Abstract
- Removal of endosulfan was studied by UV-C and UV-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs).
- Among UV/S2O82â, UV/HSO5â, and UV/H2O2, endosulfan was removed the most efficiently by UV/S2O82â.
- Hydroxyl and/or sulfate radicals were involved in the destruction of endosulfan and its by-products.
- Presence of natural organic matter or alcohol inhibited the removal of endosulfan and its by-products.
- Degradation pathways were proposed based on the nature of endosulfan degradation intermediates.
