Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are increasingly recognized as green and highly efficient technologies, as their chemical nature allows reactions to be precisely controlled and tailored to specific treatment objectives. Their strong oxidation capacity enables the effective removal of various contaminants, often achieving high treatment efficiencies. Although AOPs have traditionally been regarded as emerging technologies with limited industrial application due to their perceived high costs, this view is not universally valid. In many cases, both capital and operating costs can be competitive when these technologies are properly designed and optimized. Their relative simplicity, with the appropriate selection of materials, reactors, and operating conditions, can make AOPs attractive from both technical and economic perspectives. Operating costs, mainly associated with energy and chemical consumption, depend strongly on geographical location and resource availability. Moreover, process optimization, hybridization, and integration within circular economy frameworks can significantly reduce costs while enhancing sustainability through water reuse, resource recovery, and energy efficiency. AOPs can be applied as standalone technologies or integrated into hybrid treatment schemes combining biological, membrane, or adsorption processes. In wastewater treatment, they may act as main treatments, pretreatment steps, or final polishing stages to meet regulatory requirements.

With the third volume of this Topic, we aim to present a multidisciplinary platform across Catalysts, Processes, Sci, Water, and Encyclopedia, aiming to advance knowledge on integrated systems, scale-up strategies, and future applications of advanced oxidation processes.
