JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 475:134871. [PMID: 38876020 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134871] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/16/2024]
Abstract
Many studies have shown that Peroxymonosulfate (PMS) works synergistically with ferrate (Fe(VI)) to remove refractory organic compounds in a few minutes. However, little has been reported on the combined effects of peroxydisulfate (PDS) and Fe(VI). Since PDS is stable and cost effective, it is of practical significance to study the reaction mechanism and conditions of the PDS/Fe(VI) system. The results of the study indicate that the intermediate Fe(II) is formed during the decomposition of Fe(VI), which is then rapidly oxidized. Due to the asymmetry of the PMS molecular structure, PMS can rapidly trap Fe(II) (kPMS/Fe(II)= 3 × 104 M-1∙s-1), whereas PDS cannot (kPDS/Fe(II)= 26 M-1∙s-1). Hydroxylamine hydrochloride (HA) can reduce Fe(VI) and Fe(III) to Fe(II) to excite PDS to produce SO4•-. Acetate helps to detect Fe(II), but does not help PDS to trap Fe(II). Active species such as SO4•-, •OH, 1O2, and Fe(IV), Fe(V) are present in both systems, but in different amounts. In the PMS/Fe(Ⅵ) system, all these active species react with ibuprofen (IBP) and degrade IBP within several minutes. The effects of the initial pH, PMS or Fe(VI) dosage, and different amounts of IBP on the removal rate of IBP were investigated. According to the intermediates detected by the GC-MS, the degradation process of IBP includes hydroxylation, demethylation and single bond breakage. The degradation pathways of IBP were proposed. The degradation of IBP in tap water and Songhua River was also investigated. In actual water treatment, the dosage needs to be increased to achieve the same results. This study provides a basis and theoretical support for the application of PMS/Fe(Ⅵ) and PDS/Fe(VI) system in water treatment.

Brillas E, Oliver R. Development of persulfate-based advanced oxidation processes to remove synthetic azo dyes from aqueous matrices. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 355:141766. [PMID: 38527631 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141766] [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: 01/30/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024]
Abstract
Azo dyes are largely used in many industries and discharged in large volumes of their effluents into the aquatic environment giving rise to non-esthetic pollution and health-risk problems. Due to the high stability of azo dyes in ambient conditions, they cannot be abated in conventional wastewater treatment plants. Over the last fifteen years, the decontamination of dyeing effluents by persulfate (PS)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) has received a great attention. In these methods, PS is activated to be decomposed into sulfate radical anion (SO4•-), which is further partially hydrolyzed to hydroxyl radical (•OH). Superoxide ion (O2•-) and singlet oxygen (1O2) can also be produced as oxidants. This review summarizes the results reported for the discoloration and mineralization of synthetic and real waters contaminated with azo dyes covering up to November 2023. PS activation with iron, non-iron transition metals, and carbonaceous materials catalysts, heat, UVC light, photocatalysis, photodegradation with iron, electrochemical and related processes, microwaves, ozonation, ultrasounds, and other processes is detailed and analyzed. The principles and characteristics of each method are explained with special attention to the operating variables, the different oxidizing species generated yielding radical and non-radical mechanisms, the addition of inorganic anions and natural organic matter, the aqueous matrix, and the by-products identified. Finally, the overall loss of toxicity or partial detoxification of treated azo dye solutions during the PS-based AOPs is discussed.

Abstract
FeNbO4 sonocatalysts were successfully synthesized by a simple hydrothermal route at pH values of 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, XPS, TEM, SEM, N2 adsorption and DRS to analyse the effect of pH parameters on the physicochemical properties of the materials during hydrothermal synthesis. The sonocatalytic activity of FeNbO4 microspheres was evaluated by using acid orange 7 (AO7) as the simulated contaminant. The experimental results showed that the best sonocatalytic degradation ratio (97.45%) of organic dyes could be obtained under the conditions of an initial AO7 concentration of 10 mg L-1, an ultrasonic power of 200 W, a catalyst dosage of 1.0 g L-1, and a pH of 3. Moreover, the sonocatalysts demonstrated consistent durability and stability across multiple test cycles. After active species capture experiments and calculation of the energy band, a possible mechanism was proposed based on the special Fenton-like mechanism and the dissociation of H2O2. This research shows that FeNbO4 microspheres can be used as sonocatalysts for the purification of organic wastewater, which has a promising application prospect.

