With the tremendous development of the economy and industry, the pollution of water is becoming more serious due to the excessive chemical wastes that need to remove thru reduction or oxidation reactions. Simultaneous removal of dual pollutants via photocatalytic redox reaction has been...

Industrialization, civilization and human activities have all grown steadily in recent years. As a result, small and large industries discharge many organic pollutants into the environment and contribute to environmental pollution. These compounds are quite stable and challenging to break down...

In recent years, the application of green rusts (GRs) for water purification has received significant attention, but its full understanding has not been well achieved. Then, the comprehension about the synthesis and characteristics of GRs can highly favor their decontamination performances for the...

In recent years, microplastic pollution in the environment has attracted attention worldwide. The large specific surface area and strong adsorption capacity of microplastics lead to interactions with typical environmental contaminants (such as organic pollutants and heavy metals), thereby changing...

The high concentration of salt in industrial wastewater has a strong inhibitory effect on the removal of pollutants by free radicals. A method has been developed to effectively remove micro organic pollutants in industrial high-salinity wastewater. This study investigated the combination of...

N-doped carbons have attracted extensive attention as catalysts for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation towards environmental remediation. However, synthesis of N-rich carbocatalysts is challenging and PMS activation mechanism is still unclear. Herein, novel N-rich porous carbocatalysts (C-P_xCN-T)...

Electrocoagulation (EC) can be defined as a method utilized to remove pollutants from wastewater by applying an electric current to sacrificial electrodes. Many experimental variables like NaCl content (0-4 g/l), current density (5-25 mA/cm2), electrolysis time (30-90 mins), and pH (4-10) that...

Agriculture, industry, urbanization, and population growth lead to the spread of countless pollutants to the environment. Environmental pollution is one of the biggest problems faced by humanity. There are numerous chemicals (heavy metals, dyes, detergents, toxic compounds with aromatic rings,...

Switchable hydrophilic solvents (SHSs) have been widely used in analytical chemistry since they were reported in 2005 due to the unique switchable advantages. This kind of solvent can be easily switched between hydrophilic and hydrophobic forms with the merits of greenness, rapidness of separation...

Mass transfer efficiency and catalytic reactivity are the two major hurdles for heterogeneous catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) technologies. To address these issues, nanocomposite CuFeO₂/Al₂O₃ was synthesized and assessed as a novel catalyst for enhanced adsorption and oxidation of anionic ...
