Degradation of antibiotic pollutants by persulfate activated with various carbon materials

TL;DR: Antibiotic residues are ubiquitous in wastewater, surface water, and groundwater worldwide with concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 5.5 mM as discussed by the authors, with concentrations varying from 1.5 to 10 mM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Degradation of antibiotic pollutants by persulfate activated with various carbon materials

TL;DR: In this article , the authors provided a comprehensive understanding on the degradation of antibiotics by carbon-activated persulfate system and discussed the roles of operation parameters and synergistic effects of carbon materials combined with other assisted strategies.

Burgeoning prospects of biochar and its composite in persulfate-advanced oxidation process.

TL;DR: In this article, the development and progress of biochar and its composites as catalyst in persulfate-advanced oxidation process is discussed, and possible challenges are finally proposed in the fundamental research and practically scaled up application.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochar as a support for nanocatalysts and other reagents: Recent advances and applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an overview of biochar as a support for nanocatalysts and other reagents, its mode of coordination and activation with nanoparticles and applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

The removal of tetracycline from water using biochar produced from agricultural discarded material.

TL;DR: This adsorbent could therefore be produced at the site of an agricultural enterprise through the pyrolysis of agriculture waste and then used to reduce the infiltration of antibiotics into the environment.

Radical generation by the interaction of transition metals with common oxidants.

TL;DR: Nine transition metals were tested for the activation of three oxidants and the generation of inorganic radical species such as sulfate, peroxymonosulfate, and hydroxyl radicals to postulate the rate-determining step of the redox reactions taking place when a metal is coupled with an oxidant in aqueous solution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic molecular structure of plant biomass-derived black carbon (biochar)

TL;DR: A molecular-level assessment of the physical organization and chemical complexity of biomass-derived chars and, specifically, that of aromatic carbon in char structures suggests the existence of four distinct categories of char consisting of a unique mixture of chemical phases and physical states.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemistry of persulfates in water and wastewater treatment: A review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an overview of various methods for analysis of persulfate decontamination and their analysis is often prone for interference by other matrix components and hampered by the low stability of peroxydisulfate and peroxymonosulfate in aqueous systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanism of base activation of persulfate.

TL;DR: The results of this research are consistent with the widespread reactivity reported for base-activated persulfate when it is used for ISCO.

In Situ Chemical Oxidation of Contaminated Soil and Groundwater Using Persulfate: A Review

TL;DR: In this article, the fundamental reactions and governing factors of persulfate relevant to in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) are discussed, with a focus on the different activation methods, the amenable contaminants, and the reactions of polysilicon with porous media, based primarily on a critical review of the peer-reviewed scientific literature.
