Advanced oxidation process-mediated removal of pharmaceuticals from water: A review
Pharmaceuticals, which are frequently detected in natural and wastewater bodies as well as drinking water have attracted considerable attention, because they do not readily biodegrade and may persist and remain toxic. As a result, pharmaceutical residues pose on-going and potential health and envi...

| description |
Pharmaceuticals, which are frequently detected in natural and wastewater bodies as well as drinking
water have attracted considerable attention, because they do not readily biodegrade and may persist and
remain toxic. As a result, pharmaceutical residues pose on-going and potential health and environmental
risks. To tackle these emerging contaminants, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) such as photo-
Fenton, sonolysis, electrochemical oxidation, radiation and ozonation etc. have been applied to
remove pharmaceuticals. These processes utilize the high reactivity of hydroxyl radicals to progressively
oxidize organic compounds to innocuous products. This review provides an overview of the findings
from recent studies, which have applied AOPs to degrade pharmaceutical compounds. Included is a
discussion that links various factors of TiO2-mediated photocatalytic treatment to its effectiveness in
degrading pharmaceutical residues. This review furthermore highlights the success of AOPs in the
removal of pharmaceuticals from different water matrices and recommendations for future studies are
outlined. |
