Materials Based on Co, Cu, and Cr as Activators of PMS for Degrading a Representative Antibiotic—The Strategy for Utilization in Water Treatment and Warnings on Metal Leaching

Materials Based on Co, Cu, and Cr as Activators of PMS for Degrading a Representative Antibiotic—The Strategy for Utilization in Water Treatment and Warnings on Metal Leaching

A chromate of copper and cobalt (Φy) was synthesized and characterized. Φy activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to degrade ciprofloxacin (CIP) in water. The Φy/PMS combination showed a high degrading capability toward CIP (~100% elimination in 15 min). However, Φy leached cobalt (1.6 mg L<sup>−1&...
