The first step consists in diminishing the organic content through an advanced oxidation process using ozone and hydrogen peroxide. The second step is performed in order to diminish the content of heavy metals through a sorption process on a natural low-cost biosorbent, thus the traces of organic substances remained after oxidative degradation or oxida...

We analyzed the spatial and temporal variability of O3 and its precursors and the roles of the precursors in O3 formation. The results suggest that O3 mixing ratios are higher in rural areas than in urban areas. Highest mixing ratios of VOCs were alkanes, followed by aromatics; alkenes and biogenics were present at lower mixing ratios. Because of their relatively high reactivities, ar...
