Fang L, Zhang D, Chen H, Li K. Efficient removal of moxifloxacin through PMS activation by CuFeS 2/MXene. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:45353-45369. [PMID: 38963631 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-024-34144-6] [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: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
Due to the frequent detection and potential toxicity of moxifloxacin (MOX), its removal technology had attracted attention in recent years. In this research, CuFeS2/MXene was prepared and used to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to remove MOX. The degradation efficiencies, kinetics, influences, and reaction mechanism of MOX by CuFeS2/MXene/PMS were investigated. The synergistic effect of CuFeS2 and MXene significantly enhanced PMS activation, producing SO4•-, HO•, and 1O2 as the main active species. By adding 0.12 g/L CuFeS2/MXene and 0.12 mM PMS, MOX removal efficiency reached 99.1% within 40 min, with a rate constant of 0.1073 min-1. The composite ratios of CuFeS2/MXene impacted PMS activation more significantly than catalyst dosages and PMS concentrations. Acidic conditions were favorable for the degradation of MOX, while HCO3-, HPO42-, Mn2+, and HA had the inhibitory effects. Twelve major products were detected by HPLC-MS, and DFT was used to illustrate possible degradation pathways of MOX, including the removal of nitrogen-containing heterocycle and transformations of quinolone moieties. Toxicity analysis showed that the developmental toxicity, mutagenicity, and acute toxicity of degradation products tended to decrease. CuFeS2/MXene could exhibit excellent reusability, maintaining an average MOX degradation efficiency of 90.8% in the 7-cycle experiments.

Abstract
Herein, we successfully synthesized Hf/Zr co-doping on Fe2O3 nanorod photocatalyst by a hydrothermal process and quenching methods. The synergistic roles of Hf and Zr double-doping on the bacteria inactivation test and decomposition of organic pollutants were investigated in detail for the 1 wt% CoOx loaded Hf/Zr-Fe2O3 NRs and CuOx/CoOx loaded Hf/Zr-Fe2O3 NRs photocatalyst. Initially, the rod-like porous morphology of the Hf/Zr-doped Fe2O3 NRs was produced via a hydrothermal method at various Hf co-doping (0, 2, 4, 7 and 10)%. Further, CoOx and CuOx loaded by a wet impregnation approach on the Hf/Zr-Fe2O3 NRs and a highly photoactive Hf(4)/Zr-Fe2O3 [CoOx/CuOx] NRs photocatalyst were developed. After the Hf(4)/Zr-Fe2O3 [CoOx/CuOx] NRs photocatalyst treatment, the Bio-TEM imagery of bacterial cells showed extensive morphological deviations in cell membranes. Hf(4)/Zr-Fe2O3 NR achieved 84.1% orange II degradation upon 3 h illumination, which is higher than that of Hf-Fe2O3 and Zr-Fe2O3 (68.7 and 73.5%, respectively). Additionally, the optimum sample, Hf(4)/Zr-Fe2O3 [CoOx/CuOx] photocatalyst, exhibited 95.5% orange II dye degradation after light radiation for 3 h. Optimized Hf(4)/Zr-Fe2O3 [CoOx/CuOx] catalysts exhibited 99.9% and 99.7% inactivation of E. coli and S. aureus with 120 min, respectively. Further, scavenger experiments revealed that the electrons are the primary responsible species for photocatalytic kinetics. This work will provide a rapid method for the development of high photocatalytic performance materials for bacterial disinfection and organic degradation.

Abstract
In this study, we prepared a micron zero-valent iron/N-doped graphene-like biochar (mZVI/NGB) composite using a mechanochemical method for tetracycline (TC) degradation through O2 activation. The mZVI and NGB components formed a strong coupling catalytic system, with mZVI acting as an electron pool and NGB as a catalyst for H2O2 generation. Under circumneutral pH (5.0-6.8), the mZVI/NGB composite exhibited exceptional TC removal efficiency, reaching nearly 100 % under optimal conditions. It also showed good tolerance to co-existing anions, such as Cl-, SO42-, and humic acid. Further studies found that the TC degradation mechanism was mainly ascribed to the non-radical pathway (1O2 and electron transfer), and the Fe2+/Fe3+ redox cycle on the composite's surface also played a crucial role in maintaining catalytic activity. This research contributes to the development of advanced materials for sustainable and effective water treatment, addressing pharmaceutical pollutant contamination in water sources.

ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY 2024; 45:2144-2155.

Abstract
To enhance the catalytic activity of CuFe2O4 on PS, a nanoscale oxygen-vacancy CuFe2O4 was prepared by hydrogenation reduction technique to construct an advanced oxidation system of electrochemical-enhanced nanoscale oxygen-vacancy CuFe2O4-activated persulfate. Using Ebselen (EBS) as a model pollutant, the degradation efficiency, activation mechanism and degradation pathway were studied. The oxygen-vacancy CuFe2O4 was characterized and analysed by FESEM, EDS and XPS. The results show that under the optimal reaction conditions (PS = 0.8 g/L, oxygen-vacancy CuFe2O4 = 0.3 g/L, initial pH = 6.5), the removal rate of 20 mg/L EBS can reach 92% after reaction for 60 min, which proves that the formation of oxygen-vacancy changed the catalytic inertness of CuFe2O4 on PS. It is speculated that in the E/oxygen-vacancy CuFe2O4/PS system, the existence of oxygen holes enhances the electron transfer ability and reducibility of the catalyst, so the oxygen-vacancy CuFe2O4 can efficiently activate PS to degrade EBS. The quenching experiments show that both SO 4 ⋅ - and ⋅ OH are involved in the oxidation reaction as reactive radicals in the system, with SO 4 ⋅ - being the main reactive radical. In addition, both dissolved oxygen (DO) and anions in the solution inhibit the oxidative degradation of EBS by oxygen-vacancy CuFe2O4/PS system. Through GC-MS detection, a possible degradation pathway is proposed.

Abstract
MIL-101(Fe)/WS2 catalyst was composited using a solvothermal method. To study the physical and chemical properties of the composite material, a series of characterizations such as scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and catalytic experiments were carried out. The photocatalysis of the prepared catalyst in the degradation of tetracycline was investigated using persulfate (PS, Na2S2O8) as a cocatalyst under visible light illumination. The above system can remove about 80% of tetracycline within 40 min. After three cyclic experiments, the material showed good recycling. According to material characterization and various experimental results, the enhanced performance of the material was attributed to the reduction of the recombination efficiency of photogenerated e- and h+, and activated persulfate to produce a large number of free radicals such as O2•-, SO4•- and 1O2 produced by the active sites provided by the catalyst's high specific surface area.

Abstract
Mxene-based catalysts with specific interfacial characteristics are beneficial for photocatalytic applications. Herein, Ti3C2 MXene modified ZnFe2O4 nanocomposite materials were prepared for photocatalysis. The morphology and structure of the nanocmposites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), which revealed that Ti3C2 MXene as quantum dots (QDs) was uniformly distributed on the ZnFe2O4 surface. The Ti3C2 QDs modified ZnFe2O4 catalyst (ZnFe2O4/MXene-15%) under visible light achieved 87% degradation efficiency of tetracycline within 60 min when coupled with persulfate (PS) system. The initial solution pH, PS dosage and co-existing ions were found to be the main factors affecting the heterogeneous oxidation process, while quenching experiments showed that O2•- is the main oxidizing species in the removal of tetracycline in ZnFe2O4/MXene-PS system. In addition, the cyclic experiments suggested that ZnFe2O4/MXene had good stability and thus it may have practical applications in industry.

