The study examined AC/H2O2 treatment of amoxicillin and cloxacillin antibiotics aqueous solution. The treatment was optimized by the central composite design (CCD) of response surface methodology (RSM). The optimum operating conditions at pH 3 were H2O2/COD molar ratio 2.0, AC 3.5 g/L and reaction t...
