Degradation of organic contaminants in the CoFe2O4/peroxymonosulfate process: The overlooked role of Co(II)-PMS complex

Cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) has been widely employed as a catalyst for the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS), in which hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and sulfate radicals (SO4•−) are generally recognized as the main reactive species responsible for the degradation of pollutants. In this study, we find tha...
