Abstract
High-temperature baking is a typical method to remove organic matter from diatoms, but it's not suitable for bio-silica because of the high crystallinity. This study provides a method using the VAUS™ to remove organic matter from diatoms more quickly and biocompatibly. Organic matter was removed by using VAUS™, while NaOCl was utilized to remove the organic matter from the silicate frustule. The optimal frequency for organic matter removal was investigated to domestically produced M. nummuloides. The removal efficiency of TOC/TN was calculated and analyzed. The C and Si elements were analyzed in EDS, while visual confirmation of organic matter removal was analyzed by using XRD. TOC RE% at a frequency of 35kHz exhibited the highest value, indicating a statistically significant difference. XRD analysis demonstrated that the organic matter was almost removed using NaOCl compared to the high-temperature baked M. nummuloides. In the EDS analysis, there were significant differences in the C and Si elements with respect to frequency. This is very similar to the values from the positive control group, high-temperature baked M. nummuloides. This new procedure of applying periodic negative pressure to NaOCl pre-treatment is considered to be an effective method of chemically removing organic matter from diatoms.

Abstract
The massive burning of fossil fuels has been important for economic and social development, but the increase in the CO2 concentration has seriously affected environmental sustainability. In industrial and agricultural production, light olefins are one of the most important feedstocks. Therefore, the preparation of light olefins by CO2 hydrogenation has been intensively studied, especially for the development of efficient catalysts and for the application in industrial production. Fe-based catalysts are widely used in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis due to their high stability and activity, and they also exhibit excellent catalytic CO2 hydrogenation to light olefins. This paper systematically summarizes and analyzes the reaction mechanism of Fe-based catalysts, alkali and transition metal modifications, interactions between active sites and carriers, the synthesis process, and the effect of the byproduct H2O on catalyst performance. Meanwhile, the challenges to the development of CO2 hydrogenation for light olefin synthesis are presented, and future development opportunities are envisioned.

Abstract
A lab-scale reactor with a fixed-bed hematite catalyst for the effective decomposition of H2O2 and bacteria inactivation was designed. The bactericidal effect is the largest at a low initial bacterial count of 2·103 CFU/L, which is typical for natural surface waters. When using a 5 mM H2O2 solution and a residence time of 104 min, the reduction in the number of E. coli bacteria is about 3.5-log. At a higher initial bacterial count of 1-2·104 CFU/L, a 5 mM H2O2 solution reduces the bacteria number by about 4-log. The H2O2 decomposition follows the log-linear kinetics of a first-order reaction while the bacterial inactivation does not. The kinetics of bacterial inactivation was described using the Weibull model in the modified form: log10(N0/N) = b · tn. The values of the non-linearity parameter n were found to be lower than 1, indicating that bacterial inactivation slows down over time. With increasing initial H2O2 concentration, the rate parameter b increases while the non-linearity parameter n decreases. With increasing temperature, both parameters increase. The stability of the catalyst has been proved by XRD, FTIR, SEM, and ICP-OES. The concentration of iron leaching into water during disinfection is much lower than the limit declared by WHO for iron in drinking water. The results show that technical-grade hematite is a promising Fenton-like catalyst for water disinfection. The fixed-bed reactor can be the basis of the mobile installations for water purification in emergencies.

Abstract
The release of organic contaminants has grown to be a major environmental concern and a threat to the ecology of water bodies. Persulfate-based Advanced Oxidation Technology (PAOT) is effective at eliminating hazardous pollutants and has an extensive spectrum of applications. Iron-based metal-organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) and their derivatives have exhibited great advantages in activating persulfate for wastewater treatment. In this article, we provide a comprehensive review of recent research progress on the significant potential of Fe-MOFs for removing antibiotics, organic dyes, phenols, and other contaminants from aqueous environments. Firstly, multiple approaches for preparing Fe-MOFs, including the MIL and ZIF series were introduced. Subsequently, removal performance of pollutants such as antibiotics of sulfonamides and tetracyclines (TC), organic dyes of rhodamine B (RhB) and acid orange 7 (AO7), phenols of phenol and bisphenol A (BPA) by various Fe-MOFs was compared. Finally, different degradation mechanisms, encompassing free radical degradation pathways and non-free radical degradation pathways were elucidated. This review explores the synthesis methods of Fe-MOFs and their application in removing organic pollutants from water bodies, providing insights for further refining the preparation of Fe-MOFs.

