Journal of hazardous materials.J Hazard Mater.2016 Feb 13;303:111-8. doi: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2015.10.011. Epub 2015 Oct 22.
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA, C7H15COOH) is widely used in industrial and commercial applications. It has become a global concern due to its widespread occurrence in water bodies and adverse environmental impact. PFOA could not be effectively removed by the conventional UV/TiO2 system. This study sy
