A comprehensive review on catalysts for electrocatalytic and photoelectrocatalytic degradation of antibiotics
Abstract
Abstract Antibiotics in water environment have caused serious risk to human health due to their difficult biodegradability and environmental accumulation. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been demonstrated to effectively degrade antibiotics in wastewaters via the formation of reactive oxygen species with strong oxidation ability, such as hydroxyl radical. Electrocatalysis (EC) and photoelectrocatalysis (PEC) have emerged as promising AOPs. This article provides a comprehensive review on the progress in EC and PEC for degradation of antibiotics, with emphasis on the development of catalysts and their performances. The effect of experimental parameters (current density, applied potential, pH, electrolyte concentration, coexisting ions, and light source and intensity) on the degradation of antibiotics and the toxicity of intermediate, final products, and treated water are also assessed. Finally, the challenges and perspectives are discussed for EC and PEC degradation processes of antibiotics.

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.