Abstract
In this work, a visible light-driven La/TiO2@g-C3N4 photocatalyst was synthesized for the photodegradation of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) in the presence of peroxydisulfate (PDS) in an internal loop-lift reactor. The surface morphology and structure of La/TiO2@g-C3N4 have been characterized by XRD, SEM-EDS, FTIR, XPS, and UV/vis DRS. La/TiO2@g-C3N4 displays outstanding photocatalytic performance and reusability. After four reuse cycles of the vis/La/TiO2@g-C3N4/PDS system, the TCH degradation rate and efficiency still reached 0.083 min-1 and 97.68%, respectively. Reactive species in this system included free radicals SO4˙-, ˙OH, and ˙O2 -, as well as non-radicals e-, and h+, as established from the results of chemical quenching experiments. Moreover, a mechanism of action of the vis/La/TiO2@g-C3N4/PDS system for TCH degradation was proposed. The acute toxicity of the reaction solution towards Photobacterium phosphoreum T3 spp. in the vis/La/TiO2@g-C3N4/PDS process increased during the first 60 min and then decreased, illustrating that vis/La/TiO2@g-C3N4/PDS provided an effective and safe method for the removal of TCH.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation caused by invasive bacterial infections severely interferes with the normal healing process of skin regeneration. Hypoxia of the infection microenvironment (IME) seriously affects the antibacterial effect of photodynamic therapy in phototherapy. To address this serious issue, a nanocatalytic hydrogel with an enhanced phototherapy effect consisting of a hydrogel polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) scaffold, MXene/CuS bio-heterojunction, and polydopamine (PDA) for photothermal antibacterial effects and promoting skin regeneration is designed. The MXene/CuS bio-heterojunction has a benign photothermal effect. Singlet oxygen (1O2) and hydroxyl radicals (·OH) were generated under near-infrared light, which made the hydrogel system have good antioxidant and antibacterial properties. The addition of PDA further improves the biocompatibility and endows the nanocatalytic hydrogel with adhesion. Additionally, in vivo assays display that the nanocatalytic hydrogel has good skin regeneration ability, including ability to kill bacteria, and promotes capillary angiogenesis and collagen deposition. This work proposes an approach for nanocatalyzed hydrogels with an activated IME response to treat wound infections by enhancing the phototherapeutic effects.

Abstract
Seeking effective methods to degrade organic pollutants has always been a hot research field. In this work, MoS2/Fe3O4 catalyst was synthesized by hydrothermal method with MoS2 as carrier to construct an advanced oxidation system of electrochemical enhanced MoS2/Fe3O4-activated peroxymonosulfate (E/MoS2/Fe3O4/PMS). The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The degradation efficiency of sulfamerazine (SM1) by E/MoS2/Fe3O4/PMS system was investigated and reaction mechanism was explored. The results showed that the removal rates of SM1 within 30 min were 31%, 20% and 89% with Fe3O4, MoS2 and MoS2/Fe3O4 as catalysts, respectively. The characterization results revealed that Fe(III) on the surface of Fe3O4 was reduced to Fe(II) and Mo(IV) was oxidized to Mo(VI) in the presence of MoS2. The synergistic effect between Fe3O4 and MoS2 enhanced the PMS decomposition and improved the SM1 removal efficiency. Free radical quenching experiments showed that SO4-⋅, ·OH, O2· and 1O2 were all involved in the degradation of SM1, and the effect of 1O2 was more significant than other active substances. Low concentrations of Cl- and humic acid (HA) had no significant inhibitory effect on the degradation of SM1, while HCO3- had a significant inhibitory effect on the E/MoS2/Fe3O4/PMS system. In addition, catalyst cycling experiments showed that MoS2/Fe3O4 maintained good stability before and after the catalytic reaction process.

Abstract
These days, explorations have focused on designing two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials with useful (photo)catalytic and environmental applications. Among them, MXene-based composites have garnered great attention owing to their unique optical, mechanical, thermal, chemical, and electronic properties. Various MXene-based photocatalysts have been inventively constructed for a variety of photocatalytic applications ranging from pollutant degradation to hydrogen evolution. They can be applied as co-catalysts in combination with assorted common photocatalysts such as metal sulfide, metal oxides, metal-organic frameworks, graphene, and graphitic carbon nitride to enhance the function of photocatalytic removal of organic/pharmaceutical pollutants, nitrogen fixation, photocatalytic hydrogen evolution, and carbon dioxide conversion, among others. High electrical conductivity, robust photothermal effects, large surface area, hydrophilicity, and abundant surface functional groups of MXenes render them as attractive candidates for photocatalytic removal of pollutants as well as improvement of photocatalytic performance of semiconductor catalysts. Herein, the most recent developments in photocatalytic degradation of organic and pharmaceutical pollutants using MXene-based composites are deliberated, with a focus on important challenges and future perspectives; techniques for fabrication of these photocatalysts are also covered.
