In order to know the answer, try to use the two methods in getting the level of oxidation. You can use the oxidation reaction table or the reduction half-reaction table.

Generally, most organic carbon (including aromatics) will be oxidized in the TOC procedure. Some carbon containing materials such as graphite, diamond, and maybe refractory substances such as PCBs may not be readily oxidized.

You may want to pose this question to the Water and Wastewater Laboratory Professional Forum.

I believe that Persulphate is the stronger oxidising agent.