Hydroxylamine enhanced the degradation of diclofenac in Cu(II)/peracetic acid system: Formation and contributions of CH 3C(O)O •, CH 3C(O)OO •, Cu(III) and •OH. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 460:132461. [PMID: 37677972 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.132461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 08/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023]
Abstract
The slow reduction of Cu(II) into Cu(I) through peracetic acid (PAA) heavily limited the widespread application of Cu(II)/PAA system. Herein, hydroxylamine (HA) was proposed to boost the oxidative capacity of Cu(II)/PAA system by facilitating the redox cycle of Cu(I)/Cu(II). HA/Cu(II)/PAA system was quite rapid in the removal of diclofenac within a broad pH range of 4.5-9.5, with a 10-fold increase in the removal rate of diclofenac compared with the Cu(II)/PAA system at an optimal initial pH of 8.5. Results of UV-Vis spectra, electron paramagnetic resonance, and alcohol quenching experiments demonstrated that CH3C(O)O•, CH3C(O)OO•, Cu(III), and •OH were involved in HA/Cu(II)/PAA system, while CH3C(O)OO• was verified as the predominant reactive species of diclofenac elimination. Different from previously reported Cu-catalyzed PAA processes, CH3C(O)OO• mainly generated from the reaction of PAA with Cu(III) rather than CH3C(O)O• and •OH. Four possible elimination pathways for diclofenac were proposed, and the acute toxicity of treated diclofenac solution with HA/Cu(II)/PAA system significantly decreased. Moreover, HA/Cu(II)/PAA system possessed a strong anti-interference ability towards the commonly existent water matrix. This research proposed an effective strategy to boost the oxidative capacity of Cu(II)/PAA system and might promote its potential application, especially in copper-contained wastewater.

Abstract
Mn2O3 as a typical Mn based semiconductor has attracted growing attention due to its peculiar 3d electron structure and stability, and the multi-valence Mn on the surface is the key to peroxydisulfate activation. Herein, an octahedral structure of Mn2O3 with (111) exposed facet was synthesized by a hydrothermal method, which was further sulfureted to obtained a variable-valent Mn oxide for the high activation efficiency of peroxydisulfate under the light emitting diode irradiation. The degradation experiments showed that under the irradiation of 420 nm light, S modified manganese oxide showed an excellent removal for tetracycline within 90 min, which is about 40.4% higher than that of pure Mn2O3. In addition, the degradation rate constant k of S modified sample increased 2.17 times. Surface sulfidation not only increased the active sites and oxygen vacancies on the pristine Mn2O3 surface, but also changed the electronic structure of Mn due to the introduce of surface S2-. This modification accelerated the electronic transmission during the degradation process. Meanwhile, the utilization efficiency of photogenerated electrons was greatly improved under light. Besides, the S modified manganese oxide had an excellent reuse performance after four cycles. The scavenging experiments and EPR analyses showed that •OH and 1O2 were the main reactive oxygen species. This study therefore provides a new avenue for further developing manganese-based catalysts towards high activation efficiency for peroxydisulfate.

Abstract
In the work, S-doped iron-based carbon nanocomposites (Fe-S@CN) for activating persulfate (PS) were prepared by calcining iron-loaded sodium lignosulfonate. The characterization revealed that the main substances of Fe-S@CN were FeS and Fe3C, which were distributed on porous carbon nanosheets in rod-like morphology. In the Fe-S@CN/PS system, carbamazepine could be completely removed within 30 min, and the relative contribution of hydroxyl radicals (OH·), sulfate radicals (SO4·-) and total singlet oxygen (1O2) and superoxide radicals (O2·-) for carbamazepine removal were approximated as 8.7%, 19.2% and 72.1%, respectively. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy demonstrated that S doping promoted the formation of various active species. Compared with the catalyst without S doping, Fe-S@CN exhibited higher activation performance (1.48-fold) for PS due to the enhanced electron transfer rate and facilitated Fe2+/Fe3+ cycle. Density functional theory calculations showed that S doping promoted the binding between the catalyst and PS, and enhanced the overall internal electron density of the catalyst. Fe-S@CN exhibited excellent catalytic performance over a wide pH range (3.0-11.0). The active sites of Fe-S@CN used in the cycling experiments was also largely recovered after thermal regeneration. Overall, this study shows for the first time the impact of SLS as an S dopant on enhanced PS activation.

