Abstract
Alternatives are being developed to replace fluorinated persistent organic pollutants (POPs) listed in the Stockholm Convention, bypass environmental regulations, and overcome environmental risks. However, the extensive usage of fluorinated POPs alternatives has revealed potential risks such as high exposure levels, long-range transport properties, and physiological toxicity. Therefore, it is imperative to rethink the alternatives and their treatment technologies. This review aims to consider the existing destructive technologies for completely eliminating fluorinated POPs alternatives from the earth based on the updated classification and risks overview. Herein, the types of common alternatives were renewed and categorized, and their risks to the environment and organisms were concluded. The efficiency, effectiveness, energy utilization, sustainability, and cost of various degradation technologies in the treatment of fluorinated POPs alternatives were reviewed and evaluated. Meanwhile, the reaction mechanisms of different fluorinated POPs alternatives are systematically generalized, and the correlation between the structure of alternatives and the degradation characteristics was discussed, providing mechanistic insights for their removal from the environment. Overall, the review supplies a theoretical foundation and reference for the control and treatment of fluorinated POPs alternatives pollution.

Nitro-functionalization on MIL-53(Fe) for PCMX degradation: Elevating Fenton-like catalytic propelled by abundant reaction sites and iron cycle. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 362:142707. [PMID: 38942245 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.142707] [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: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 06/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/30/2024]
Abstract
To address the issue of excessive residues of 4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenol (PCMX) in the water environment. In a one-step solvothermal process, iron-based metal-organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) material MIL-53(Fe) undergoes a synthetic modification strategy. 2-Nitroterephthalic acid as an organic ligand reacted with Fe3+ in a solvothermal process lasting 18 h to yield the nitro-functionalized MIL-53(Fe)-NO2(18h). The objective was to augment the abundance of Fe central unsaturated coordination sites (Fe CUCs) and expedite the Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycle, thereby enhancing the heterogeneous Fenton-like treatment capability of pollutants. MIL-53(Fe)-NO2(18h) has excellent hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) catalytic activity and PCMX degradation across a broad pH spectrum (4.0∼8.0). Almost complete removal of PCMX was achieved within 30 min, while pseudo-first-order kinetic rate constants (kobs) increased 4.37 times over MIL-53(Fe). The confirmation of increased Fe CUCs abundance in MIL-53(Fe)-NO2(18h) was achieved through Lewis acidity, oxygen vacancies (OVs) signals, and Fe-O coordination characterization results. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that Fe CUCs in MIL-53(Fe)-NO2(18h) exhibits heightened affinity for H2O2 adsorption, showcasing stronger charge transfer and enhanced H2O2 dissociation ability. The Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycle, a driving force of Fenton-like reactions, was notably improved in the nitro-modified materials. These enhancements significantly expedited the Fenton-like process, resulting in the generation of increased amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROSs), with hydroxyl radicals (OH·) being pivotal components in degradation. The MIL-53(Fe)-NO2(18h)/H2O2 system has demonstrated versatility in treating a variety of emerging contaminants, achieving removal efficiencies exceeding 99.7% for other antibiotics and endocrine disruptors within 60 min. Furthermore, MIL-53(Fe)-NO2(18h) demonstrated outstanding reusability and adaptability in actual water environments. This study introduces a straightforward and environmentally friendly strategy for remediating environmental pollution using Fe-MOF-catalysed heterogeneous Fenton-like technology.

Construction of an S-scheme electron transfer channel in Cu 0/CuFe 2O 4 magnetic plate column reactor for the LEV degradation: New strategy of visible Photo-Fenton system application. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 476:135173. [PMID: 39003812 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.135173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2024] [Revised: 05/31/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
The complicated loading process and easy falling off of powder catalysts still restrict the wide application of Photo-Fenton technology in practical water treatment. In this study, a magnetic fixed film plate column water treatment equipment is designed as a visible Photo-Fenton reactor to remove levofloxacin (LEV). The effect of magnetic force can ensure that the catalyst is firmly fixed, and the multi-level shallow column plate structure achieves full contact and efficient reaction between the catalyst and wastewater. Simultaneously, the Cu0/CuFe2O4 (STCCF) utilizes Cu0 to construct an S-scheme electron transfer channel, which improves the separation efficiency of photo-generated carriers and provides sufficient photo-generated electrons for the reduction of Fe (Ⅲ) and Cu (Ⅱ). The pseudo-first-order reaction kinetic constant k for the degradation of LEV in the visible Photo-Fenton system is 0.0349 min-1, which is 15.9 times that of the photocatalytic system and 4.8 times that of the Fenton system. After continuous operation for 72 h, the magnetic fixed film plate column reactor can still remove more than 90 % of LEV and 82 % of COD in the secondary effluent of simulated antibiotic pharmaceutical wastewater treatment process, and the effluent is stable and meets the standard. The magnetic fixed film plate column reactor can be used for advanced treatment of antibiotic pharmaceutical wastewater. This study provides a new insight into the application of the Photo-Fenton process.

Abstract
In this study, a new catalyst for catalytic ozonation was obtained by in-situ growth of Mn-Ni3S2 nanosheets on the surface of nickel foam (NF). The full degradation of p-nitrophenol (PNP) was accomplished under optimal conditions in 40 min. The effects of material dosage, ozone dosage, pH and the presence of inorganic anions on the degradation efficiency of PNP were investigated. ESR analysis showed that singlet oxygen (1O2) and superoxide radical (O2•-) are the main contributors of PNP degradation. This study offers a new combination of supported catalysts with high efficiency and easy recovery, which provides a new idea for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Photocatalytic technology has received increasing attention in recent years. A pivotal facet of photocatalytic technology lies in the development of photocatalysts. Porous metal-organic framework (MOF) materials, distinguished by their unique properties and structural characteristics, have emerged as a focal point of research in the field, finding widespread application in the photo-treatment and conversion of various substances. Fe-based MOFs have attained particular prominence. This review explores recent advances in the photocatalytic degradation of aqueous and gaseous substances. Furthermore, it delves into the interaction between the active sites of Fe-MOFs and pollutants, offering deeper insights into their mechanism of action. Fe-MOFs, as photocatalysts, predominantly facilitate pollutant removal through redox processes, interaction with acid sites, the formation of complexes with composite metal elements, binding to unsaturated metal ligands (CUSs), and hydrogen bonding to modulate their respiratory behavior. This review also highlights the focal points of future research, elucidating the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in harnessing the characteristics and advantages of Fe-MOF composite catalysts. In essence, this review provides a comprehensive summary of research progress on Fe-MOF-based catalysts, aiming to serve as a guiding reference for other catalytic processes.
