Minghua studies methods to mineralise organic pollutants by advanced oxidation processes such as photocatalysis, ozonation, wet air oxidation, and electrochemical oxidation. These methods can break down the organic pollutants in wastewater into biodegradable ones or even further to a level where all that is left are water and carbon dioxide. These technologies are very efficient and environmentally sound. more: Minghua ZHOU.
