Degradation of Micropollutants and Formation of Oxidation By-Products during the Ozone/Peroxymonosulfate System: A Critical Review

The O3/PMS system has appeared as an effective wastewater treatment method because of the simultaneous generation of hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and sulfate radicals (SO4•−). Many research achievements have been made on the degradation of micropollutants and the reaction mechanism of the O3/PMS system. However, an integral understanding of the O3/PMS system is lacking, which limits the development of safe and effective AOP-based water treatment schemes. Therefore, in this review, the degradation effects, toxicity changes, and reaction mechanisms of various micropollutants in the O3/PMS system are reviewed. The formation of oxidation by-products (OBPs) is an important issue that affects the practical application of O3/PMS systems. The formation mechanism and control methods of OBPs in the O3/PMS system are overviewed. In addition, the influence of different reaction conditions on the O3/PMS system are comprehensively evaluated. Finally, future research needs are proposed based on the limited understanding of O3/PMS systems in the degradation of micropollutants and formation of OBPs. Specifically, the formation rules of several kinds of OBPs during the O3/PMS system are not completely clear yet. Furthermore, pilot-scale research, the operational costs, sustainability, and general feasibility of the O3/PMS system also need to be studied. This review can offer a comprehensive assessment on the O3/PMS system to fill the knowledge gap and provide guidance for the future research and engineering applications of the O3/PMS system. Through this effort, the O3/PMS system can be better developed and turned towards practical applications.
