Abstract (EN): Over the past few years, heterogeneous catalysis has been recognized as a versatile and efficient approach for applications in environmental remediation systems. The water treatment field is one of the most prominent beneficiaries of these various catalytic processes due to the crucial need to promote water reuse. However, there are still shortcomings related to the efficiency of these processes when applied to increasingly complex water matrices composed of different classes of contaminants. The present review aims to address the advantages associated with the application of catalytic processes and the diverse catalysts for water treatment while exploring how to take advantage of process integration as a solution to address the challenges posed by the growing complexity of environmental matrices.
