Qi X, Rao D, Zhang J, Sun B. The altered treatment efficiency of the bisulfite/permanganate process by chloride. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 459:132173. [PMID: 37531765 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.132173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2023] [Revised: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/04/2023]
Abstract
Bisulfite-activated permanganate (S(IV)/Mn(VII)) process has proven to be a promising method for rapidly degrading micropollutants. Previous studies have shown that the treatment efficiency of the S(IV)/Mn(VII) process suffer from significant water matrix effects while the mechanism still remains unclear. This study systematically investigates the influence of chloride, which is a common water constituent, on the S(IV)/Mn(VII) process. Addition of chloride decreased the removal of methyl phenyl sulfoxide, phenol, benzoic acid and carbamazepine by the S(IV)/Mn(VII) process but increased dimethoxybenzene removal. The distribution of reactive species in the S(IV)/Mn(VII) process in the absence and presence of chloride was determined with relative rate method. The S(IV)/Mn(VII) process primarily relies on SO4•- and reactive manganese species (RMnS) for pollutant abatement while dosing chloride decreased the concentration of these reactive species. Reactive chlorine species (RCS), such as Cl2•- and ClO•, are formed through the reaction of SO4•- with chloride, and become more important at high concentrations of chloride. RMnS includes Mn(VI), Mn(V) and Mn(III), but none of these species are capable of oxidizing chloride. However, chloride retarded the consumption of bisulfite which reduced RMnS and RCS in turn. DOM inhibited pollutant removal by the S(IV)/Mn(VII) process while the impact mechanism was significantly altered by chloride. Additionally, the study observed a synergistic inhibition of DOM and chloride on the degradation of pollutants that are highly reactive towards Cl2•- and ClO•.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 857:159254.

Abstract
A novel magnetic core-shell Fe3O4@SiO2@CdS embedded graphene oxide (GO) composite was prepared for the visible-light-driven photodegradation of high ring number polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The potential application of GO-Fe3O4@SiO2@CdS was evaluated through the photodegradation of phenanthrene and pyrene in deionized water, tap water, and lake water, respectively. It was found that GO-Fe3O4@SiO2@CdS could remove 86.4 % of phenanthrene and 93.4 % of pyrene, suggesting its potential for the degradation of high-ring number PAHs. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that pyrene has more active sites attacked by free radicals. The photoelectrochemical measurement and quenching experiments indicate that GO can transfer photoelectrons efficiently, resulting in the crucial radicals (O2-, OH and 1O2). More importantly, the photocatalytic activity kept almost constant during five cycles, confirming the significant anti-photocorrosion of GO-Fe3O4@SiO2@CdS. This work provides some new insights into the removal of PAHs with high-ring numbers in the natural water environment.

Abstract
Antibiotic abuse will seriously affect the ecology and environment. Photocatalytic oxidation technology based on carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has been widely adopted to treat wastewater containing antibiotics. Here, a novel composite photocatalyst MCNT was prepared by loading manganese oxide (Mn3O4) on the surface of g-C3N4 nanotubes (CNT). Three typical antibiotics, trimethoprim (TMP), norfloxacin (NOR), and tetracycline (TC) were used as model contaminants to evaluate the oxidative properties of prepared materials. Compared with bulk g-C3N4, the degradation rates of TMP, NOR, and TC catalyzed by MCNT-5 were increased by 2, 3, and 1.4 times, respectively, mainly due to 1) the larger specific surface area of the nanotube structure of CNT, which provides abundant active sites for antibiotic adsorption and catalytic oxidation, and 2) the loading of Mn3O4, which promotes the directional migration of photogenerated charges and improves the separation efficiency of photogenerated electrons and holes. The free radical capture and quenching experiments confirmed that MCNT degraded the target organic pollutants with hydroxyl radical (·OH) and singlet oxygen (1O2) as the main active oxidants. This catalyst maintained 80% photocatalytic oxidation performance after five cyclic experiments. This study provides new insights into developing efficient, stable, and environmentally-friendly photocatalysts and provides a new dimension to mitigate the antibiotic pollution problem.

