Résumé

The increasing global water demand has prompted the reuse of treated wastewater. However, the persistence of organic micropollutants in inefficiently treated effluents can have detrimental effects depending on the scope of the reclaimed water usage. One example is the presence of sulfamethoxazole, a widely used antibiotic whose interference with the folate synthesis pathway negatively affects plants and microorganisms. The goal of this study is to assess the suitability of a non-thermal plasma-ozonation technique for the removal of the organic pollutant and reduction of its herbicidal effect. Fast sulfamethoxazole degradation was achieved with apparent reaction rate constants in the range 0.21-0.49 min
