Abstract
It is widely considered that photocatalysis is an effective and eco-friendly method of dealing with organic pollutants dissolved in water. Nonetheless, photocatalysts still have some drawbacks, such as poor visible-light absorption, easy recombination of photogenerated charge carriers, and limited active sites. In this study, bismuth ferrite coupled with biochar material (BiFeO3/BC) was simply synthesized, and its photocatalysis reactivity was systemically examined under an irradiation of λ > 400 nm. The experimental results showed that under a relatively acidic environment, the removal rate of tetracycline hydrochloride reached 95%. Using a variety of characterization investigations, we analyzed the morphology structure and chemical composition of BiFeO3/BC. In consideration of simple preparation and high respondence toward visible light, further explorations of BiFeO3/BC and its properties and optimized degradation conditions are worthwhile.

Abstract
Herein, novel Fe-biochar composites (MBCBM500 and MBCBM700) were synthesized through K2FeO4 co-pyrolysis and ball milling, and were used to eliminate Cr(VI)/TC from water. Characterization results revealed that higher temperature promoted formation of zero-valent iron and Fe3C on MBCBM700 through carbothermal reduction between K2FeO4 and biochar. The higher specific surface area and smaller particle size of MBCBM500/700 stemmed from the corrosive functions of K and the ball milling process. And the maximal uptake amount of MBCBM700 for Cr(VI)/TC was 117.49/90.31 mg/g, relatively higher than that of MBCBM500 (93.86/84.15 mg/g). Furthermore, ion exchange, pore filling, precipitation, complexation, reduction and electrostatic attraction were proved to facilitate the adsorption of Cr(VI), while hydrogen bonding force, pore filling, complexation and π-π stacking were the primary pathways to eliminate TC. This study provide a reasonable design of Fe-carbon materials for Cr(VI)/TC contained water remediation, which required neither extra modifiers nor complex preparation process.

Abstract
With the accelerated industrialization, more and more sewage sludge (SS) needs to be treated properly. The conversion of sludge into harmless biochar material with dual utilization value of adsorption and catalysis by pyrolysis is in line with the concept of sustainable development. However, the reaction mechanisms of pristine sludge biochar (SDBC) and its composites (SDBCs) in adsorption, persulfate (PS), and Fenton-like advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are very closely related to its adsorption performance and catalytic efficiency. In this paper, from the application mechanisms of SDBC in adsorption and AOPs, we review in detail the common methods for synthesizing SDBC and their characteristics. We discuss the synthesis techniques that affect the structural, chemical, and catalytic properties of SDBC, including gasification, pyrolysis, and hydrothermal carbonation (HTC). The pyrolysis temperature, environmental factors, and sludge characteristics have important effects on the properties of SDBC, leading to different mechanisms in adsorption and catalytic processes. Furthermore, this paper systematically generalizes the mechanisms of SDBCs in adsorption, where π-π interactions and electrostatic attractions are the main adsorption mechanisms. Then, activation mechanisms of SDBCs in PS and Fenton-like AOPs systems are discussed, including free radical pathways and non-free radical pathways. Finally, we present several challenges and perspectives for the application of SDBC and SDBCs in the field of adsorption, PS, and Fenton-like AOPs from the mechanistic point of views.

High microwave responsivity Co-Bi 25FeO 40 in synergistic activation of peroxydisulfate for high efficiency pollutants degradation and disinfection: Mechanism of enhanced electron transfer. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 288:132558. [PMID: 34662639 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2021.132558] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2021] [Revised: 09/29/2021] [Accepted: 10/11/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Cobalt doped Bi25FeO40 was used as a heterogeneous catalyst in microwave (MW) co-activation of peroxydisulfate (PDS) system for organic contaminant purification and disinfection simultaneously. Due to low charge-transfer resistance and fast electron migration, Co-Bi25FeO40 showed superior catalytic efficiencies for activation PDS to degrade over 92.0% of bisphenol A (BPA) with the initial concentrations ranging from 40 mg/L to 120 mg/L in 5.0 min. The non-radical oxidation pathway via electron transfer regime on the surface of Co-Bi25FeO40 was the dominant reactive species in the reaction system. Benefit from the energy transfer and cross-coupling reactions of microwave, the Co-Bi25FeO40/MW/PDS system can generate abundant reactive sites to facilitate the formation of more surface-bonding complexes. Microwave energy can be absorbed by Co-Bi25FeO40 catalysts to promote activation of PDS and production of nanobubbles. The generated nanobubbles increase the temperature of the local solution to promote the reaction. The Co-Bi25FeO40/MW/PDS system also exhibited excellent bactericidal capability for Escherichia coli (E.coli). The catalysts, oxidants and microwaves acted on E. coli to form physical, and oxidative pressure simultaneously, causing cell damaged and made bacterial death. This work provides prospects toward high-efficiency integration of contaminant purification and pathogenic microorganisms inactivation.

