Sulfate Radical Advanced Oxidation Processes: Activation Methods and Application to Industrial Wastewater Treatment

Industrial wastewater (IWW) generation is a serious problem when set free into an environment in the absence of appropriate treatment; therefore, industries spot for structured, easy, and low-cost treatment processes. This review intends to present the applicability of sulfate radical’s advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs) for IWW treatment. Different peroxymonosulfate (PMS), and persulfate (PS) activation methods are addressed. Laboratory, pilot-scale enforcement of SR-AOPs in IWW treatment, with a focus on the advantages and disadvantages of these processes, are presented.
