Fluoroquinolone antibiotics are frequently detected in the environment causing potential
hazards to ecological and human health. Inadequate removal efficiencies were reported for …

Application of photo-Fenton for wastewater reuse is a hot-topic research activity for defining
alternative water sources. In sunny water-stressed countries, solar irradiation is under study …

Three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix (3D-EEM) fluorescence spectroscopy has
been widely applied to detect the fluorescent components in samples from natural water …

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 …

A novel composite of chitosan modified biochar (CPB) and MnFe 2 O 4 (MnFe 2 O 4@ CPB)
was prepared successfully through mild chemical co-precipitation method which worked …

Homogeneous photodriven advanced oxidation processes (HP-AOPs) have been
increasingly investigated in past years as a possible alternative solution to conventional …

In recent years, the safety and ecology threat of cyanobacterial burst has drawn wide
concern, especially the release of toxic microcystin-LR (MC-LR). To break through the …

The increasing use of antibiotics in animal production has become an emergent
environmental problem. The large percentages of applied antibiotic doses eliminated in …

Herein, a new type of photocatalyst, that is biochar/gC 3 N 4 (BC/CN) composite, was
successfully prepared from melamine and waste crawfish shells by a simple thermal …

The coupling of photocatalytic and algal processes has been used for the removal of
widespread antibiotics. The removal capacities of the individual and the combined system …
