Recent advances in ozone-based advanced oxidation processes for treatment of wastewater- A review

TL;DR: A review of ozone-based AOP processes as a combination of ozonation with other techniques for the degradation and mineralization of recalcitrant organics present in the industrial/municipal wastewater based on the recently published work were reported as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterogeneous photocatalytic degradation of ibuprofen in ultrapure water, municipal and pharmaceutical industry wastewaters using a TiO2/UV-LED system

TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation and mineralization of ibuprofen (IBU) were investigated using Ultraviolet (UV) Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) in TiO 2 photocatalysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent advances in the bio-remediation of persistent organic pollutants and its effect on environment

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the current state of research activities on the application of biodegradation/bioremediation for removing persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as pesticides, PCBs, PAHs and PPCPs from wastewater is presented.

Diclofenac removal from water by adsorption using activated carbon in batch mode and fixed-bed column: isotherms, thermodynamic study and breakthrough curves modeling.

TL;DR: In this paper, diclofenac adsorption was studied using activated carbon as adsorbent in batch process and fixed-bed column and the results showed that the amount adsorbed by the packed column was better predicted by Thomas equation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative study on 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 2,4-dichlorophenol removal from aqueous solutions via ozonation, photocatalysis and non-thermal plasma using a planar falling film reactor.

TL;DR: The degradation by using ozone is very effective, but it should be noted that the mineralization measured by the total organic carbon (TOC) removal is low, which is the formation of stable towards ozone intermediates, especially low chain carboxylic acids.

Toxic effects of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac: Part I: histopathological alterations and bioaccumulation in rainbow trout☆

TL;DR: From the present findings it can be assumed, that prolonged exposure in environmentally relevant concentrations of diclofenac leads to an impairment of the general health condition of fish.
