Adjusting pH values in aqueous environments can significantly improve the efficiency by
which parabens and halo-parabens are removed. In this study, 20 neutral and deprotonated …

This study analyzed the degradation by direct photolysis with UV radiation of three common-
use parabens (methylparaben, MetP, ethylparaben, EtP, and butylparaben, ButP) that have …

This study investigated the reaction kinetics and degradation efficiency of methylparaben
and its halogenated products (Cl-, Br-, Cl, Cl-, Br, Cl-, and Br, Br-methylparabens) during …

As emerging organic contaminants (EOCs), the ubiquitous presence of preservative
parabens in water causes a serious environmental concern. Hydroxyl radical (• OH) is a …

The removal efficiencies of four different parabens (methylparaben (MP), ethylparaben (EP),
propylparaben (PP), and butylparaben (BP)) using Fenton reagent, UV irradiation, UV/H 2 O …

UV-C-mediated advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for the enhanced degradation of
ethyl paraben (EP) in the presence of oxidants such as persulfate (PS), hydrogen peroxide …

Personal care products such as soaps, tooth paste and shampoo often contain pollutants
such as parabens, which refer to the esters of parahydroxylbenzoic acid, and end up …

As disinfection by-products of parabens, halogenated parabens are frequently detected in
aquatic environments and exhibit higher persistence and toxicity than parabens themselves …

Methyl paraben (MP), a widely used preservative, exhibits endocrine-disrupting properties
with estrogenic activities. The aqueous phase degradation of MP, using UV-activated …

This study investigated the reactivity and mechanism of paraben oxidization by chlorine
dioxide. Degradation kinetics of methylparaben (MeP) and propylparaben (PrP) followed …
