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.

Formic acid enhanced effective degradation of methyl orange dye in aqueous solutions under UV–Vis irradiation

TL;DR: It was found that the decolouration of the dye solutions can be rapidly achieved, reducing the time from around 17.6 h without FA to mostly about less than 2 h with the presence of FA, and there existed a positive correlation between the reaction rate constant and the initial FA concentration.
