Samenvatting:The suitability of Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) for pollutantdegradation was recognised in the early 1970s and much research anddevelopment work has been undertaken to commercialise some of theseprocesses.AOPs have shown great potential in treating pollutants at both low andhigh concentrations and have found applications as diverse as groundwater treatment, municipal wastewater sludge destruction and VOCscontrol.Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water and Wastewater Treatment is anoverview of the advanced oxidation processes currently used or proposedfor the remediation of water, wastewater, odours and sludge.The book contains two opening chapters which present introductions toadvanced oxidation processes and a background to UV photolysis, sevenchapters focusing on individual advanced oxidation processes and,finally, three chapters concentrating on selected applications ofadvanced oxidation processes.Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water and Wastewater Treatment will beinvaluable to readers interested in water and wastewater treatmentprocesses, including professionals and suppliers, as well as students andacademics studying in this area.Dr Simon Parsons is a Senior Lecturer in Water Sciences at CranfieldUniversity with ten years' experience of industrial and academic researchand development.

Pharmaceuticals represent an especially worrying class of micropollutants because they are biologically active. Thus, their occurrence in aquatic environments may cause undesirable effects in living organisms and, if present in water sources for human consumption, may constitute a public health issue. However, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), which have not been designed for the removal of pharmaceuticals and cannot guarantee their full elimination, are considered hotspots for their dissemination in natural waters. In this context, the Special Issue (SI) entitled “Removal of Pharmaceuticals from Water: Conventional and Alternative Treatments” was launched to contribute to the assessment of the contemporary challenges and advances in the removal of pharmaceuticals from wastewater. Papers published in the SI, which have been compiled in this book, approached the topic with either of the following different perspectives: (i) the fate and removal of pharmaceuticals by conventional treatments applied in existing WWTPs; or (ii) advanced and alternative green approaches to remove pharmaceuticals from water. Apart from the Editorial, papers published within this SI include two literature reviews and six experimental studies, all of them presenting unconventional approaches, original views, innovative research and/or novel methodologies. This compilation will definitely spark the attention of readers intrigued in the topic, and is useful for researchers in the field.

With the increasing global usage of water and the continuous addition of contaminants to water sources, new challenges have arisen that are associated with the abatement of organic pollutants, particularly those that are refractory to conventional water and wastewater treatment technologies. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) present a competitive alternative to promote the oxidation of organic contaminants by strong oxidative radicals generated from oxygen, ozone, wet peroxide, and UV radiation. The use of catalysts not only improves efficiency but may present remarkable cost advantages for practical applications of AOPs in the abatement of several pollutants. In this Special Issue of Catalysts, we invite authors to submit original research papers focused on the synthesis and characterization of novel heterogeneous catalysts and their uses in advanced oxidation processes for the removal of organic pollutants from aqueous solutions.
