Abstract
Antibiotics in water will cause serious harm to human health and ecosystem. Carbon-based materials and transition metals activated peroxodisulfate (PDS) to produce active species, which can degrade residual antibiotics in water. In this paper, Cu/CNF (carbon nanofibers) composites were first prepared by introducing Cu into CNF using electrostatic spinning technology, which was used to activate PDS to degrade tetracycline (TC). The degradation efficiency of Cu/CNF/PDS was 36.23% higher than that of CNF/PDS. The reason is that introducing Cu can increase the number of surface functional groups and specific surface area of CNF, and then improve the catalytic performance. The functional groups and Cu species are the active sites for catalytic PDS. Moreover, the main ways to degrade TC in the Cu/CNF/PDS system are singlet oxygen (1O2) and electron transfer. Based on the above analysis, we modified CNF with transition metal salts, prepared efficient environmental functional materials, and used them for PDS activation, providing a theoretical basis and technical support for the degradation of antibiotic pollutants and creating new ideas for other research.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 251:118646. [PMID: 38485075 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118646] [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: 01/01/2024] [Revised: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
In recent studies, carbon nanotube (CNTs) materials and their composites have demonstrated remarkable catalytic activity in the activation of persulfate (PS), facilitating the efficient degradation of organic pollutants. In this study, a novel Co loaded carbon nanotubes (CoO@CNT) catalyst was prepared to promote PDS activation for the degradation of sulfafurazole (SIZ). Experimental results, the CNT as a carrier effectively reduces the leaching of cobalt ions and improves the electron transport capacity,whereas the introduced Co effectively activates the PDS, promoting the generation of highly reactive radicals to degrade SIZ. Under optimized conditions (a catalyst dose of 0.2 g/L, a PDS dose of 1 g/L and an initial pH = 9.0), the obtained CoO@CNT demonstrated favorable Fenton-like performance, reaching a degradation efficiency of 95.55% within 30 min. Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that the introduction of cobalt (Co) accelerates electron transfer, promoting the decomposition of PDS while facilitating the Co2+/Co3+ redox cycling. We further employed the environmental chemistry and risk assessment system (ECOSAR) to evaluate the ecological toxicity of intermediate products, revealing a significant reduction in ecological toxicity associated with this degradation process, thereby confirming its environmental harmlessness. Through batch experiments and studies, we gained a comprehensive understanding of the mechanism and influencing factors of CoO@CNT in the role of SIZ degradation, and provided robust support for evaluating the ecological toxicity of degradation products. This study provides a significant strategy for the development of efficient catalysts incorporating Co for the environmentally friendly degradation of organic pollutants.

Abstract
The treatment of wastewater containing hypophosphite [P(I)] and phosphite [P(III)] is challenged by limitations of traditional Fenton oxidation such as low efficiency, secondary pollution and high costs. This study introduced a facile solvent-thermal method to synthesize Cu-Co3O4 nanoparticles uniformly loaded on graphene (Cu-Co3O4/U-rGO) through the reduction and coordination effects of urushiol (U). As prepared Cu-Co3O4/U-rGO exhibited excellent activity in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the oxidation of P(I)/P(III) to phosphate [P(V)] (0.229 min-1), along with high stability and reusability (91.5 % after 6 cycles), low metal leaching rate (Co: 0.2 mg/L, Cu: 0.05 mg/L), insensitivity to common anions in water and a wide pH range (3-11). The activation mechanism involved the synergistic effects from both urushiol and graphene, which promoted redox of Cu+/Cu2+ and Co2+/Co3+ and induced abundant oxygen vacancies for PMS activation to produce singlet oxygen. Furthermore, the Cu-Co3O4/U-rGO/PMS was also excellent in the oxidative removal of organic phosphorus. This study is expected to advance strategies for the treatment of P(I)/P(III)-rich wastewater and provide new insights for the development of low-cost, highly efficient heterogeneous catalysts with abundant oxygen vacancies.

