Heavy metal (loid) s and organic pollutants have garnered global concern due to their
potential for bioaccumulation and carcinogenic effects. The aquatic environment is one of …

Heterogeneous Fenton processes with solid catalysts have gained much attention for water
and wastewater treatment in recent years. In the field of solid catalysts, zero valent iron (ZVI) …

Antibiotics have been frequently detected in the aquatic environment and are of emerging
concern due to their adverse effect and potential of inducing antibiotic resistance. In this …

In this work, the application of EEM-PARAFAC (fluorescence excitation-emission matrix-
parallel factor analysis) in water treatment processes, has been summarized. First, its most …

Organic contaminants (OCs) are increasingly being reported in African aquatic systems, yet
a critical evaluation of the literature is still lacking. The objectives of this review were to:(1) …

The chemical decolorization of the azo-dye Acid Black 1 (AB1) by ZVI-assisted Fenton
systems was investigated for assessing the relative importance of reductive and oxidative …

A highly efficient, eco-friendly and relatively low-cost catalyst is necessary to tackle
bottlenecks in the treatment of industrial wastewater laden with heavy metals and antibiotic …

It is generally recognized that the formation and accumulation of iron oxides on the surface
of zero-valent iron (Fe 0) resulting in significant decrease of contaminant degradation rates …

Chloramphenicol (CAP) has been extensively used in the broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy
so that its excessive emission has brought about serious contamination in aquatic …

Biochar (BC) is an inexpensive and widely available carbon-based material with a variety of
applications. Zero valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI), on the other hand, are highly reactive …
