Journal ArticleDOI
Treatment of landfill leachate by ozone-based advanced oxidation processes.
TL;DR: O3/UV was found to be the most effective approach among these ozone-based AOPs to enhancing the biodegradability and eliminating the color of leachate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decontamination industrial pharmaceutical wastewater by combining solar photo-Fenton and biological treatment.
TL;DR: Biodegradability and toxicity bioassays showed that photo-Fenton should be performed until total degradation of nalidixic acid before coupling a biological treatment, and overall DOC degradation efficiency was over 95%, of which 33% correspond to the solar photochemical process and 62% to the biological treatment.
