Abstract
3-chloro-4-fluoraniline (FCA) is an important intermediate for the synthesis of antibiotics, herbicides and insecticides, and has significant environmental health hazards. Catalytic hydrogenation technology is widely used in pretreatment of halogenated organics due to its simple process and excellent performance. However, compared with the research of high activity hydrogenation catalyst, the research of efficient utilization of hydrogen source under mild conditions is not sufficient. In this work, micro-nano H2 bubbles are produced in situ by electrolytic water and active metal replacement, and their apparent properties are studied. The result show that the H2 bubbles have a size distribution in the range of 150-900 nm, which can rapidly reduce the REDOX potential of the water and maintain it in a hydrogen-rich state for a long time. Under the action of Pd/C catalyst, atomic hydrogen (H•) produced by dissociative adsorption can sequentially hydrogenate FCA to aniline. The H• utilization ratios of the above two hydrogen supply pathways reach 6.20% and 4.94% respectively, and H2 consumption is reduced by tens of times (≥50 → ≈1.0 mL/min). The research provides technical support for the efficient removal of halogenated refractory pollutants in water and the development of hydrogen economy.

Abstract
Catalyzed reduction processes have been recognized as important and supplementary technologies for water treatment, with the specific aims of resource recovery, enhancement of bio/chemical-treatability of persistent organic pollutants, and safe handling of oxygenate ions. Palladium (Pd) has been widely used as a catalyst/electrocatalyst in these reduction processes. However, due to the limited reserves and high cost of Pd, it is essential to gain a better understanding of the Pd-catalyzed decontamination process to design affordable and sustainable Pd catalysts. This review provides a systematic summary of recent advances in understanding Pd-catalyzed reductive decontamination processes and designing Pd-based nanocatalysts for the reductive treatment of water-borne pollutants, with special focus on the interactions and transformation mechanisms of pollutant molecules on Pd catalysts at the atomic scale. The discussion begins by examining the adsorption of pollutants onto Pd sites from a thermodynamic viewpoint. This is followed by an explanation of the molecular-level reaction mechanism, demonstrating how electron-donors participate in the reductive transformation of pollutants. Next, the influence of the Pd reactive site structure on catalytic performance is explored. Additionally, the process of Pd-catalyzed reduction in facilitating the oxidation of pollutants is briefly discussed. The longevity of Pd catalysts, a crucial factor in determining their practicality, is also examined. Finally, we argue for increased attention to mechanism study, as well as precise construction of Pd sites under batch synthesis conditions, and the use of Pd-based catalysts/electrocatalysts in the treatment of concentrated pollutants to facilitate resource recovery.

Guo Y, Li Y, Wang Z. Electrocatalytic hydro-dehalogenation of halogenated organic pollutants from wastewater: A critical review. WATER RESEARCH 2023; 234:119810. [PMID: 36889094 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2023.119810] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2022] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Halogenated organic pollutants are often found in wastewater effluent although it has been usually treated by advanced oxidation processes. Atomic hydrogen (H*)-mediated electrocatalytic dehalogenation, with an outperformed performance for breaking the strong carbon-halogen bonds, is of increasing significance for the efficient removal of halogenated organic compounds from water and wastewater. This review consolidates the recent advances in the electrocatalytic hydro-dehalogenation of toxic halogenated organic pollutants from contaminated water. The effect of the molecular structure (e.g., the number and type of halogens, electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups) on dehalogenation reactivity is firstly predicted, revealing the nucleophilic properties of the existing halogenated organic pollutants. The specific contribution of the direct electron transfer and atomic hydrogen (H*)-mediated indirect electron transfer to dehalogenation efficiency has been established, aiming to better understand the dehalogenation mechanisms. The analyses of entropy and enthalpy illustrate that low pH has a lower energy barrier than that of high pH, facilitating the transformation from proton to H*. Furthermore, the quantitative relationship between dehalogenation efficiency and energy consumption shows an exponential increase of energy consumption for dehalogenation efficiency increasing from 90% to 100%. Lastly, challenges and perspectives are discussed for efficient dehalogenation and practical applications.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 435:128998. [PMID: 35487007 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.128998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2022] [Revised: 03/29/2022] [Accepted: 04/20/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The development of catalysts with high atom utilization and activity is the biggest challenge for electrocatalytic hydrodechlorination (EHDC) technology. Herein, a design strategy of TiO2@PDA inorganic-organic core-shell skeleton for loading lower dosage of noble palladium (Pd) with robust activity is reported. The self-supported TiO2@PDA nanorod arrays provides exposed surface area for anchoring Pd and PDA as interlayer controls the Pd nucleation to form nanodots with high dispersion, realizing high atom utilization. Moreover, the strong interaction between PDA and Pd realizes the coexistence of electron-rich and deficient Pd species with suitable proportion, which facilitate the H* formation and the C-Cl bond activation, respectively, resulting in the promoted activity. The optimal TiO2@PDA/Pd electrode exhibits a low dosage of Pd (0.093 mg cm-2) and excellent activity for 4-chlorophenol reduction with a mass activity (MA) of 23.96 min-1g-1, which is 3.31 times as high as that of TiO2/Pd. The design scheme with inorganic-organic core-shell skeleton as support is benefit for developing highly efficient and lower price elctrocatalysts for EHDC.

Tang H, Bian Z, Peng Y, Li S, Wang H. Stepwise dechlorination of chlorinated alkenes on an Fe-Ni/rGO/Ni foam cathode: Product control by one-electron-transfer reactions. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 433:128744. [PMID: 35390618 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.128744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Revised: 03/08/2022] [Accepted: 03/17/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Research on the stepwise hydrogenation dechlorination of chlorinated alkenes forms an important basis for eliminating toxic intermediate incomplete dechlorination products. The low-cost Fe-Ni/rGO/Ni foam cathode both supplied electrons and exhibited hydrogen conversion activity, and it was an excellent tool for the study of stepwise dechlorination. Electrochemical reduction experiments were carried out on homologous chlorinated alkenes. The conditions affecting the dechlorination efficiency and the repeatability of the catalytic electrode were analyzed. The trichloroethylene (TCE) removal rates were all above 78.0% over 8 cycles. The maximum EHDC efficiency was as high as 86.1%, and the faradaic efficiency was over 78.8%. Electrochemical methods combined with the calculation of the electron transfer number are proposed to verify the good hydrogenation ability of the electrode and the stepwise reduction ability at proper voltages. The stepwise dechlorination electroreduction characteristics of chlorinated alkenes were explained. The C-Cl bond dissociation enthalpies of chlorinated alkenes were calculated by density functional theory (DFT), and the 4-Cl and 5-Cl of TCE were expected to be removed first. The stepwise cleavage of chlorinated alkenes on Fe-Ni/rGO/Ni foam during dichlorination provided a reference for controlling the reduction products of chlorinated alkenes and preventing the pollution caused by toxic intermediate products formed during incomplete dechlorination.