Abstract
A series of transition metal (Co, Ni, Fe) nanoparticles were confined in N-doped carbon nanotubes (NCNTs) prepared (Co@NCNTs, Ni@NCNTs, and Fe@NCNTs) by the polymerization method. The structure and composition of catalysts were well characterized. The catalytic activity of catalysts for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) was conducted via acid orange 7 (AO7) degradation. Among the catalysts, Co@NCNTs performed the best catalytic activity. Additionally, Co@NCNTs performed good catalytic activity in pH values of 2.39-10.98. Cl- and SO42- played a promoting roles in AO7 degradation. NO3- presented a weak effect on the catalytic performance of Co@NCNTs, while HCO3- and CO32- significantly suppressed the catalytic performance of Co@NCNTs. Both non-radical (1O2 and electron transfer) and free-radical (·OH and SO4·-) pathways were detected in the Co@NCNTs/PMS system. Notably, 1O2 was identified to be the main active specie in this study. The catalytic activity of Co@NCNTs gradually decreased after cycle reuse of Co@NCNTs. Finally, the toxicity of the AO7 degradation solution in the study was evaluated by Chlorella pyrenoidosa.

Abstract
Fe/Mn bimetallic carbon materials were synthesized by combining oat and urea, followed by and carbonization processes, the activity and mechanism of the obtained materials in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for sulfamethoxazole (SMX) degradation were determined. Data suggested that the obtained material (CN@FeMn-10-800) showed the optimal performance for SMX degradation under the1:8:0.05:0.05 mass ratios of oat/urea/Fe/Mn. Around 91.2 % SMX (10 mg L-1) was removed under the conditions of 0.15 g L-1 CN@FeMn-10-800 and 0.20 g L-1 PMS. The CN@FeMn-10-800 showed great adaptability under different conditions, satisfactory activation repeatability and versatility. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) demonstrated that core-shell structure with rich porous of CN@FeMn-10-800 was achieved. Quenching test and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) indicated that surface bound oxygen and singlet oxygen (1O2) were the dominate reactive groups in this system. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) suggested that graphite N, Fe0, Fe3C and Mn(II) were the dominant active sites. Through the work, a simple strategy could be found to make high-value use of biomass and use it to effectively purified wastewater.

Abstract
Co-based catalysts play a crucial role in the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for degradation contaminants. However, the practical application of such catalysts is hindered by challenges like the self-aggregation of Co nanoparticles and leaching of Co2+. In this study, the Co-based catalyst Co-N/C@CL was synthesized from carboxymethylated lignin obtained by grafting abundant carboxymethyl groups into alkali lignin, in which the presence of these carboxymethyl groups enhanced its water solubility and allowed the formation of stable macromolecular complexes with Co2+. This catalyst exhibited a high specific surface area (521.8 m2·g-1) and a uniform distribution of Co nanoparticles. Consequently, the Co-N/C@CL/PMS system could completely remove 20 ppm tetracycline (TC) in 2 min at a rate of 2.404 min-1. Experimental results and DFT calculations revealed that the synergistic effect of lignin carbon and Co NPs accelerated the cleavage and electron transfer of OO bonds, thus promoting the formation of 1O2, OH and SO4-, with 1O2 emerging as the predominant contributor. Moreover, Co-N/C@CL displayed excellent cycling stability and low Co2+ leaching. This work not only provides a feasible strategy for the preparation of highly active and stable Co-based carbon materials but also offers a promising catalyst for the efficient degradation of TC.

Abstract
We further developed previous work on MXene materials prepared using molten salt methodology. We substituted single, with mixed salts, and reduced the melting point from >724 °C to <360 °C. Cobalt (Co) compounds were simultaneously etched and doped while the MXene material was created using various techniques in which Co compounds occur as Co3O4. The synthesized Co3O4/MXene compound was used as a peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activator that would generate free radicals to degrade antibiotic ornidazole (ONZ). Under optimal conditions, almost 100% of ONZ (30 mg/L) was degraded within 10 min. The Co3O4/MXene + PMS system efficiently degraded ONZ in natural water bodies, and had a broad pH adaptation range (4-11), and strong anion anti-interference. We investigated how the four active substances were generated using radical quenching and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. We identified 12 ONZ intermediates by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and propose a plausible degradative mechanism.

