Abstract Bromide (Br−), which is omnipresent in water bodies, can not only affect the
degradation kinetics of target pollutants but may also form undesired byproducts (such as …

Abstract Bromide (Br−), a ubiquitous species in natural water, is capable of reacting with
sulfate radical (SO 4∙−) and hydroxyl radical (∙ OH) to form secondary reactive bromine …

Bromide (Br−) is a typical scavenger to sulfate radical (SO 4•−) and hydroxyl radical (HO•),
which simultaneously forms secondary reactive bromine species (RBS) such as Br• and Br …

The ultraviolet/persulfate (UV/PS) process has attracted more and more attention for water
treatment. However, it runs the risk of producing bromate in the presence of bromide ions. In …

The UV/persulfate process is an effective advanced oxidation process (AOP) for the
abatement of a variety of micropollutants via producing sulfate radicals (SO 4•-). However …

Abstract Sulfate radical (SO 4•-)-based advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs) show
great potential in the elimination of organic pollutants in wastewater treatment and …

Applying the highly oxidative sulfate radical (SO 4-·) to pollutant degradation may cause it to
react with the coexisting bromide (Br−) to form undesired byproducts. This study investigated …

Abstract Sulfate radicals (SO 4−·) are applied to degrade various organic pollutants. Due to
its high oxidative potential, SO 4−· is presumed to be able to transform bromide to reactive …

The objective of this research was to compare the transformation of Br− and formation of
brominated byproducts in UV/persulfate (PS) and UV/H 2 O 2 processes. It was revealed that …

A sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation process (SR-AOP) has received increasing
application interest for the removal of water/wastewater contaminants. However, limited …