Abstract
In recent years, photodynamic therapy (PDT) or chemodynamic therapy (CDT) based on the antimicrobial property or anti-biofilm property of reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been widely recognized for their low susceptibility to microbial resistance. However, due to the complication of the three-dimensional structure of the biofilm at the wound site and the high quenching rate of common ROS, the treatment with traditional ROS could not achieve satisfactory wound healing effects. Here, Na2S2O8@ZIF-67/GOx nanoparticles (NZG NPs) were prepared as a new high-toxic ROS nanogenerator for application of biofilm-infecting wound healing with the assistance of glucose oxidase (GOx) for amplified CDT and immune activation. When the NZG NPs entered the biofilm, Co-based metal organic frame (ZIF-67) ruptured in the acidic microenvironment, which induced the release of GOx and the production of gluconic acid and H2O2, further promoting the decrease of pH of the biofilm microenvironment and in turn accelerating the cleavage of ZIF-67 and the release of Na2S2O8. Then, S2O82- could gradually transformed into high-toxic sulfate radical (SO4-), part of which further produced OH in situ with H2O, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of bacteria and biofilms. Interestingly, these two types of ROS not only caused direct damage to the biofilm, but also activated the immune system of the wound site as well as the body more effectively, which also played an indirect role in promoting biofilm destruction and wound healing. In vitro and in vivo results showed that, as a new high-toxic ROS nanogenerator, the NZG NPs supply amplified chemodynamic therapy and immune activation to destroy biofilms, but also achieve effective wound healing without causing bacterial tolerance, which provides a new strategy for the development of biofilm-infecting wound healing.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most deadly cancer worldwide, with chemoresistance remaining a major obstacle in CRC treatment. Sodium persulfate (Na2S2O8) is a novel agent capable of producing •SO4- and Na+ for chemodynamic therapy (CDT). This can induce pyroptosis and ferroptosis instead of conventional apoptosis in tumor cells. Meanwhile, IR780-iodide (IR780), as an excellent phototherapy agent, can generate hyperthermia and generate a large amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to synergize with the CDT of Na2S2O8, with potential to overcome chemoresistance in CRC. However, the low stability of Na2S2O8 and the poor solubility of IR780 limit their applications in the medical field. Accordingly, for the first time, D-α-Tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS), Na2S2O8 and IR780 were rationally designed in a cascade-amplifying nanoplatform (Na2S2O8-IR780 NPs) via a co-assembly strategy. Combining Na2S2O8 and IR780 in a nanoplatform improves the stability of Na2S2O8 and the solubility of IR780. As a result, the Na2S2O8-IR780 NPs exhibited excellent antitumor efficacy in CRC cell lines and five chemo-resistant cell lines and showed potent inhibitory capability in nude mice xenograft models. This photo-chemodynamic nanoplatform provides a brand-new paradigm by manipulating osmolarity and redox homeostasis to overcome chemo-resistance and holds great potential for the treatment of CRC.

Abstract
The mechanism of Fe2+-activated peroxodisulfate (PDS) by hydroxylamine (HA) has been investigated, however, nano zero-valent iron-activated persulfate (nZVI/PDS) has a more optimal effect and needs further investigation. This study investigated the addition of HA to nZVI/PDS to improve Fe2+ regeneration and accelerate methylparaben (MP) degradation by Fe (0/II/III) cycle. After 60 min of reaction, the HA-enhanced nZVI/PDS (HA/nZVI/PDS) system afforded a 21% increase in MP degradation, reaching 93.26% (1 mM HA, 1 mM nZVI, and 2 mM PDS). nZVI/PDS system was a second-order reaction, but after adding HA, the reaction was more suitable for the first-order reaction. The addition of HA effectively promoted the reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+ to improve the effect and reaction rate of PDS degradation of MP (k increased from 0.0127 min-1 to 0.0198 min-1) and broadened the reaction pH range. The results of various characterizations of nZVI before and after the reaction revealed that nZVI changed from a spherical structure to a bundle structure and was slightly oxidized. Changes in the Fe2+ and Fe3+ concentrations as well as in the pH of the reaction systems were monitored and the possible reactions of the HA/nZVI/PDS system were derived for the first time (knZVI/PDS<3.7 × 106 M-1 s-1, kFe3+/NH2O· >4.2 min-1). 12 potential compounds were investigated and MP breakdown pathways were speculated; hydroxylation was determined to be the most important pathway of degradation. And the HA/nZVI/PDS system had universal applicability.

