Sulfate radical-based ferrous–peroxymonosulfate oxidative system for PCBs d…

Abstract. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the environment pose long-term risk to public health because of their persistent and toxic nature. This study investigates the degradation of PCBs using sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs). These processes are based on the generation of sulfate radicals throughiron(Fe(II), Fe(III))mediated activationof peroxymonosulfate …
