Abstract:
Marine pollution has a deleterious impact, both on the conditions of the ecosystem and the biodiversity of the ocean. Researchers in the field of marine chemistry have been putting effort into the creation of efficient catalysts for the purification of seawater. There has been extensive research done on membrane technology for the activation of peroxymonosulfate, which is an extremely effective therapy for saltwater. The sediment of QX03, which was obtained from the western coast of Bohai, is located very close to the modern coastline. The uppermost 15 m of this sector were thoroughly analyzed in sedimentary petrology, grain size, shell, and sediment chroma dating to reconstruct the sedimentary environment and relative sea-level during the time period of 44.80 ka cal BP. This indicates that a sea-retreating and retreating process has taken place; VI (5.2-0 m), Terrestrial deposition, is separated into swamp wetlands (VI-1) and flood plain (VI-2). The changes in sedimentary levels had a fairly strong correlation with the changes in sea level. Within the scope of this study, we conducted an in-depth investigation of the innovative membrane technology for the treatment of seawater by means of aqueous phase advanced oxidation close to the Bohai. The results of this study present a prospective technique that could make it possible to use membrane technology in the process of environmental restoration in marine settings.
