    Abstract:
    Sulfate radical (SO4•-) based advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs) is a very important chemical oxidation technology for the degradation of recalcitrant organic pollutants in water and has been well developed. Recently, transition metals or their oxides-modified biochar has been widely used as the catalyst to catalyze peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and peroxydisulfate (PS) in SR-AOPs due to their outstanding properties (e.g., large surface area, high stability, abound catalytic sites, and diversity of material design, etc.). These composite materials not only combine the respective beneficial characteristics of biochar and transition metals (or their oxides) but also often present synergistic effects between the components. In this review, we present the synthesis of different types of transition metal (or metal oxides)/biochar-based catalysts and their application in SR-AOPs. The catalytic mechanism, including the generation process of free radicals and other reaction pathways on the surface of the catalyst were also carefully discussed. Particular attention has been paid to the synergistic effects between the components that result in enhanced catalytic performance. At the end of this review, the future development prospects of this technology are proposed.
