A Novel Advanced Oxidation Technology: Activated Persulfate

The thermal, photochemical or metal ions activated decomposition of persulfate anions (S₂O₈^2-) produces a powerful oxidant known as the sulfate free radical (·SO₄^-), which can potentially destroy organic compounds. Activated persulfate oxidation chemistry is an emerging advanced oxidation technology (AOT) for organic pollutants degradation. This paper, for the first time, provides an up-to-date overview of application of the novel technology in not only soil and groundwater remediation, but also wastewater treatment. S₂O₈^2- is a relatively new form of in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) oxidant that has mainly been investigated at bench-scale. However, the technology has developed rapidly due to the considerable research and applied use of this oxidant at an increasing number of field sites. As for wastewater treatment, S₂O₈^2- was mostly used as an electron-trapping agent to suppress hole-electron recombination in the TiO₂ photocatalytic system, and only a very few reports have discussed organic pollutants direct-degradation by activated persulfate oxidation. The prospects of activated persulfate oxidation technology are also discussed.
