Enhance removal of hospital wastewater-contaminated antibiotics by H2O2/S2O8 2- /ZVI process

The study indicates efficiency of antibiotics: Amoxicillin (AMX) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) removal in hospital wastewater using H2O2/S2O8 2- /ZVI process. Application of Box – Behnken design was to determine the experiment's effects on COD removal. Effect of pH, H2O2, S2O8 2- , ZVI and reaction time as independent variables in batch oxidation experiments, namely quadratic response.
