Abstract

Research outcome of heterogeneous photo-Fenton process:

  • Simultaneous removal of ARB, ARG, and MP.
  • >6-log ARB reduction occurs after 30 min, without further regrowth risk.
  • Extracellular ARG was completely removed after 7 min treatment.
  • The removal efficiency of our representative MPs was up to 99%.
  • This nanocatalyst has photocatalytic and good recyclability.
  • The proposed process is an optimistic ‘one-stop’ solution.
