Among various techniques for removing antibiotics from wastewater, H_(2)O_(2)-based advanced oxidation processes(AOPs) have received increasing attention due to their fast reaction rate and strong oxidation capability. Hence this review critically discusses:(i) Recent research progress of AOPs with the addition of H_(2)O_(2) for antibiotics removal through different methods of H_(2)O_(2) activation;(ii) recent advances in AOPs that can in-situ generate and activate H_(2)O_(2) for antibiotics removal;(iii) H_(2)O_(2)-based AOPs as a combination with other techniques for the degradation and mineralization of antibiotics in wastewater. Future perspectives about H_(2)O_(2)-based AOPs are also presented to grasp the future research trend in the area.展开更多
