Emerging contaminants (ECs) in wastewater threaten environmental and human health, while conventional methods often prove inadequate. This has driven increased concern among decision makers, justifying the need for innovative effective treatment approaches. Pyrite-derived materials have attracted great interest advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) as catalysts because of their unique Fe-S structure, ability to undergo redox cycling, friendliness. review explores recent advances pyrite-derived AOP applications, focusing on synthesis, catalytic mechanisms, pollutant degradation. It examines how pyrite activates oxidants such hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), peracetic acid (PAA), peroxymonosulfate (PMS) can be used generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). The role multi-dimensional architectures (0D–3D) enhancing charge transfer, activity, recyclability is also discussed. Key challenges, including catalyst stability, industrial scalability, Fe/S leaching, are addressed alongside potential solutions. Future directions include integration pyrite-based with hybrid materials, well green synthesis improve practical applications. provides researchers engineers valuable insights into developing sustainable technologies.
