Application

<ul>
<li><strong>Electrochemical treatment of organic pollutants in landfill leachate using a three-dimensional electrode system.</strong>: This study explores the electrochemical treatment of landfill leachate using a three-dimensional electrode system. Sodium persulfate is used as an oxidizing agent to degrade organic pollutants effectively, providing a potential method for waste management and environmental protection (Yu et al., 2020).</li>
<li><strong>The Box-Benkhen experimental design for the optimization of the electrocatalytic treatment of wastewaters with high concentrations of phenol and organic matter.</strong>: This paper discusses the optimization of electrocatalytic treatment processes for wastewater containing high levels of phenol and organic matter using sodium persulfate. The study provides valuable insights for improving wastewater treatment efficiency (GilPavas et al., 2009).</li>
<li><strong>Reaction of pectin and glycidyl methacrylate and ulterior formation of free films by reticulation.</strong>: This research involves the chemical modification of pectin with glycidyl methacrylate followed by cross-linking using sodium persulfate, leading to the formation of free-standing films. These films have potential applications in pharmaceuticals and food packaging (Maior et al., 2008).</li>

In this study, batch experiments were conducted to evaluate the feasibility of petroleum-hydrocarbon contaminated soil remediation using persulfate oxidation. Various controlling factors including different persulfate and ferrous ion concentrations, different oxidants (persulfate, hydrogen peroxide, and permanganate), and different contaminants (diesel

The photocatalytic degradation of sixteen substituted phenylurea herbicides (PUHs) in pure water has been studied using zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) as photocatalyst under artificial light irradiation. Photocatalytic experiments showed that the addition of these chalcogenide oxides in

Using ultraviolet photolytic persulfate activation to produce two sulfate radicals (SO(4)(-)) exhibits a potential for destroying organic contaminants in wastewater treatment applications. This study investigated both the feasibility of using a UV/SPS (sodium persulfate) process to treat phenol in aqueous

Mediated by sodium persulfate (Na(2)S(2)O(8)), a series of polysubstituted 4-pyridones were synthesized via self-condensation of N-aryl acetoacetamides, during which a novel N to C 1,3-acyl migration should be involved. The structure of 4-pyridone was unequivocally confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis.
