“…In addition, leaching of CAF or desorption cannot be completely ignored. Previously, an initial increase of toxicity was observed in the electrochemical oxidation of CAF using the graphite-PVC composite which was later decreased with further prolongation of treatment times [6]. This indicates that the prolonged photodegradation time of CAF over CaTaO2N crystals may eventually decrease toxicity similar to that reported by [13].…”

“…Caffeine (CAF) (C8H10N4O2), an alkaloid belonging to the methylxanthine family [6], is an example of PPCPs that is often detected in surface waters (pKa 10.4, LogKow -0.007, LogKd 2.3) [7,8]. CAF is present in cola drinks, coffee, tea, energy drinks, and drugs and acts as a psychomotor stimulant [9].…”

“…Having regard to these results, EOP is an effective method for further removal of caffeine from effluent from aerobic or anaerobic reactors that treat municipal wastewater, even though a high concentration of caffeine was used compared to low concentration in natural water. Compared to conventional methods for removing caffeine from urban wastewater, this approach appears to be more feasible for the following reasons: ease of operating, rapid removal of caffeine, and the effective efficiency of treatment [110]. The caffeine elimination obtained in real wastewater was found to be higher than in synthetic wastewater due to the contribution of electrogenerated oxidant species, such as hypochlorite [113], when sulfonamides and DEET removal were most efficient in the presence of municipal wastewater treatment plant (MWWTP) effluents [52,102].…”

“…Moreover, this chemical substance posing high solubility and slow rate of degradation, lead to be more persistent in aquatic environments [10]. However, Al-Qaim et al reported that caffeine can be removed by electrochemical degradation using graphite-poly vinyl chloride as anode as well its by-products which are formed during treatment process [11].…”
