FENTON REAGENT IN COMBINATION WITH UV LIGHT AND ULTRASOUND WAVES APPLIED FOR CAFFEINE OXIDATION
Villota N., Lomas J., Lombraña J., Ferreiro C.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
The oxidation of aqueous caffeine solutions ([Ca]0=100.0 mg L-1) was analyzed, operating at pH=3.0 and 25ºC using different AOPs, which combine the Fenton reagent ([H2O2]0=15.0 mM and [Fe2+]0=20.0 mg L-1) with low power UV light (15W,), medium (150W), and high (720 W). The Fenton reagent, combined...Read more

Destruction of anthracene and phenanthrene using PDS/UV, one of advanced oxidation processes in terms of degree of destruction and by-products.
(Corresponding) Nowakowski M., Czyż E., Wolski R., Andrzejewski P.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Anthracene and phenanthrene belong to a group of persistent environmental contaminants called PAHs. Evaluation of the structural of two selected PAHs i.e. anthracene and phenanthrene on its resistance to destruction by UV-activated PDS was the aim of this study. Authors focused on two aspects of...Read more
EVALUATION OF PHOTOCHEMICAL DEGRADATION OF ANTIVIRAL ACYCLOVIR BY UVC/PS & UVC/H2O2 IN SYNTHETIC FRESH AND HYDROLYZED URINE
Drosou C., Tyrovola K., (Corresponding) Xekoukoulotakis N.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
The increasing presence of contaminants of anthropogenic origin in the aquatic environment raises the concern of the scientific community (Patel et al., 2019). Antiviral drugs play an important role, as their presence in aquatic bodies is associated with antiviral resistance and chronic toxicity to...Read more