Degradation of typical flotation reagents using lead-zinc smelting slag as mediator for persulfate activation: Effect of gallic acid and Cr(VI) on the removal performance and fate of reactive oxygen species. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 344:123292. [PMID: 38182012 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.123292] [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: 10/07/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
To remediate the Cr(VI)-organic co-contaminants in a non-ferrous mining area, a gallic acid (GA) accelerated lead-zinc smelting slag (LZSS, a mine-sourced waste) mediated peroxodisulfate (PDS) Fenton-like system was constructed for degradation of two typical flotation reagents (benzotriazole and N-hydroxyphthalimide). LZSS acting as an in-situ Fe source in the Fenton-like process, could continuously release Fe species, while GA as a chelate with reducing properties was able to accelerate the rate-limiting step of Fe(III)/Fe(II) cycle to enhance the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In the LZSS/PDS/GA system, produced SO4•-, •OH and Fe(IV) jointly contributed to the contaminant removal through radical/nonradical pathways. However, when Cr(VI) coexisted with organic pollutants in the LZSS/PDS/GA system, the reduction of Cr(VI) consumed the electrons that otherwise would have been available for activation of PDS, resulting in fewer different ROS being produced. The increased concentration of GA, as an electron donor, promoted the production of SO4•-, but this promoting effect gradually diminished with increasing Cr(VI). Overall, the dominant ROS gradually transformed from Fe(IV) to SO4•-/•OH as the GA level increased or the Cr(VI) level decreased. Therefore, regulation of the relative roles of ROS by adjusting either the GA dosage or the Cr(VI) levels in the wastewater can improve availability of ROS for further specific removal of pollutants. This study offers an all-in-one solution for utilization of LZSS industrial waste and degradation of flotation reagents, and it also provides a new insight into the advanced environmental application of GA in remediation of Cr(VI)-organic co-contamination.

Abstract
Trichloroethylene (TCE) is an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) priority pollutant that is difficult to be removed by some remediation methods. For instance, TCE removal using persulfate (PS) activated by ferrous iron (Fe(ii)) has been tested but is limited by the unstable Fe(ii) concentration and the initial pH of contaminated water samples. Here we reported a new TCE removal system, in which tannic acid (TA) promoted the activation of PS with Fe(ii) (TA-Fe(ii)-PS system). The effect of initial pH, temperature, and concentrations of PS, Fe(ii), TA, inorganic anions and humic acid on TCE removal was investigated. We found that the TA-Fe(ii)-PS system with 80 mg L-1 of TA, 1.5 mM of Fe(ii) and 15 mM of PS yielded about 96.2-99.1% TCE removal in the pH range of 1.5-11.0. Radical quenching experiments were performed to identify active species. Results showed that SO4˙- and ˙OH were primarily responsible for TCE removal in the TA-Fe(ii)-PS system. In the presence of TA, the Fe-TA chelation and the reduction of TA could regulate Fe(ii) concentration and activate persulfate for continuously releasing reactive species under alkaline conditions. Based on the excellent removal performance for TCE, the TA-Fe(ii)-PS system becomes a promising candidate for controlling TCE in groundwater.

