Abstract

This review focuses on a critical analysis of nanocatalysts for advanced reductive processes (ARPs) and oxidation processes (AOPs) designed for the degradation of poly/perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in water. Ozone, ultraviolet and photocatalyzed ARPs and/or AOPs are the basic treatment technologies. Besides the review of the nanomaterials with greater potential as catalysts for advanced processes of PFAS in water, the perspectives for their future development, considering sustainability, are discussed. Moreover, a brief analysis of the current state of the art of ARPs and AOPs for the treatment of PFAS in water is presented.