Abstract
Iron-based catalysts are widely used in water treatment and environmental remediation due to their abundant content in nature and their ability to activate persulfate at room temperature. Here, eggshell biochar-loaded natural iron slag (IO@ESBC) was successfully synthesized to remove tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) by activated persulfate. The morphology, structure and chemical composition of IO@ESBC were systematically characterized. The IO@ESBC/PS process showed good performance for TCH removal. The decomposition rate constant (k) for IO@ESBC was 0.011 min−1 and the degradation rate was 3690 mmol/g/h in this system. With the increase of PS concentration and IO@ESBC content, the removal rate of TCH both increased. The IO@ESBC/PS process can effectively remove TCH at pH 3–9. There are different effects on TCH removal for the reason that the addition of water matrix species (humic acid, Cl−, HCO3−, NO3− and HPO42−). The IO@ESBC/PS system for degrading TCH was mainly controlled by both the free radical pathway (SO4•−, •OH and O2•−) and non-free radical pathway (1O2). The loading of ESBC slows down the agglomeration between iron particles, and more active sites are exposed. The removal rate of TCH was still above 75% after five cycles of IO@ESBC. This interesting investigation has provided a green route for synthesis of composite driving from waste resources, expanding its further application for environmental remediations.

Abstract
Cu0 coupled with O2 was used to degrade contaminant due to in-site generation and catalysis of H2O2, while the low reactivity and active dismutation reaction of Cu+ refrained the performance at acidic condition. In this study, the removal rate of 4-acetamidophenol increased from 27 % to 83.4 % with Fe3+ spiked into the Cu0 system within 60 min •OH was the primary reactive species in the Fe3+/Cu0 system. In the Fe3+/Cu0 system, Cu0 was corroded to form Cu+ by H+ and O2, and then Cu+ interacted with O2 generating H2O2, and meanwhile Fe3+ was reduced to Fe2+ by Cu+ and Cu0; Consequently, Cu+ and Fe2+ induced H2O2 to produce •OH, but Fe2+ was easier to catalyze H2O2 than Cu+ at acidic pH. Except for fulvic acid, common water matrix including sulfate ion, phosphate ion, chloride ion and nitrate ion had no inhibition effect on the degradation of 4-acetamidophenol in the Fe3+/Cu0 system. over 62 % of 4-acetamidophenol in tap water, Hou-lake water and well water was greatly oxidized by the Fe3+/Cu0 system. Furthermore, the amount of total dissolved copper decreased to 0.895 mg/L by the method of alkali precipitation in the Fe3+/Cu0 system. The study provided a theoretical direction to the Fe3+-enhanced Cu0 system for purifying wastewater.

Abstract
In this study, complete tetracycline (TTC) and above 50% of total organic carbon (TOC) were removed by FeS/PS after 30 min under optimized conditions. Although free radicals and high-valent iron ions were identified to generate in the process, the apparent similarity between intermediate products of FeS/PS, Fe/PS, and UV/PS systems demonstrated that the degradation of TTC was due to sulfate radicals (SO4⋅-) and hydroxyl radicals (⋅OH). Based on the reaction between free radicals and organic matter, we speculated that TTC in the FeS/PS system was decomposed and mineralized by dehydration, dehydrogenation, hydroxyl addition, demethylation, substitution, E-transfer, and ring-opening. Furthermore, a new understanding of FeS-mediated PS activation based on stoichiometry and kinetic analysis showed that there were both homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions that occurred in the entire progress. However, due to the effect of pH on the dissolution of iron ions, the homogeneous reaction became the principal process with iron ions concentration exceeding 1.35 mg/L. This work provides a theoretical basis for the study of the degradation of TTC-containing wastewater by the iron-based advanced oxidation process.

