Talk:Advanced oxidation process

Merger proposal
I propose merging Humid oxidation with peroxide into Advanced oxidation process. The former article has no sources and its limited content can easily be incorporated here without causing any article-size or weighting problems. This suggestion was first made by in a Teahouse thread WP:Teahouse. Mike Turnbull (talk) 10:44, 9 May 2023 (UTC)


 * The only information in Humid oxidation with peroxide I could find that wasn't already covered in Advanced oxidation process was "The OHP reaction is carried out in the acidic medium and mild condition of temperature (100-150 degrees Celsius) and pressure (2-4 bar) [...] ,using optimized catalyst and hydrogen peroxide formulations." The information about the temperature and the pressure aligns with the information I found on Science Direct, stating "AOPs have been defined as “near ambient temperature and pressure water treatment processes involving the generation of hydroxyl radicals in sufficient quantity to affect water purification.”". The acidic medium, specifically regarding the Fenton reaction, is confrimed by another Science Direct article, "However, there are some drawbacks such as high sludge production, iron leaching, acidic pH, etc."
 * If anyone has any other information they feel are important, feel free to add this, either to this discussing or directly in the article. BabyTree69 (talk) 14:35, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Please go ahead and add that information plus anything else from our Teahouse thread from new sources. I'll complete the formalities of the merger. Mike Turnbull (talk) 15:54, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
