using thermally-and alkali-activated persulfates (ie, peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and
peroxydisulfate (PDS)) was studied with two indices representing dewaterability change, ie,
centrifuged weight reduction (CWR) and standardized-capillary suction time (SCST). The
tested conditions include 50° C/PMS, 50° C/PDS, 80° C/PMS, and 80° C/PDS as thermally-
activated persulfate systems and NaOH/PMS, NaOH/PDS, KOH/PMS, and KOH/PDS as …