Abstract
In this study, a commonly used reducing agent, hydroxylamine (HA), was introduced into Fe(II)/PAA process to improve its oxidation capacity. The HA/Fe(II)/PAA process possessed high oxidation performance for diclofenac degradation even with trace Fe(II) dosage (i.e., 1 μM) at pH of 3.0 to 6.0. Based on electron paramagnetic resonance technology, methyl phenyl sulfoxide (PMSO)-based probe experiments and alcohol quenching experiments, FeIVO2+ and carbon-centered radicals (R-O•) were considered as the primary reactive species responsible for diclofenac elimination. HA accelerated the redox cycle of Fe(III)/Fe(II) and itself was gradually decomposed to N2, N2O, NO2- and NO3-, and the environmentally friendly gas of N2 was considered as the major decomposition product of HA. Four possible degradation pathways of diclofenac were proposed based on seven detected intermediate products. Both elevated dosages of Fe(II) and PAA promoted diclofenac removal. Cl-, HCO3- and SO42- had negligible impacts on diclofenac degradation, while humic acid exhibited an inhibitory effect. The oxidation capacity of HA/Fe(II)/PAA process in natural water matrices and its application to degrade various micropollutants were also investigated. This study proposed a promising strategy for improving the Fe(II)/PAA process and highlighted its potential application in water treatment.

Abstract
Iron/copper bimetallic nanoparticles based sludge biochar (Fe/Cu-SBC) was prepared by using a modified co-precipitation route. The Fe/Cu-SBC system prepared was subsequently applied to activate periodate (IO4-) to degrade diclofenac sodium (DCF) by using UV light at room temperature (25 °C). The physicochemical properties of both SBC and Fe/Cu-SBC such as morphology, physical properties, crystal structures and functional groups were examined. The type and number of surface functional groups were found to be increased and the catalytic performance was improved by the modification of Fe/Cu bimetallic nanoparticles. The influence of various parameters to evaluate the catalytic efficiency such as periodate (PI) concentration, dosage of catalysts, UV power, initial pH and coexisting anions were investigated. Under the optimized conditions (pH 6.9, UV-power 60 W, PI concentration of 5 mM and 0.1 g Fe/Cu-SBC), it was observed that 99.7% of DCF was degraded with a pseudo-first-order kinetics reaction constant 9.39 × 10-2 min-1. The radical scavenging experiments showed that IO3 radicals were the predominantly reactive oxidants in the Fe/Cu-SBC/UV system. Therefore, this investigation provides a feasible alternative for the degradation of PPCPs in wastewater.

Abstract
In the present study, the sonophotocatalytic degradation of acid orange 7 (AO7) dye was evaluated. The catalyst used was the titanium dioxide nanoparticles/graphene oxide (TiO2/GO) nanocomposite, which was synthesized using the Hummers and Hoffman's method and the liquid phase deposition method. TiO2/GO nanocomposite was characterized through the analyses of transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. In addition, properties of the surface area and pore size were determined by N2 adsorption-desorption and the Barrett-Joyner-Halenda methods. After modification, the nanocomposite properties showed successful stabilization of TiO2 on the graphene substrate and reduction of the recombinant carrier loads. By utilizing the proposed treatment, complete degradation of AO7 could be achieved under optimal operating parameters (pH = 5, initial concentration of AO7 dye = 50 mg/L, TiO2/GO nanocomposite dose = 0.5 g/L, UV light intensity = 36 W, ultrasonic wave intensity = 35 kHz, and reaction time = 30 min). Scavenging experiments confirmed that OH and h+ radicals were the predominant species in the sonophotocatalytic degradation reactions of the AO7 dye. The stability study confirmed the excellent shelf life of the TiO2/GO nanocomposite, with only a slight reduction in the degradation efficiency of the AO7 dye (<8.27%) detected, after six consecutive cycles of the sonophotocatalytic process. Studies related to the degradability of the AO7 dye and the biodegradability of the effluent from the process showed that the applied sonophotocatalytic system was able to remove the TOC concentration by 83% after a reaction time of 30 min. Moreover, the increase in the BOD5/COD ratio was also a confirmation for the increase in biodegradability of the treated AO7 dye effluent. Finally, the toxicity test showed that the growth inhibition rate of Escherichia coli (E. coli), as a viability index, decreased to about 7.34% after a reaction time of 180 min. This result indicated the formation of compounds with low toxicity and molecular weight over the reaction time of the sonophotocatalytic process of AO7 dye.

