Influence of the anode materials on the electrochemical oxidation efficiency. Application to oxidative degradation of the pharmaceutical amoxicillin (2015, background): “Among these methods, a great attention has been paid to the Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) that are based on the in situ production and the reactivity of a very reactive species, the hydroxyl radical (OH) which is a powerful oxidizing agent [5-10].”
