Water Science & Technology Special Issue on:
Advanced Oxidation Processes for Contaminants of Emerging Concern
Generally, conventional water treatment approaches are effective at removing contaminants of emerging concern satisfactorily; however, these can be sometimes chemically, energetically, and operationally intensive. In this context, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have emerged as sustainable technologies for stopping pollutants from reaching the environment, offering different solutions to many environmental problems.
In this Special Issue, we present recent developments in AOP technology for treating CECs. This Special Issue also includes articles on the use of AOPs for the treatment of antibiotics, pharmaceuticals and personal care products, and other organic pollutants. The articles cover a range of AOP technologies, including photocatalysis, electrochemical oxidation, catalyst, persulfate oxidation, and air plasma.
This Special Issue highlights the potential of AOPs for treating CECs as well as the importance of
considering real water matrices, including palm oil mill effluent waste
activated sludge, wastewater treatment plants, and pharmaceutical
wastewater, in developing and optimizing AOPs for the treatment of CECs.
