Environ. Sci.: Water Res. Technol., 2024, 10,982-994DOI: 10.1039/D3EW00838J, PaperWebber Wei-Po Lai, Fang-Yi Gu, Wan-Lun Tai, Zih-Syuan TangThe UV-activated peracetic acid process (UV/PAA) exhibited efficient degradation and detoxification of benzotriazole (BT) and benzothiazole (BTH). Detailed mechanistic insights into the UV/PAA degradation of BT and BTH have