Abstract
It is of great significance to develop the effective technique to treat phenol-containing wastewater. Herein, Fe-based prussian blue analogues-derived zero valent iron (ZVI) was successfully synthesized by one-step calcination method. Owing to high specific surface area and rich active sites, ZVI-2 possessed excellent performance in charge transfer. Notably, in comparison with conventional ZVI and Fe2+, ZVI-2 can effectively activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for achieving rapid degradation of phenol, and the highest removal efficiency of phenol reached 94.9% within 24 min. More importantly, developed ZVI-2/PMS oxidation system with good stability displayed strong anti-interference capability. Interestingly, Fe0 loaded on the surface of ZVI-2 can efficiently break the O-O bond of PMS to generate reactive oxygen species (i.e., SO4•-, OH•, O2•- and 1O2). As main adsorption sites of PMS, the existence of oxygen vacancy promote the formation of high-valent transition metal complexes (namely ZVI-2≡Fe4+=O). Under the combined action of reactive oxygen species and ZVI-2≡Fe4+=O, phenol can be eventually degraded into CO2 and H2O. The possible degradation pathways of phenol were also investigated. Furthermore, proposed ZVI-2/PMS oxidation system displayed great potential for application in the field of wastewater treatment. All in all, current work provided a valuable reference for design and application of Fe-based catalysts in PS-AOPs.

Abstract
Corn straw and sludge-derived biochar composite (BC) loaded with CoFe2O4 was successfully prepared to activate peracetic acid (PAA) for efficient degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH). Within 60 s, 96 % TCH removal efficiency was achieved through a non-free radical degradation pathway, primarily driven by singlet oxygen (1O2). The mechanism involves the electron-rich groups on the biochar surface, which facilitate the cleavage of the PAA OO bond to generate •O2-/1O2 and provide electrons to induce the formation of high-valent Fe(IV) and Co(IV). The oxygen vacancies on the surface of the CoFe2O4-loaded biochar composite (CFB-2) contribute partially to 1O2 production through their transformation into a metastable intermediate with dissolved oxygen. Moreover, elevated temperatures further enhance PAA activation by CFB-2, leading to increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production through PAA decomposition, thereby promoting TCH removal. This study offers new insights into the catalysis of metal-loaded biochar for efficient TCH degradation via non-free radical generation.

Abstract
The fast rise of organic pollution has posed severe health risks to human beings and toxic issues to ecosystems. Proper disposal toward these organic contaminants is significant to maintain a green and sustainable development. Among various techniques for environmental remediation, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) can non-selectively oxidize and mineralize organic contaminants into CO2, H2O, and inorganic salts using free radicals that are generated from the activation of oxidants, such as persulfate, H2O2, O2, peracetic acid, periodate, percarbonate, etc., while the activation of oxidants using catalysts via Fenton-type reactions is crucial for the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), i.e., •OH, •SO4-, •O2-, •O3CCH3, •O2CCH3, •IO3, •CO3-, and 1O2. Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI), with a core of Fe0 that performs a sustained activation effect in AOPs by gradually releasing ferrous ions, has been demonstrated as a cost-effective, high reactivity, easy recovery, easy recycling, and environmentally friendly heterogeneous catalyst of AOPs. The combination of nZVI and AOPs, providing an appropriate way for the complete degradation of organic pollutants via indiscriminate oxidation of ROS, is emerging as an important technique for environmental remediation and has received considerable attention in the last decade. The following review comprises a short survey of the most recent reports in the applications of nZVI participating AOPs, their mechanisms, and future prospects. It contains six sections, an introduction into the theme, applications of persulfate, hydrogen peroxide, oxygen, and other oxidants-based AOPs catalyzed with nZVI, and conclusions about the reported research with perspectives for future developments. Elucidation of the applications and mechanisms of nZVI-based AOPs with various oxidants may not only pave the way to more affordable AOP protocols, but may also promote exploration and fabrication of more effective and sustainable nZVI materials applicable in practical applications.

