Tailored photocatalysts and revealed reaction pathways for photodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water, soil and other sources

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are in the class of persistent organic pollutants, are considered as hazardous pollutants. To date, these compounds were detected globally in soil, sludge, water, and other contamination sources. A variety of treatment methods have b...

A variety of treatment methods have been used in recent years to degrade PAHs in the environment.

Focus is also placed on revealing several possible reaction pathways for different types of PAHs that have been proposed in the literature. Particular attention to current status, challenges, and prospects in the future for enhanced photodegradation of PAHs are also discussed. 2020-10-14T08:28:18Z 2020-10-14T08:28:18Z 2020-12-01 Journal 18791298 00456535 2-s2.0-85087865899 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.127529 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=85087865899&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/70358
