Abstract
Direct recycling is considered to be the next-generation recycling technology for spent lithium-ion batteries due to its potential economic benefits and environmental friendliness. For the spent layered oxide cathode materials, an irreversible phase transition to a rock-salt structure near the particle surface impedes the reintercalation of lithium ions, thereby hindering the lithium compensation process from fully restoring composition defects and repairing failed structures. We introduced a transition-metal hydroxide precursor, utilizing its surface catalytic activity produced during annealing to convert the rock-salt structure into a layered structure that provides fast migration pathways for lithium ions. The material repair and synthesis processes share the same heating program, enabling the spent cathode and added precursor to undergo a topological transformation to form the targeted layered oxide. This regenerated material exhibits a performance superior to that of commercial cathodes and maintains 88.4% of its initial capacity after 1000 cycles in a 1.3 Ah pouch cell. Techno-economic analysis highlights the environmental and economic advantages of surface catalytic repair over pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical methods, indicating its potential for practical application.

Abstract
Herein, a novel copper selenide/zinc selenide/Nitrogen-doped carbon (Cu2Se/ZnSe/NC) sphere was constructed via a combination of cation exchange, selenization and carbonization approaches with zinc-based metal-organic frameworks (ZIF-8) as precursor for sulfadiazine (SDZ) removal. Compared with the ZnSe/NC, the defective Cu2Se/ZnSe interface in the optimizing Cu-ZnSe/NC2 sample caused a remarkably improved adsorption performance. Notably, the adsorption capacity of 129.32 mg/g was better than that of mostly reported adsorbents for SDZ. And the adsorption referred to multiple-layer physical-chemical process that was spontaneous and exothermic. Besides, the Cu-ZnSe/NC2 displayed fast adsorption equilibrium of about 20 min and significant anti-interference ability for inorganic ions. Specially, the adsorbent possessed excellent stability and reusability, which could also be applied for rhodamine B (RhB), methylene blue (MB), and methyl orange (MO) dyes removal. Ultimately, the charge redistribution of Cu2Se/ZnSe interface greatly contributes the superior adsorption performance for SDZ, in which electrostatic attraction occupied extremely crucial status as compared to π-π electron-donor-acceptor (π-π EDA) interaction and hydrogen bonding (H-bonding), as revealed by the density function theory (DFT) calculations and experimental results. This study can provide a guideline for design of high-efficient adsorbent with interfacial charge redistribution.

Abstract
A novel UV/oxalic acid functionalized corn straw biochar (OCBC)/peroxyacetic acid (PAA) system was built to degrade sulfadiazine from waters. 94.7 % of SDZ was removed within 30 min by UV/OCBC/PAA. The abundant surface functional groups and persistent free radicals (PFRs) on OCBC were responsible for these performances. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and other characterization analysis revealed, under UV irradiation, the addition of OCBC served as electron donor, which might promote the reaction of electrons with PAA. The quenching and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) tests indicated that R-O•, 1O2 and •OH were generated. Theoretical calculations indicated sulfonamide bridge was vulnerable under the attacks of reactive species. In addition, high removal effect achieved by 5 reuse cycles and different real waters also suggested the sustainability of UV/OCBC/PAA. Overall, this study provided a feasible approach to remove SDZ with high mineralization efficiency, in addition to a potential strategy for resource utilization of corn straw.

Abstract
The contamination of water bodies by synthetic organic compounds coupled with climate change and the growing demand for water supply calls for new approaches to water management and treatment. To tackle the decontamination issue, the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) using copper magnetic ferrite (CuMF) nanoparticles prepared under distinct synthesis conditions was assessed to oxidize imidacloprid (IMD) insecticide. After optimization of some operational variables, such as CuMF load (62.5-250 mg L-1), PMS concentration (250-1000 μM), and solution pH (3-10), IMD was completely oxidized in 2 h without interferences from leached metal ions. Such performance was also achieved when using tap water but was inhibited by a simulated municipal wastewater due to scavenging effects promoted by inorganic and organic species. Although there was evidence of the presence of sulfate radicals and singlet oxygen oxidizing species, only four intermediate compounds were detected by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry analysis, mainly due to hydroxyl addition reactions. Concerning the changes in surface properties of CuMF after use, no morphological or structural changes were observed except a small increase in the charge transfer resistance. Based on the changes of terminal surface groups, PMS activation occurred on Fe sites.