Abstract
We designed a photocatalyst and developed sustainable wastewater purification technology, which have significant advantages in effectively solving the global problem of drinking water shortage. In this study, a new nanocomposite was reported and shown to be a catalyst with excellent performance; CuO was coated successively onto functionalized nano γ-Al2O3, and this novel structure could provide abundant active sites. We evaluated the performance of the CuO@γ-Al2O3 nanocomposite catalyst for polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) degradation under visible light irradiation. Under optimized conditions (calcination temperature, 450 °C; mass ratio of γ-Al2O3:Cu(NO3)2·3H2O, 1:15; pH value, 7; catalyst dosage, 2.6 g/L; reaction temperature, 20 °C; and H2O2 dosage, 0.2 g/mL), the CuO@γ-Al2O3 nanocomposite catalyst presented an excellent PVA removal rate of 99.21%. After ten consecutive degradation experiments, the catalyst could still maintain a PVA removal rate of 97.58%, thus demonstrating excellent reusability. This study provides an efficient and easy-to-prepare photocatalyst and proposes a mechanism for the synergistic effect of the photocatalytic reaction and the Fenton-like reaction.

Abstract
Titanate nanotube (TNT) was coated with the cyclic oligosaccharides (carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin, CM-β-CD) to obtain a photocatalyst (CM-β-CD-TNT) for efficiently activating molecular oxygen and removing the target contaminant. The hydrophobic cavity and the large specific surface area of the photocatalyst provide abundant active sites for activating molecular oxygen. The free radical capture experiment and quenching experiment showed that cyclodextrin could facilitate adsorption and activation of molecular oxygen to produce O2·-. Therefore, compared with the pristine TNT, CM-β-CD-TNT accelerated the oxidation efficiency of paracetamol (APAP) by 3.4 times. Moreover, the ring cleavage reaction induced by CM-β-CD-TNT effectively reduced the acute toxicity of wastewater containing APAP. Furthermore, 100% of bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol S (BPS), phenol, 2,4-dichlorophen (2,4-DCP), and carbamazepine (CBZ) were degraded by CM-β-CD-TNT after 2.5 h Ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation. This strategy provides a new dimension for the advanced treatment of organic wastewater by organic macrocyclic molecules modified materials.

Abstract
Zinc oxide (ZnO), a widely used ultraviolet (UV) degrading substance, offers high selectivity for wastewater treatment, but the leaching of ZnO into water could cause secondary contamination. Using porous substrates to fix and load ZnO is a promising technical method to improve the water purification efficiency and recycling durability of ZnO. However, limited by the slow kinetics and shielding effects, it is challenging to use traditional techniques to introduce ZnO into the interior of a hollow structure. Here, inspired by an ancient dyeing procedure, we formed a unique single-molecule bio-interfacial entanglement as an absorption layer to capture the catalyst for ZnO electroless deposition (ELD) on the surface of natural ultrathin hollow-structured Kapok fibers. With curcumin serving as a linking bridge, ELD allowed the spontaneous formation of intensive ZnO nanocrystals on both the outer and inner walls. ZnO-kapok as the catalyst for ultraviolet photodecomposition of organic pollutants (methylene blue (MB) and phenol as model pollutants) delivered a decomposition efficiency of 80% and outstanding durability. Further modification of the ZnO-kapok catalyst by doping with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) showed an improvement in photodegradation performance of 90% degradation under 2-h irradiation with 21.85 W/dm2 light power. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report featuring ZnO loading on both the outer and inner walls of a fiber-structured hollow kapok material, which provides inspiration for immobilization of metallic oxides on hollow-structured materials for further applications in renewable catalysis, chemical engineering, and energy storage fields.

Abstract
In this study photo-catalytic degradation of chlorobenzene from aqueous solutions using CQD decorated Fe-doped TiO2 immobilized in Glass Fibers (GF) was investigated. Characteristics of the synthesized photo-catalyst were determined by EF-SEM, EDX, BET, XRD, FTIR, and DRS analysis. Additionally, DRS analysis demonstrated adding CQD to the TiO2-Fe reduced its band gap energy from 2.96 eV to 2.91eV, while that was 3.10 eV for undoped TiO2. Among that three photo-catalysts, GF/CQD(4.5 wt%) decorated Fe-TiO2 composite had performance nearly 100.0%, when pH was 5 and low concentration of chlorobenzene. In addition, GF/CQD(4.5 wt%) decorated Fe-TiO2 composite show it could be well applied for five times and with a little reduction on the performance. Also, no detectable Fe found to be released from the composite. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for E. coli bacteria was 12.2 mg L-1 of chlorobenzene residual. Our findings show the catalyst was successful for chlorobenzene removal in the wastewater effluent. In conclusion, present hybrid composite could successfully and safely remove chlorobenzene from synthetic aqueous solution.