Abstract
Renewable biomass and its waste are considered among the most promising applications materials owing to the depletion of fossil fuel and concerns about environmental pollution. Notably, advanced porous carbon materials derived from carbon-rich biomass precursors exhibit controllable pore structures, large surface areas, natural microstructures, and abundant functional groups. In addition, these three-dimensional structures provide sufficient reaction sites and fascinating physicochemical properties that are conducive to heteroatom doping and functional modification. This review systematically summarizes the design methods and related mechanisms of biomass-derived porous carbon materials (BDPCMs), discusses how the synthesis conditions influence the structure and performance of the carbon material, and emphasizes the importance of its use in energy utilization and environmental remediation applications. Current BDPCMs challenges and future development strategies are finally discussed to provide systematic information for further synthesis and performance optimization, which are expected to lead to novel ideas for the future development of bio-based carbon materials.

Abstract
In recent years, sulfite (S(Ⅳ)), as an alternative to persulfates, has played a crucial role in eliminating antibiotics in wastewater, so there is an urgent need to develop a cheap, environmentally friendly, and effective catalyst. Zero-valent iron (ZVI) has great potential for activated S(Ⅳ) removal of organic pollutants, but its reactivity in water is reduced due to passivation. In this study, a micron-scale iron-carbon composite(mZVI@C-800) prepared via high-temperature calcination was coupled with S(Ⅳ) to degrade metronidazole (MNZ). Under the optimized reaction conditions of mZVI@C-800 dosage of 0.2 g/L and S(Ⅳ) concentration of 0.1 g/L, the MNZ removal rate was up to 81.5 % in acidic and neutral environments. The surface chemical properties of the catalysts were characterized by different analytical techniques, and the corresponding catalytic mechanism was analyzed based on these analytical results. As a result, Fe2+ is the main active site, and ·OH and SO4·- were the dominant active species. The increase in efficiency was attributed to the introduction of carbon to enhance the corrosion of mZVI further releasing more Fe2+. Additionally proposed were the potential response mechanism, the degradation path, and the toxicity change rule. These results demonstrate that the catalytic breakdown of antibiotics in wastewater treatment can be accelerated by the use of the outstanding catalytic material mZVI@C-800.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 327:116895. [PMID: 36463841 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2022.116895] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2022] [Revised: 11/24/2022] [Accepted: 11/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Chitosan, as a bio-friendly and abundant biochar precursor, was employed to prepare cobalt-based catalyst (Co3O4@BCC) by calcination for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to degrade phenacetin (PNT). Various characterization technologies and experimental designs were performed to investigate the physicochemical properties and catalytic performance of Co3O4@BCC. Approximately 99.0% of phenacetin (10 mg/L) was degraded in the system of Co3O4@BCC (0.05 g/L)/PMS (1.0 mM) within 15 min and the rate constant was 6 times higher than that in the system of Co3O4 (0.05 g/L)/PMS (1.0 mM). The results demonstrated that BCC as a carrier not only dispersed Co3O4 nanoparticles and improved the stability of catalyst, but also provided abundant electron-rich groups to facilitate the activation of PMS and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Co3O4@BCC composite also exhibited good universality and reusability. More than 90% of BPA, SIZ and CAP was degraded by Co3O4@BCC activated PMS within 15 min at pH 7. The degradation rate of PNT was recovered from 90% to 98.0% via the regeneration of the used catalyst after the third run (calcination at 400 °C for 5 min). SO4•-, •OH and 1O2 were identified to be responsible for PNT degradation. Furthermore, the activation mechanism of PMS and the possible pathways of PNT degradation were reasonably speculated according to the results of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), quenching experiments and HPLC-TOF-MS2. This study explored the application of chitosan as a recycled material and provides a feasible strategy for designing and fabricating environmentally friendly and efficient catalysts for PMS activation to degrade organic pollutants.