Abstract
Extracting functional materials from industrial waste residues to absorb organic dyes can maximize waste reuse and minimize water pollution. However, the extraordinarily low purification efficiency still limits the practical application of this strategy. Herein, the lamellar NiOOH is in-situ anchored on the industrial waste red mud surface (ARM/NiOOH) as an adsorbent to purify organic dyes in wastewater. ARM/NiOOH adsorbent with high specific surface area and porosity provides considerable active sites for the congo red (CR), thereby significantly enhancing the removal efficiency of CR. Besides, we fit a reasonable adsorption model for ARM/NiOOH adsorbent and investigate its adsorption kinetics. Resultantly, ARM/NiOOH adsorbent can remarkably adsorb 348.0 mg g-1 CR within 5 min, which is 7.91 times that of raw RM. Our work provides a strategy for reusing industrial waste and purifying sewage pollution, which advances wastewater treatment engineering.

Abstract
Fly ash, a type of solid waste generated in power plants, can be utilized as a catalyst carrier to enhance its value-added potential. Common methods often involve using a large amount of alkali for preprocessing, resulting in stable quartz and mullite forming silicate dissolution. This leads to an increased specific surface area and pore structure. In this study, we produced a catalyst composed of MnOx/NiOOH supported on fly ash by directly employing nickel hydroxide and potassium permanganate to generate metal active sites over the fly ash surface while simultaneously creating a larger specific surface area and pore structure. The ozone catalytic oxidation performance of this catalyst was evaluated using sodium acetate as the target organic matter. The experimental results demonstrated that an optimal removal efficiency of 57.5% for sodium acetate was achieved, surpassing even that of MnOx/NiOOH supported catalyst by using γ-Al2O3. After loading of MnOx/NiOOH, an oxygen vacancy is formed on the surface of fly ash, which plays an indirect oxidation effect on sodium acetate due to the transformation of ozone to •O2- and •OH over this oxygen vacancy. The reaction process parameters, including varying concentrations of ozone, sodium acetate, and catalyst dosage, as well as pH value and the quantitative analysis of formed free radicals, were examined in detail. This work demonstrated that fly ash could be used as a viable catalytic material for wastewater treatment and provided a new solution to the added value of fly ash.

Abstract
Spatially-ordered 1D nanocrystal-based semiconductor nanostructures possess distinct merits for photocatalytic reaction, including large surface area, fast carrier separation, and enhanced light scattering and absorption. Nevertheless, establishing a valid photo-carrier transmission channel is still crucial yet challenging for semiconductor heterostructures to realize efficient photocatalysis. In this work, spatially ordered NiOOH-ZnS/CdS heterostructures were constructed by sequential ZnS coating and NiOOH photo-deposition on multi-armed CdS, which consists of {112̄0}-faceted wurtzite nanorods grown epitaxially on {111}-faceted zinc blende core. Intriguingly, the surface photovoltage spectroscopy and PbO2 photo-deposition results suggest that the photogenerated holes of CdS were first transferred to the Zn-vacancy level of ZnS and then to NiOOH, as driven by the built-in electric field between ZnS and CdS and the hole-extracting effect of the NiOOH cocatalyst, leading to the efficient charge separation of NiOOH-ZnS/CdS. With visible-light (λ > 420 nm) irradiation, NiOOH-ZnS/CdS exhibited a distinguished H2-evolution rate of 152.20 mmol g-1 h-1 (apparent quantum efficiency of 40.9% at 420 nm), approximately 18 folds that of 3 wt% Pt-loaded CdS and much higher than that of ZnS/CdS and NiOOH-CdS counterparts as well as the most reported CdS-containing photocatalysts. Moreover, the cycling and long-term H2 generation tests manifested the outstanding photocatalyst stability of NiOOH-ZnS/CdS. The study results presented here may propel the controllable design of highly-active nanomaterials for solar conversion and utilization.