Abstract
Ca-based magnetic bamboo-derived hydrochar described as Ca-MBHC was synthesized by one-pot pyrolysis, and was applied to remediation of lead (Pb) and tetracycline (TC) polluted water. Characterizations not only attested the loading of CaCO3 and Fe0 onto the hydrochar, but also demonstrated the magnetism of Ca-MBHC. Adsorption kinetic experiments showed that the Ca-MBHC could eliminate Pb(II) and TC during a wide range of pH, and appeared rapid uptake equilibrium within 240 and 60 min for Pb(II) and TC, severally. Adsorption isotherm experiments showed that the Ca-MBHC possessed highest adsorption of 475.58 mg/g concerning Pb(II), and heterogeneous uptake of 142.44 mg/g for TC. Furthermore, the Ca-MBHC could achieve Pb(II) binding owing to complexation, reduction, ion exchange and electrostatic attraction, whereas the TC uptake might be related to π-π stacking reciprocities, pore filling and hydrogen bonding. Overall, the Ca-MBHC could be viewed as an excellent adsorbent for scavenging Pb(II) and tetracycline from water.

Magnetic porous biochar with high specific surface area derived from microwave-assisted hydrothermal and pyrolysis treatments of water hyacinth for Cr(Ⅵ) and tetracycline adsorption from water. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2021; 340:125692. [PMID: 34358982 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2021.125692] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2021] [Revised: 07/23/2021] [Accepted: 07/27/2021] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
Magnetic porous water hyacinth-derived biochar (MPBCMW3) was synthesized via two-step Microwave (MW)-assisted processes. Characterization results not only testified high specific surface area (2097.50 m2/g) of the MPBCMW3 assisted by MW-assisted pyrolysis, but also revealed its favorable magnetism derived from MW-assisted hydrothermal process. The MPBCMW3 possessed pH-dependent monolayer adsorption capacities of 202.61 and 202.62 mg/g for Cr(VI) and TC with quick attainments of uptake equilibrium within 150 and 200 min. Moreover, the Cr(VI) and TC uptake were substantially steady under the interference from multifarious co-existing ions with slight decline after three adsorption-desorption cycles. Furthermore, the MPBCMW3 was demonstrated to achieve excellent Cr(VI) binding primarily through complexation, electrostatic interaction, reduction and ion exchange, while presenting outstanding TC removal via pore filling, π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding force, electrostatic interaction and complexation. All these findings suggested the MPBCMW3 synthesized by MW-assisted processes as an excellent adsorbent for purification of Cr(VI) and TC-contaminated water.

Removal of Cd(Ⅱ) and anthracene from water by β-cyclodextrin functionalized magnetic hydrochar: Performance, mechanism and recovery. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2021; 337:125428.

Abstract
Magnetic hydrochar modified by β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) described as β-CD@MHC was successfully synthesized and applied to simultaneous removal of cadmium (Cd) and anthracene (ANT). Characterizations attested the grafting of β-CD groups onto β-CD@MHC with excellent magnetism. Moreover, the β-CD@MHC could eliminate Cd(II) and ANT during an extensive pH scope, and presented fast adsorption equilibrium in 60 min and 80 min for Cd(II) and ANT, respectively. And the β-CD@MHC possessed prominent adsorption properties with maximum monolayer binding of 47.28 mg/g for Cd(II), and corresponding heterogeneous uptake of 60.27 mg/g concerning ANT. Furthermore, the β-CD@MHC could effectively avoid the competitive behavior between Cd(II) and ANT mainly due to complexation and electrostatic attraction effects for capturing Cd(II), and host-guest interaction in the removal of ANT. Additionally, the binding of Cd(II) and ANT onto β-CD@MHC dropped slightly after stepwise desorption, suggesting the β-CD@MHC as a high-performance adsorbent for heavy metals and PAHs elimination from wastewater.

Abstract
Based on the multi-functional magnetic sludge-derived biochar (MSBC), an innovative integrated process-coupling accumulation by adsorbing, degradation by microwave (MW)-induced catalytic oxidation in the presence of H2O2 and the regeneration of adsorbent simultaneously, was proposed. In this study, bisphenol S (4,4'-sulfonyldiphenol) was chosen as the pollutant model, its behaviors and related mechanism of BPS and MSBC in MW + H2O2 system were investigated. The BPS effective degradation on MSBC was proved by decoupling the adsorption and degradation with solvent extraction. OH and h+ play vital roles based on the scavenger tests. The synergistic effects of hot-spot of microwave irradiation, activation of H2O2, and charge transfer-induced doping effects of MSBC were attributed to the reactions. This work proves the feasibility in economics and energy-save treatment approach for low concentration organic pollutants in water.
