Persulfate (PS) is widely used as an in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) technology for groundwater and soil remediation. While conventional theory generally assumes that PS needs to be “activated” to produce reactive radicals for pollutant degradation, herein, PS without explicit activation system wa...
