Degradation and mineralization of dyes with advanced oxidation processes (AOPs): A brief review

摘要

The discharge of wastewater which contains dyes, represents serious environmental problem and receives public health concern. It has become a big challenge to degrade and mineralize these dyes. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), based on the production of hydroxide radicals are effective methods to treat the dye wastewater compared with other methods. This paper reviews the current available AOPs that are effective to degrade and mineralize dyes.
