Abstract:

Environmental persistent free radicals (EPFRs) is a new kind of environmental risk product, which may exist permanently in the environment with paramagnetic stability. This paper introduces the features, formation mechanism and influence factors of EPFRs. It is summarized that EPFRs has stronger environmental sustain ability and toxicity. Potential applications of EPFRs are introduced such as degrading organic matter by EPFRs to activate certain compounds and produce reactive oxygen species.

Key words: harm,  characteristic ,  mechanism , environment persistent free radicals (EPFRs)