Oxidation of tetracycline hydrochloride with a photoenhanced MIL-101(Fe)/g-C 3N 4/PMS system: Synergetic effects and radical/nonradical pathways. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 251:114524. [PMID: 36634481 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.114524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2022] [Revised: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 01/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
MIL-101(Fe)-based catalysts have been widely used for degradation of organic pollutants based on peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. Hence, a facile calcination and hydrothermal method was used in this study to prepare a MIL-101(Fe)/g-C3N4 composite catalyst with high activity and high stability for PMS activation to degrade tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) under visible-light irradiation. We clearly elucidated the mechanism involved in the MIL-101(Fe)/g-C3N4 photo Fenton-catalyzed PMS activation process by separating the PMS activation and pollutant oxidation processes. The synergetic effects of MIL-101(Fe) and g-C3N4 involved MIL-101(Fe) acting as an electron shuttle mediating electron transfer from the organic substrate to PMS, accompanied by redox cycling of the surface Fe(II)/Fe(III). Multiple experimental results indicated that PMS was bound to the surface of MIL-101(Fe)/g-C3N4 during visible irradiation and generation of sulfate radicals (SO4•-), hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and superoxide anion free radicals (•O2-) for the radical pathway and singlet oxygen (1O2) and holes (h+) for the nonradical pathway. The major degradation pathways for TC can be described as demethylation, deamination, deamidation and carbonylation. This work provides valuable information and advances the fundamental understanding needed for design and syntheses of metal-free conjugated polymers modified by metal-organic frameworks for heterogeneous photo-Fenton reactions.

Abstract
Water pollution is a major concern for public health and a sustainable future. It is urgent to purify wastewater with effective methods to ensure a clean water supply. Most wastewater remediation techniques rely heavily on functional materials, and cost-effective materials are thus highly favorable. Of great environmental and economic significance, developing waste-derived materials for wastewater remediation has undergone explosive growth recently. Herein, the applications of waste (e.g., biowastes, electronic wastes, and industrial wastes)-derived materials for wastewater purification are comprehensively reviewed. Sophisticated strategies for turning wastes into functional materials are firstly summarized, including pyrolysis and combustion, hydrothermal synthesis, sol-gel method, co-precipitation, and ball milling. Moreover, critical experimental parameters within different design strategies are discussed. Afterward, recent applications of waste-derived functional materials in adsorption, photocatalytic degradation, electrochemical treatment, and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are analyzed. We mainly focus on the development of efficient functional materials via regulating the internal and external characteristics of waste-derived materials, and the material's property-performance correlation is also emphasized. Finally, the key future perspectives in the field of waste-derived materials-driven water remediation are highlighted.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have unique properties and stable structures, which have been widely used as templates/precursors to prepare well developed pore structure and high specific surface area materials. In this article, an innovative and facile method of crystal reorganization was designed by using MOFs as sacrificial templates to prepare a layered double hydroxide (LDH) nano-layer sheet structure through a pseudomorphic conversion process under alkaline conditions. The obtained CoMn-LDH and CoFe-LDH catalysts broke the ligand of MOFs and reorganized the structure on the basis of retaining a high specific surface area and a large number of pores, which had higher specific surface area and well developed pore structure compared with LDH catalysts prepared by traditional methods, and thus provide more active sites to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS). Due to the unique framework structure of MOFs, the MOF-derived CoMn-LDH and CoFe-LDH catalysts could provide more active sites to activate PMS, and achieve a 2,4-dichlorophenol degradation of 99.3% and 99.2% within 20 minutes, respectively. In addition the two LDH catalysts displayed excellent degradation performance for bisphenol A, ciprofloxacin and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicated that the valence state transformation of metal elements participated in PMS activation. Electron paramagnetic resonance manifested that sulfate radical (SO4•-) and singlet oxygen (1O2) were the main species for degrading pollutants. In addition, after the three-cycle experiment, the CoMn-LDH and CoFe-LDH catalysts also showed long-term stability with a slight activity decrease in the third cycle. The phytotoxicity assessment determined by the germination of mung beans proved that PMS activation by MOF-derived LDH catalysts can basically eliminate the phytotoxicity of a 2,4-D solution. This research not only developed high-activity LDH catalysts for PMS activation, but also expanded the environmental applications of MOF derivants.