Abstract
In this study, iodometric spectrophotometry, the most-used method for detecting peroxydisulfate (PDS), was modified by increasing the concentration of potassium iodide (KI) for realizing the immediate PDS determination and avoiding the interference of hydroxylamine. Kinetic studies showed that the reaction between PDS and I- to generate the yellow-colored I3- followed the kinetic equation as [Formula: see text] . Detection time of the iodometric spectrophotometry was shortened from 15 min to 15 s when KI concentration was increased from 0.6 M to 4.8 M. Different with the previous iodometric spectrophotometry, the modified method using 4.8 M KI as the indicator was well tolerable to the interference of hydroxylamine at acidic pH conditions. The calibration curve of the modified method showed a well linear relationship (R2 = 0.999) between the absorbance of I3- at 352 nm and PDS concentration in the range of 0-80 μM. The modified method was highly sensitive with the absorptivity of 2.5 × 104 M-1 cm-1 and the limit of detection of 0.11 μM. Moreover, the modified method was successfully applied for monitoring the change of PDS concentration during the degradation of diclofenac with four different PDS-based AOPs, the calculated reaction stoichiometric efficiency (RSE(%)=DiclofenacdegradedPDSconsumed×100%) followed the order as heat/PDS system > hydroxylamine/Fe2+/PDS system > hydroxylamine/Cu2+/PDS system > Fe2+/PDS system.

The absorbance of the generated I3- at both 350 nm and 400 nm had good linear relationships with H2O2 concentration in the range of 0-70 μM (R2 > 0.999) with sensitivities of 2.34 × 104 M-1 cm-1 and 5.30 × 103 M-1 cm-1 respectively. Meanwhile, through calculation, the detection limits of the proposed POD-KI method at 350 nm and 400 nm were 0.09 μM and 0.33 μM, respectively. Even when the concentration of H2O2 was up to 350 μM, the absorbance of the generated I3- at 350 nm did not decrease observably. The generated I3- was found to be stable enough in ultrapure water, underground water, reservoir water and samples containing the strong reducing agent hydroxylamine. Moreover, the proposed POD-KI method was successfully used to analyze trace H2O2 in rainwater, and to monitor the change of H2O2 concentration in the Fenton, hydroxylamine/Fenton and hydroxylamine/Cu(II)/H2O2 systems. Overall, the POD-KI method could be adopted as a candidate method to determine H2O2 in Fenton and Fenton-like systems, and especially in those involving hydroxylamine.

Photocatalytic-persulfate- oxidation for diclofenac removal from aqueous solutions: Modeling, optimization and biotoxicity test assessment. CHEMOSPHERE 2021; 266:129158. [PMID: 33307413 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.129158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2020] [Revised: 11/24/2020] [Accepted: 11/28/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
In this paper, the influence of several aquatic factors (the nature of catalyst, the initial pH and the initial concentration of the pollutant) on the photocatalytic degradation of diclofenac (DFC), one of the most widely prescribed anti-inflammatory non-steroidal drug, was studied. Also, in order to examine the intensification process, the variation of the photocatalytic DFC degradation in the presence of sodium persulfate (PPS) was analyzed. It was found that, compared to titanium dioxide (TiO2), the zinc oxide (ZnO) photocatalyst performed exceptionally well, with a 96.13% DFC degradation efficiency after 150 min. The photodegradation of DFC by ZnO catalyst fitted well the Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic model. The maximum efficiency is 97.27% for simulated solar-UVA/ZnO/PPS and 77% for simulated solar-UVA/ZnO. In order to determine the optimal conditions leading to the maximization of DFC removal, an artificial neural network (ANN) modeling approach combined with genetic algorithm (GA) was applied. The best ANN determined had a correlation of 0.999 and it was further used in the process optimization where a 99.7% degradation efficiency was identified as the optimum under the following conditions: DFC initial concentration 37,9 mg L-1, pH 5,88 and PPS initial concentration 500 mg L-1. The effectiveness of the process and the toxicity of the pharmaceutical pollutants and their by-products were also evaluated and confirmed by the biological tests using liver and kidney of Mus musculus mice.