Abstract
Herein, a novel BiOBr photocatalyst with partial surface modification by graphitized C (BiOBr-Cg) was synthesized through a hydrothermal method with hydrothermal carbonation carbon (HTCC) as a slow-releasing carbon source and characterized by experimental and theoretical methods. BiOBr-Cg exhibited excellent visible-light photocatalytic performance toward various refractory pollutants, such as bisphenol A, ibuprofen, ciprofloxacin, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, and diphenhydramine. The characterization results demonstrate that a strong molecular orbital interaction occurs between graphitized C and BiOBr, resulting in the formation of a new surface valence band on graphitized C. This not only promotes the oxidation of pollutants by surface holes but also reduces the recombination of carriers during the bulk phase transfer process, thereby increasing the number of photogenerated carriers. Intriguingly, the analytical results for degradation intermediates and other characterization techniques demonstrate that the pollutants adsorbed on the graphitized C of BiOBr-Cg can be directly excited through light irradiation and react along the organic radical degradation pathway in addition to pollutant degradation by holes and HO2•/O2•-.

Abstract
This study presents the synthesis of silica particles bearing two beta-cyclodextrin (BCD) (beta-cyclodextrin-BCD-OH and diamino butane monosubstituted beta-cyclodextrin-BCD-NH2). The successful synthesis of the BCD-modified silica was confirmed by FT-IR and TGA. Using contact angle measurements, BET analysis and SEM characterization, a possible formation mechanism for the generation of silica particles bearing BCD derivatives on their surface was highlighted. The obtained modified silica displayed the capacity to remove bisphenol A (BPA) from wastewater due to the presence of the BCD moieties on the surface of the silica. The kinetic analysis showed that the adsorption reached equilibrium after 180 min for both materials with qe values of 107 mg BPA/g for SiO2-BCD-OH and 112 mg BPA/g for SiO2-BCD-NH2. The process followed Ho's pseudo-second-order adsorption model sustaining the presence of adsorption sites with different activities. The fitting of the Freundlich isotherm model on the experimental results was also evaluated, confirming the BCD influence on the materials' adsorption properties.

Abstract
The development of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) has recently drawn a lot of scientific interest in water treatment due to the unique properties such as tunable porosities, large pore volumes, hierarchical structures, excellent adsorption and regeneration performances. MOFs represent an eco-friendly alternative to conventional adsorbents especially for the adsorptive removal of noxious organic pollutants from aqueous solution. Advanced MOFs' performances are justified by the introduction of functional groups, magnetic moieties, and specific foreign materials onto MOFs. This however leads to increase in the manufacturing costs of MOFs and consequently possess a huge challenge in large-scale applications. This review hence critically discusses the recent progresses in the development of MOFs-based adsorbents for the removal of selected organic pollutants (e.g., dyes, antibiotics and pesticides) from aqueous solution. Furthermore, major interaction mechanisms between MOFs and organic pollutants in response to numerous experimental conditions, such as pH, temperature, coexisting ions are put forward. Finally, some recommendations in support for designing MOFs with improved adsorption performances are also highlighted.

Abstract
In this study, flake-like MoO3-ZnO composite was prepared using a simple and robust electrochemical setup. The composite was characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, elemental analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, photoluminescence, zeta potential analysis, and electrochemical impedance study. The modified ZnO shows a remarkable catalytic activity towards the photodegradation of three potentially hazardous dyes, malachite green, crystal violet, and methylene blue. More than 95% of both malachite green and crystal violet degraded within 140 min under visible light irradiation. Scavenger studies reveal that OH· radicals produced by the photo-separated charges on MoO3-ZnO are responsible for the degradation of all three dyes. The photoactive charge carriers show less recombination rate as evidenced by the photoluminescence spectrum due to the interparticle charge migration process. This work suggests a new versatile procedure for the synthesis of MoO3-ZnO composites and establishes its photocatalytic efficacy under visible light with three common pollutant dyes found in wastewater.

