Degradation of 17β-estradiol by UV/persulfate in different water samples

Sulfate radical (•SO4−)-based advanced oxidation processes are widely used for wastewater treatment. This study explored the potential use of UV/persulfate (UV/PS) system for the degradation of 17β-estradiol (E2). The pH of the reaction system can affect the degradation rate of E2 by UV/PS and the o...
