Flotation.
TL;DR: This critical review of surface modifications of plastic suggests that plastic flotation with clear surface reactions may promote plastic recycling and thereby control waste plastic at the source, save energy, and reduce microplastics.

Evaluation of phytotoxicity of municipal landfill leachate before and after biological treatment
TL;DR: The results of the study show that plant species respond differently and that municipal solid waste landfill leachate show phytotoxicity, even after biological treatment, which demonstrates the efficiency of the treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hazardous waste landfill leachate treatment by combined chemical and biological techniques
TL;DR: In this article, the results of the biodegradability test revealed a high content of readily bio-degrable organic matter in semicoke landfill leachate, and thus, aerobic biological oxidation was found to be a more reasonable and cost-effective technique for leachates treatment than direct chemical processes (ozonation, Fenton treatment).

Optimization of Opto-Electrical and Photocatalytic Properties of SnO2 Thin Films Using Zn2+ and W6+ Dopant Ions
TL;DR: A series of Zn2+ and W6+ doped tin oxide (SnO2) thin films with various dopant concentrations were prepared by spray pyrolysis deposition, and were characterized by X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, contact angle, absorbance, current density-voltage (J-V) and photocurrent measurements.