Abstract
Pyrite (FeS2) is an abundant sulfide-associated iron mineral that exists in the earth. In this study, the pyrite/oxone process was demonstrated to be an effective approach for the catalytic degradation of propanil, where more than 90% decay ([propanil]0 = 0.01 mM) was achieved within 15 min. Typically, the effects of various experimental parameters, including catalyst loading, oxone dosage, propanil concentration, and initial solution pH, were examined. Two optimal reaction pH values were observed at pH 9.1 and pH 2.9. The generated SO4- and OH were verified to be the dominant reactive radicals and primarily responsible for the propanil degradation. Both Fe(II) regeneration and sulfur conversion play an important role in oxone activation mechanism and effectively aid the catalytic activity of pyrite. Different co-existing natural water constituents exert dissimilar effects on the pyrite/oxone process. Additionally, the reusability test of pyrite exhibited a reasonable catalytic activity. The pyrite/oxone process was proven efficient in terms of propanil mineralization. A series of reaction intermediates was detected via four major degradation pathways. Overall, the pyrite/oxone process could be a promising approach for the removal of organic compounds in water.

Abstract
A Fe-Cu bimetal catalyst (FCHS) was synthesized by depositing Fe3O4 on the shell of CuOx hollow spheres, which were prepared via a soft template method. Several characterization methods, including XRD, SEM-EDS&mapping, TEM, FTIR, and XPS, were used to reveal the morphology and surface properties of FCHS. The characterization results demonstrated that the double-shell hollow structure is formed with a dense coating of Fe3O4 nanoparticles on the surface of CuOx hollow spheres. FCHS can exhibit excellent catalytic activity to degrade sulfadiazine (SDZ) with the oxidant of persulfate (PS). The optimal SDZ removal performance was explored by adjusting reaction parameters, including catalyst dosage, oxidant dosage, and solution pH. The SDZ removal efficiency in the FCHS + PS system could reach 95% at the optimal reaction condition ([catalyst]0 = 0.2 g/L, [PS]0 = 2 mM, pH = 7.0) with 5 mg/L of SDZ. Meanwhile, the degradation efficiency decreased with the coexistence of phosphate or carbonate anions. According to the results of radicals scavenging experiments and the electron paramagnetic resonance analysis, the radicals of SO4·-, O2·- and ·OH generated in the FCHS + PS system contribute to the degradation of SDZ. Moreover, the results of XPS revealed that the solid-state charge-transfer redox couple of Fe(III)/Fe(II) and Cu(I)/Cu(II) can promote the activation of PS. It means that the cooperation effect between Cu oxides and Fe oxides in the double-shell structure is beneficial to the catalytic degradation of SDZ. Furthermore, four possible pathways for SDZ degradation were proposed according to the analysis of intermediate products detected by the LCMS-IT-TOF.

Abstract
In this study, we compared the decontamination kinetics of various target compounds and the oxidation by-products (bromate and chlorate) of PMS, PDS, and H2O2 under UV irradiation (UV/PMS, UV/PDS, UV/H2O2). Probes of different reactivity with hydroxyl and sulfate radicals, such as benzoic acid (BA), nitrobenzene (NB), and trichloromethane (TCM), were selected to compare the decontamination efficiency of the three oxidation systems. Experiments were performed under acidic, neutral, and alkaline pH conditions to obtain a full-scale comparison of UV/peroxides. Furthermore, the decontamination efficiency was also compared in the presence of common radical scavengers in water bodies [bicarbonate, carbonate, and natural organic matter (NOM)]. Finally, the formation of oxidation by-products, bromate, and chlorate, was also monitored in comparison in pure water and tap water. Results showed that UV/H2O2 showed higher decontamination efficiency than UV/PDS and UV/PMS for BA degradation while UV/H2O2 and UV/PMS showed better decontamination performance than UV/PDS for NB degradation under acidic and neutral conditions. UV/PMS was the most efficient among the three processes for BA and NB degradation under alkaline conditions, while UV/PDS was the most efficient for TCM degradation under all pH conditions. In pure water, both bromate and chlorate were formed in UV/PDS, small amounts of bromate and rare chlorate were observed in UV/PMS, and no detectable bromate and chlorate were formed in UV/H2O2. In tap water, no bromate and chlorate were detectable for all three systems.

