Article Synopsis
- Peracetic acid (PAA) based Fenton processes are gaining interest for water treatment but face challenges due to inefficient Fe redox cycles.
- Incorporating L-cysteine (L-Cys) significantly improves sulfamethoxazole (SMX) degradation rates and shifts the reaction pathway from a nonradical to a radical mechanism by enhancing iron solubilization.
- The study reveals that while L-Cys boosts SMX removal, excessive amounts or high pH can hinder effectiveness, providing critical insights for improving antibiotic treatment in water systems.