Abstract
In this photocatalytic study, removal of bisphenol-A from aqueous solution was studied using the GF/Fe-TiO2-CQD composite. Due to its health and environmental effects, this compound should be disposed of sources that are mainly industrial wastewater. The phis-chemical properties of the composite were determined by traditional analyzes of EF-SEM, EDX, BET, XRD, FTIR and DRS. In this study, different ratios of CQD in the composite (1.5, 4.5 and 7.5 wt%), pH, and bisphenol-A concentration as variable parameters were investigated. All analyzes, EF-SEM, EDX, BET, XRD, FTIR, show that the GF/Fe-TiO2-CQD composite is well coated on glass fibers (GF) and all the elements in the catalyst are present. On the other hand, DRS analysis showed that CQD reduces the band gap of Fe-TiO2 from 2.96 eV to 2.91 eV, it was 3.10 eV for TiO2. Among different catalysts, GF/Fe-TiO2-CQD4.5wt% has the best performance. The results showed that for GF/Fe-TiO2-CQD4.5wt%, optimum for the process was at pH = 6 in low concentration of bisphenol-A. The first order model for the photocatalytic degradation process were well studied. In addition, GF/Fe-TiO2-CQD4.5wt% showed that it can be used many times with a minimal reduction in performance. As a result, the GF/Fe-TiO2-CQD4.5wt% composite can successfully remove bisphenol-A form in synthetic aqueous solution. However, it is necessary to further studies to applied that for real water source in water and wastewater treatment plants.

Abstract
The nanoreactor concept and its application as a modality to carry out chemical reactions in confined and compartmentalized structures continues to receive increasing attention. Micelle-based nanoreactors derived from various classes of surfactant demonstrate outstanding potential for chemical synthesis. Polysaccharide (glycan-based) surfactants are an emerging class of biodegradable, non-toxic, and sustainable alternatives over conventional surfactant systems. The unique structure of glycan-based surfactants and their micellar structures provide a nanoenvironment that differs from that of the bulk solution, and supported by chemical reactions with uniquely different reaction rates and mechanisms. In this review, the aggregation of glycan-based surfactants to afford micelles and their utility for the synthesis of selected classes of reactions by the nanoreactor technique is discussed. Glycan-based surfactants are ecofriendly and promising surfactants over conventional synthetic analogues. This contribution aims to highlight recent developments in the field of glycan-based surfactants that are relevant to nanoreactors, along with future opportunities for research. In turn, coverage of research for glycan-based surfactants in nanoreactor assemblies with tailored volume and functionality is anticipated to motivate advanced research for the synthesis of diverse chemical species.

Abstract
Encapsulation metal oxides into carbon frameworks is a good strategy to synthesis high activity and stable catalyst. Here, Fe3O4 nanoparticles (∼20 nm) were firmly encapsulated in the graphene aerogels by a simple and environmentally friendly method (Fe3O4/GAs), for activating persulfate (PS) to degrade malachite green (MG) under simulated sunlight. A strong electron conduction was generated between the Fe3O4 nanoparticles and graphene sheets to improve the cycle of Fe(II)/Fe(III), and the MG degradation over a wide pH rage (3-9) was enhanced greatly. The MG molecule was decomposed into 12 intermediates and two possible pathways was proposed. More importantly, toxicity test and Toxicity Estimation Software (T.E.S.T.) proved that the toxicity of MG can be effectively controlled by Fe3O4/GAs + PS + light system. In addition to the high catalytic activity, Fe3O4/GAs exhibited a good stability and reusability due to the strong interaction between Fe3O4 and graphene layers. The degradation efficiency remained above 87% after six cycles, and the leaching amount of iron in each cycle was less than 0.125 wt%. SO4•- was the dominate radical for MG degradation and the heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction was mainly performed on the surface of catalyst. This work lay a foundation for applying Fe3O4/GAs as a highly efficient, stable and reusable heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst for future applications.
