Along with the implementation of “The action plan on treatment of emerging pollutants (EPs)”, the control work to EPs has carried on the comprehensive deployment in our country. Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) have attracted wide attention. PPCPs have been detected in various environmental media with a concentration of ppt-ppb level, but the environmental risk should not be underestimated. This paper critically reviews the research status of polymer film optimization and the research hotspots of advanced oxidation technology, as well as the previous research results of our research group, the further research direction is identified. It is proposed to use transition metal nanoparticles loaded onto polyethersulfone membranes and used as supported heterogeneous activation materials to activate persulfate, so as to achieve effective removal of typical PPCPs.