[PMID: 38401473 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121353] [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: 11/25/2023] [Revised: 02/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 02/26/2024]
Abstract
Ozonation of wastewater containing bromide (Br-) forms highly toxic organic bromine. The effectiveness of ozonation in mitigating wastewater toxicity is minimal. Simultaneous application of ozone (O3) (5 mg/L) and ferrate(VI) (Fe(VI)) (10 mg-Fe/L) reduced cytotoxicity and genotoxicity towards mammalian cells by 39.8% and 71.1% (pH 7.0), respectively, when the wastewater has low levels of Br-. This enhanced reduction in toxicity can be attributed to increased production of reactive iron species Fe(IV)/Fe(V) and reactive oxygen species (•OH) that possess higher oxidizing ability. When wastewater contains 2 mg/L Br-, ozonation increased cytotoxicity and genotoxicity by 168%-180% and 150%-155%, respectively, primarily due to the formation of organic bromine. However, O3/Fe(VI) significantly (p < 0.05) suppressed both total organic bromine (TOBr), BrO3-, as well as their associated toxicity. Electron donating capacity (EDC) measurement and precursor inference using Orbitrap ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry found that Fe(IV)/Fe(V) and •OH enhanced EDC removal from precursors present in wastewater, inhibiting electrophilic substitution and electrophilic addition reactions that lead to organic bromine formation. Additionally, HOBr quenched by self-decomposition-produced H2O2 from Fe(VI) also inhibits TOBr formation along with its associated toxicity. The adsorption of Fe(III) flocs resulting from Fe(VI) decomposition contributes only minimally to reducing toxicity. Compared to ozonation alone, integration of Fe(VI) with O3 offers improved safety for treating wastewater with varying concentrations of Br-.

Abstract
Nanometric cobalt magnetic ferrite (CoFe2O4) synthesized by distinct methods was used for in situ chemical activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) under neutral conditions to oxidize imidacloprid (IMD) insecticide. The effect of CoFe2O4 load (0.125-1.0 g L-1) and PMS concentration (250-1000 μM) was investigated as well as the influence of phosphate buffer and Co(II) ions. PMS activation by Co(II) ions, including those leached from CoFe2O4 (>50 μg L-1), exhibited a strong influence on IMD oxidation and, apparently, without substantial contributions from the solid phase. Within the prepared solid materials (i.e., using sol-gel and co-precipitation methods), high oxidation rates (ca. 0.5 min-1) of IMD were attained in ultrapure water. Phosphate buffer had no significant influence on the IMD oxidation rate and level, however, its use and solution pH have shown to be important parameters, since higher PMS consumption was observed in the presence of buffered solutions at pH 7. IMD byproducts resulting from hydroxylation reactions and rupture of the imidazolidine ring were detected by mass spectrometry. At optimum conditions (0.125 g L-1 of CoFe2O4 and 500 μM of PMS), the CoFe2O4 nanoparticles exhibited an increase in the charge transfer resistance and an enhancement in the surface hydroxylation after PMS activation, which led to radical (HO● and SO4●-) and nonradical (1O2) species. The latter specie led to high levels of IMD oxidation, even in a complex water matrix, such as simulated municipal wastewater at the expense of one-order decrease in the IMD oxidation rate.

CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 351:141153. [PMID: 38219991 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141153] [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: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/06/2024] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
The widespread use of antibiotics for the treatment of bacteriological diseases causes their accumulation at low concentrations in natural waters. This gives health risks to animals and humans since it can increase the damage of the beneficial bacteria, the control of infectious diseases, and the resistance to bacterial infection. Potent oxidation methods are required to remove these pollutants from water because of their inefficient abatement in municipal wastewater treatment plants. Over the last three years in the period 2021-September 2023, powerful peroxymonosulfate (PMS)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been developed to guaranty the effective removal of antibiotics in synthetic and real waters and wastewater. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of the different procedures proposed to activate PMS-producing strong oxidizing agents like sulfate radical (SO4•-), hydroxyl radical (•OH, radical superoxide ion (O2•-), and non-radical singlet oxygen (1O2) at different proportions depending on the experimental conditions. Iron, non-iron transition metals, biochar, and carbonaceous materials catalytic, UVC, photocatalytic, thermal, electrochemical, and other processes for PMS activation are summarized. The fundamentals and characteristics of these procedures are detailed remarking on their oxidation power to remove antibiotics, the influence of operating variables, the production and detection of radical and non-radical oxidizing agents, the effect of added inorganic anions, natural organic matter, and aqueous matrix, and the identification of by-products formed. Finally, the theoretical and experimental analysis of the change of solution toxicity during the PMS-based AOPs are described.

