Types of Advanced Oxidation Processes: An In-Depth Analysis Introduction In recent years, the quest for more efficient and sustainable methods to treat wastewater has led to the development of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). These processes utilize highly reactive species, primarily hydroxyl radicals, to effectively decompose a wide range of organic contaminants, making them a vital […]

Advanced Oxidation Processes in Wastewater Treatment: A Comprehensive Overview   Introduction   As the global demand for clean water continues to rise, effective wastewater treatment has become a priority for both developed and developing nations. Among the myriad technologies available for wastewater treatment, Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) have emerged as a promising solution due to […]

The Fenton process is an advanced oxidation procedure that harnesses the chemistry of iron and hydrogen peroxide to purify wastewater. It is named after the British chemist H.J.H. Fenton, who discovered that ferrous ions could catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to generate hydroxyl radicals, potent oxidants capable of degrading a wide range of organic […]
