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:

Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of dipyrone and its main intermediates by solar AOPs: Identification of intermediate products and toxicity assessment
TL;DR: In this article, two solar advanced oxidation processes, namely, heterogeneous photocatalysis with TiO2 and photo-Fenton, carried out at pilot-plant scale using compound parabolic collectors are proposed for the elimination of dipyrone and its metabolites in water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicity and organic content characterization of olive oil mill wastewater undergoing a sequential treatment with fungi and photo-Fenton oxidation.
Celine I.L. Justino,Kátia Duarte,Filipe Loureiro,Ruth Pereira,Sara C. Antunes,Sérgio Marques,Fernando Gonçalves,Teresa Rocha-Santos,Ana C. Freitas +8 more
TL;DR: Despite fungal species still have demonstrated a high capacity for bioaccumulation of organic compounds, resulting from photo-Fenton oxidation, the biological treatment did not cause substantial benefits in terms of COD, total phenolic content and toxicity reduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multivariate approach to photocatalytic degradation of a cellulose bleaching effluent
Montserrat Pérez,Francesc Torrades,José Peral,C. Lizama,Claudio Bravo,Susana Casas,Juanita Freer,Héctor D. Mansilla +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a multivariate experimental design was used to evaluate the degradation of cellulose ECF effluent using multivariate analysis to establish the weight of each variable in the COD and AOX removal after 180min of reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
pH sequential ozonation of domestic and wine-distillery wastewaters.
TL;DR: Experimental results of pH sequential ozonation showed degradation and removal rates of wastewater pollutants higher than those achieved at constant either acidic or basic pH, but ozonated wastewaters showed high biodegradability as deduced from their BOD/COD ratios.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photochemical-biological treatment of a real industrial biorecalcitrant wastewater containing 5-amino-6-methyl-2-benzimidazolone.
TL;DR: Analysis of the solution resulting from the treatment of AMBI is biologically compatible and complete mineralisation can be performed by biological means and this solar catalytic system is an effective treatment for this kind of industrial wastewater.