Abstract
Urea is a problematic pollutant in reclaimed water for ultrapure water (UPW) production. The sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation process (SR-AOP) has been recognized as an effective method for urea degradation. However, conventional metal-based catalysts for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation are unsuitable for UPW production due to issues related to metal ion leaching. In this study, the use of powdered activated carbon (PAC) was investigated for the removal of urea from reclaimed water. The PAC exhibited a high degree of defects (ID/IG = 1.709) and various surface oxygen functional groups (C-OH, C=O, and C-O), which greatly enhanced its catalytic capability. The PAC significantly facilitated PMS activation in the PMS + PAC system, leading to the complete urea decomposition. The PMS + PAC system demonstrated excellent urea removal efficiency within a wide pH range, except for pH < 3. Among the various anions present, the CO32- and PO43- inhibited urea degradation, while the coexistence of Cl- promoted urea removal. Furthermore, the feasibility test was evaluated using actual reclaimed water. The quenching test revealed that SO4-·, ·OH, and O2-· played crucial roles in the degradation of urea in the PAC-assisted SR-AOP. The oxygen functional groups (C-OH and O-C=O) and defect sites of PAC clearly contributed to PMS activation.

WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH : A RESEARCH PUBLICATION OF THE WATER ENVIRONMENT FEDERATION 2024; 96:e10984. [PMID: 38298030 DOI: 10.1002/wer.10984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2023] [Revised: 12/29/2023] [Accepted: 01/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/02/2024]
Abstract
In this study, a highly efficient peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activator, ZnO/ZnMn2 O4 , was synthesized using a simple one-step hydrothermal method. The resulting bimetallic oxide catalyst demonstrated a homogenous and high-purity composition, showcasing synergistic catalytic activity in activating PMS for degrading 2, 4-dichlorophenol (2, 4-DCP) in aqueous solution. This catalytic performance surpassed that of individual ZnO, Mn2 O3 , and ZnMn2 O4 metal materials. Under the optimized conditions, the removal efficiency of 2, 4-DCP reached approximately 86% within 60 min, and the catalytic ability remained almost constant even after four cycles of recycling. The developed degradation system proved effective in degrading other azo-dye pollutants. Certain inorganic anions such as HPO4 - , HCO3 - , and NO3 - significantly inhibited the degradation of 2, 4-DCP, while Cl- and SO4 2- did not exhibit such interference. Results from electrochemical experiments indicated that the electron transfer ability of ZnO/ZnMn2 O4 surpassed that of individual metals, and electron transfer occurred between ZnO/ZnMn2 O4 and the oxidant. The primary active radicals responsible for degrading 2, 4-DCP were identified as SO4 •- , OH• and O2 •- , generated through the oxidation and reduction of PMS catalyzed by Zn (II) and Mn (III). Furthermore, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis of the fresh and used catalysts revealed that the exceptional electron transfer ability of ZnO facilitated the valence transfer of Mn (III) and the transfer of electrons to the catalyst's oxygen surface, thus enhancing the catalytic efficiency. The analysis of radicals and intermediates indicates that the two main pathways for degrading 2, 4-DCP involve hydroxylation and radical attack on its aromatic ring. PRACTITIONER POINTS: A bimetallic ZnO/ZnMn2 O4 catalyst was synthesized and characterized. ZnO/ZnMn2 O4 can synergistically activate PMS to degrade 2, 4-DCP compared with single metal oxide. Three primary active radicals, O2 •- , • OH, and SO4 •- , were generated to promote the degradation. ZnO promoted electron transfer among the three species of Mn to facilitate oxidizing pollutants. Hydroxylation and radical attack on the aromatic ring of 2, 4-DCP are the two degradation pathways.
