Effect of Photo-Fenton Operating Conditions on the Performance of Photo-Fenton-SBR Process for Recalcitrant Wastewater Treatment
The study was undertaken to examine the effect of H2O2/Fe2+ molar ratio, one of the important operating conditions of the photo-Fenton process on the performance of combined photo-Fenton-SBR process for treatment of recalcitrant (antibiotic) wastewater. The SBR was fed with photo-Fenton-treated anti...