Abstract
Sewage in WWTPs is one of main way to spread antibiotic resistant microbes (ARMs), and beach bay water is in direct contact with human skin. It is necessary to pay attention to remove the ARMs in WWTP sewage and bay water. Our results showed that ARMs and total microbes (TMs) can be effectively removed by S2O82-/Fe2+ in the effluent stage of WWTPs and bay water. Quenching experiments using tert-butyl alcohol, dimethyl sulfoxide and Al2O3 as scavengers confirmed that the primary reactive oxidants responsible for microbes removal during the Fe(II)-activated persulfate oxidation process might be SO4•- and Fe(IV), rather than •OH. The bacterial community shifted and the alpha diversity significantly reduced after treatment. In WWTP group, relative abundance of Firmicutes increased to 8.56%, and potential pathogens such as genus Vibrio decreased to 0.03% in bay water after treatment. The ecological toxicity to the environment of S2O82-/Fe2+ further illustrated that the mortality of indicator species Oryzias latipes did not increase after treatment, and the dosage of 60/30 μM can be potentially ideal dosage of S2O82-/Fe2+. This study revealed Fe(II)-activated persulfate oxidation as an eco-friendly and economical method could reduce TMs and ARMs in WWTP sewage and bay water.

Abstract
Persulfate (PS)-activated, iron-based heterogeneous catalysts have attracted significant attention as a potential advanced and sustainable water purification system. Herein, a novel Fe3O4 impregnated graphene oxide (Fe3O4@GO)-activated persulfate system (Fe3O4@GO+K2S2O8) was synthesized by following a sustainable protocol and was tested on real wastewater containing dye pollutants. In the presence of the PS-activated system, the degradation efficiency of Rhodamine B (RhB) was significantly increased to a level of ≈95% compared with that of Fe3O4 (≈25%). The influences of different operational parameters, including solution pH, persulfate dosage, and RhB concentration, were systemically evaluated. This system maintained its catalytic activity and durability with a negligible amount of iron leached during successive recirculation experiments. The degradation intermediates were further identified through reactive oxygen species (ROS) studies, where surface-bound SO4− was found to be dominant radical for RhB degradation. Moreover, the degradation mechanism of RhB in the Fe3O4@GO+K2S2O8 system was discussed. Finally, the results indicate that the persulfate-activated Fe3O4@GO catalyst provided an effective pathway for the degradation of dye pollutants in real wastewater treatment.

Efficient Degradation of Mordant Blue 9 Using the Fenton-Activated Persulfate System. WATER 2019. [DOI: 10.3390/w11122532] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
In this study, a Fenton-activated persulfate (Fe2+/PS) system was introduced for the efficient degradation of Mordant Blue 9 (MB 9) as a textile dye in an aqueous solution. Results showed that the degradation of MB 9 was markedly influenced by operational parameters, such as initial pH, PS concentration, Fe2+ concentration, and initial dye concentration. Optimal reaction conditions were then determined. Inorganic anions, such as Cl− and HCO3−, enhanced the degradation efficiency of MB 9 under optimal conditions. Addition of HCO3− reduced the degradation performance of MB 9, whereas the addition of Cl− increased the degradation percentage of MB 9. In addition, quenching experiments were conducted using methanol and tert-butyl alcohol as scavengers, and methanol was identified as an effective scavenger. Thus, the degradation of MB 9 was attributed to S O 4 • − and •OH radicals. The degradation and mineralization efficiency of MB 9 was significantly reduced using the conventional Fenton process i.e., Fe2+/ hydrogen peroxide (HP) because of the formation of a Fe complex during degradation. Meanwhile, the Fe2+/persulfate (PS) system improved the degradation and mineralization performance.