Abstract
Co-activation of H2O2 with biochar and iron sources together provides an attractive strategy for efficient removal of refractory pollutants, because it can solve the problems of slow Fe(Ⅱ) regeneration in Fenton/Fenton-like processes and of low •OH yield in biochar-activated process. In this study, a wood-derived biochar (WB) was modified by heteroatom doping for the objective of enhancing its reactivity toward co-activation of H2O2. The performance of the co-activated system using doped biochars and trace dissolved Fe(Ⅲ) on oxidation of organic pollutants was evaluated for the first time. The characterizations using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectra and electrochemical analyses indicate that heteroatom doping introduced more defects in biochar and improved its electron transfer capacity. The oxidation experiments show that heteroatom doping improved the performance of biochar in the co-activated process, in which the N,S-codoped biochar (NSB) outperformed the N-doped biochar (NB) on oxidation of pollutants. The reaction rate constant (kobs) for oxidation of sulfadiazine in NSB + Fe + H2O2 is 2.25 times that in NB + Fe + H2O2, and is 72.9 times that in the Fenton-like process without biochar, respectively. The mechanism investigations indicate that heteroatom doping enhanced biochar's reactivity on catalyzing the decomposition of H2O2 and on reduction of Fe(Ⅲ) due to the improved electron transfer/donation capacity. In comparison with N-doping, N,S-codoping provided additional electron donor (thiophenic C-S-C) for faster regeneration of Fe(Ⅱ) with less amount of doping reagent used. Furthermore, co-activation with NSB maintained to be efficient at a milder acidic pH than Fenton/Fenton-like processes, and can be used for oxidation of different pollutants and in real water. Therefore, this research provides a novel, sustainable and cost-efficient method for oxidation of refractory pollutants.

Abstract
Urbanization and industrialization have exerted significant adverse effects on water quality, resulting in a growing need for reliable and eco-friendly treatment technologies. Persulfate (PS)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are emerging as viable technologies to treat challenging industrial wastewaters or remediate groundwater impacted by hazardous wastes. While the generated reactive species can degrade a variety of priority organic contaminants through radical and nonradical pathways, there is a lack of systematic and in-depth comparison of these pathways for practical implementation in different treatment scenarios. Our comparative analysis of reaction rate constants for radical vs. nonradical species indicates that radical-based AOPs may achieve high removal efficiency of organic contaminants with relatively short contact time. Nonradical AOPs feature advantages with minimal water matrix interference for complex wastewater treatments. Nonradical species (e.g., singlet oxygen, high-valent metals, and surface activated PS) preferentially react with contaminants bearing electron-donating groups, allowing enhancement of degradation efficiency of known target contaminants. For byproduct formation, analytical limitations and computational chemistry applications are also considered. Finally, we propose a holistically estimated electrical energy per order of reaction (EE/O) parameter and show significantly higher energy requirements for the nonradical pathways. Overall, these critical comparisons help prioritize basic research on PS-based AOPs and inform the merits and limitations of system-specific applications.

Abstract
Many advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) use Fenton-like reactions to degrade organic pollutants by activating peroxymonosulfate (HSO5-, PMS) or peroxydisulfate (S2O82-, PDS) with Fe(H2O)62+ (FeaqII). This paper presents results on the kinetics and mechanisms of reactions between FeaqII and PMS or PDS in the absence and presence of bicarbonate (HCO3-) at different pH. In the absence of HCO3-, FeaqIV, rather than the commonly assumed SO4•-, is the dominant oxidizing species. Multianalytical methods verified the selective conversion of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and phenyl methyl sulfoxide (PMSO) to dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2) and phenyl methyl sulfone (PMSO2), respectively, confirming the generation of FeaqIV by the FeaqII-PMS/PDS systems without HCO3-. Significantly, in the presence of environmentally relevant concentrations of HCO3-, a carbonate radical anion (CO3•-) becomes the dominant reactive species as confirmed by the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis. The new findings suggest that the mechanisms of the persulfate-based Fenton-like reactions in natural environments might differ remarkably from those obtained in ideal conditions. Using sulfonamide antibiotics (sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and sulfadimethoxine (SDM)) as model contaminants, our study further demonstrated the different reactivities of FeaqIV and CO3•- in the FeaqII-PMS/PDS systems. The results shed significant light on advancing the persulfate-based AOPs to oxidize pollutants in natural water.

