Intensification of UV-C treatment to remove emerging contaminants by UV-C/H2O2 and UV-C/S2O82−: Susceptibility to photolysis and investigation of acute toxicity
Open accessAbstract
In this study, the degradation of four emerging contaminants losartan potassium (LP), furosemide (FRSM), caffeine (CAF), and carbendazim (CBZ) under UV-C, UV-C/H 2 O 2 , and UV-C/S 2 O 8 2− was investigated. A comparative evaluation of the efficiency of UV-C/H 2 O 2 and UV-C/S 2 O 8 2− in the degradation of these target CECs has not yet been reported. Moreover, target compounds were submitted to UV-C/AOPs individually in pure water and their simultaneous degradation was investigated in real surface water. Evolution of the acute toxicity of each compound during treatment was evaluated using Alivibrio fischeri. Quantum yields were determined for LP (0.011–0.016), FRSM (0.024–0.092), CAF (0.0007–0.0009), and CBZ (0.0016–0.0036) at different pH values. UV-C/H 2 O 2 and UV-C/S 2 O 8 2 achieved more than 98% removal of all compounds within 600 mJ cm −2 , and pseudo-fist-order kinetic constants ( k′ app ) for the degradation reactions were up to seven times higher in the presence of these oxidants when compared to k′ app values obtained for UV-C photolysis . k′ app measured for UV-C/H 2 O 2 were higher than those calculated for UV-C/S 2 O 8 2− except in the case of LP. Acute toxicity analysis suggested the formation of toxic intermediates during the UV-C photolysis of LP and FRSM, and the degradation of LP via UV-C/S 2 O 8 2− also enhanced acute toxicity although electric energy efficiency per order identified UV-C/S 2 O 8 2 as the most efficient process for the removal of this compound. Finally, different transformation products obtained during the degradation of caffeine under the different UV-C AOPs suggested that distinct degradation routes were involved in each treatment tested.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
