Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are finding key treatment niches in several applications, including groundwater remediation, water reuse, seasonal taste and odor control, and organic contaminant oxidation. AOPs are incorporated into a water treatment process train when traditional methods for the removal of organics such as coagulation, filtration, chemical oxidation, or ultraviolet (UV) photolysis alone are insufficient to remove specific contaminants.