Abstract
Sulfate radical (SO4•-) based advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs) is a very important chemical oxidation technology for the degradation of recalcitrant organic pollutants in water and has been well developed. Recently, transition metals or their oxides-modified biochar has been widely used as the catalyst to catalyze peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and peroxydisulfate (PS) in SR-AOPs due to their outstanding properties (e.g., large surface area, high stability, abound catalytic sites, and diversity of material design, etc.). These composite materials not only combine the respective beneficial characteristics of biochar and transition metals (or their oxides) but also often present synergistic effects between the components. In this review, we present the synthesis of different types of transition metal (or metal oxides)/biochar-based catalysts and their application in SR-AOPs. The catalytic mechanism, including the generation process of free radicals and other reaction pathways on the surface of the catalyst were also carefully discussed. Particular attention has been paid to the synergistic effects between the components that result in enhanced catalytic performance. At the end of this review, the future development prospects of this technology are proposed.

Abstract
The Fenton and Fenton-like reactions are of major importance due to their role as a source of oxidative stress in all living systems and due to their use in advanced oxidation technologies. For many years, there has been a debate whether the reaction of FeII(H2O)62+ with H2O2 yields OH• radicals or FeIV=Oaq. It is now known that this reaction proceeds via the formation of the intermediate complex (H2O)5FeII(O2H)+/(H2O)5FeII(O2H2)2+ that decomposes to form either OH• radicals or FeIV=Oaq, depending on the pH of the medium. The intermediate complex might also directly oxidize a substrate present in the medium. In the presence of FeIIIaq, the complex FeIII(OOH)aq is formed. This complex reacts via FeII(H2O)62+ + FeIII(OOH)aq → FeIV=Oaq + FeIIIaq. In the presence of ligands, the process often observed is Ln(H2O)5−nFeII(O2H) → L•+ + Ln−1FeIIIaq. Thus, in the presence of small concentrations of HCO3− i.e., in biological systems and in advanced oxidation processes—the oxidizing radical formed is CO3•−. It is evident that, in the presence of other transition metal complexes and/or other ligands, other radicals might be formed. In complexes of the type Ln(H2O)5−nMIII/II(O2H−), the peroxide might oxidize the ligand L without oxidizing the central cation M. OH• radicals are evidently not often formed in Fenton or Fenton-like reactions.

Abstract
The secondary effluent of the wastewater treatment plant is considered as one of the reused water sources and needs advanced treatment to meet increasingly stringent water treatment standards. Ultrafiltration, as one of the most widely used advanced treatment technologies, is limited due to membrane fouling, and coagulation and pre-oxidation have received extensive attention as pretreatment methods to alleviate membrane fouling. This research proposes a new method of Fe(II)-activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) coagulation and a pre-oxidation system coupled with ultrafiltration (UF) to treat secondary effluent from sewage plants, separately evaluating the treatment effect under different molar ratios of Fe(II)/PMS. The Fe(II)/PMS decontamination mechanism and membrane fouling control effect were elucidated through pollutant removal efficiency, membrane morphology, membrane flux trend, and membrane fouling resistance distribution. According to the experimental results, the optimal effect of organic matter removal and membrane fouling mitigation was achieved at the Fe(II)/PMS dosage of 60/60 μM/μM (molar ratio 1:1). The efficiency of pretreatment methods in removing organics and fluorescent components and mitigating membrane fouling followed the order of Fe(II)/PMS > Fe(III) > inactivated PMS. Fe(II)/PMS could produce a synergistic effect in a high concentration state (60 μM), relying on the dual effects of coagulation and oxidation to alleviate membrane fouling. Coagulation and pre-oxidation by Fe(II)/PMS significantly reduced the clogging of membrane pores and the proportion of irreversible resistance, effectively controlling membrane fouling and improving effluent quality. SEM images further confirmed its effectiveness, and EPR results unequivocally indicated that its synergistic mechanism was mediated by •OH and SO4•−. The research results can provide ideas for advanced wastewater treatment and secondary effluent reuse.
