Wang J, Duan X, Ren Y. Efficient electrochemical degradation of ceftazidime by Ti 3+ self-doping TiO 2 nanotube-based Sb-SnO 2 nanoflowers as an intermediate layer on a modified PbO 2 electrode. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 356:141853. [PMID: 38582161 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141853] [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: 01/22/2024] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
Ceftazidime (CAZ) is an emerging organic pollutant with a long-lasting presence in the environment. Although some PbO2 materials exhibit degradation capabilities, inefficient electron transport in the substrate layer and the problem of electrode stability still limit their use. Here, an interfacial design in which TiO2 nanotube arrays generate Ti3+ self-doping oxide substrate layers and highly active 3D Sb-SnO2 nanoflowers-like interlayers was used to prepare PbO2 anodes for efficient degradation of CAZ. Interestingly, after implementing Ti3+ self-doping in the PbO2 anode base layer and introducing 3D nanoflowers-like structures, the capacity for •OH generation increased significantly. The modified electrode exhibited 5-fold greater •OH generation capacity compared to the unmodified electrode, and a 2.7-fold longer accelerated electrode lifetime. The results indicate that interfacial engineering of the base and intermediate layers of the electrodes can improve the electron transfer efficiency, promote the formation of •OH, and extend the anode lifetime of the activated CAZ system.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) can directly degrade and mineralize organic pollutants (OPs) in water by generating reactive oxygen species with strong oxidizing ability. The development of advanced electrode materials with high catalytic performance, low energy consumption, no secondary pollution, and long lifespan has become a challenge that must be addressed in this field. A heterojunction catalyst loaded with Co3O4 on TDNAs (Co3O4/RTDNAs) was designed and constructed by a simple and efficient pyrolysis (Co3O4/TDNAs) and electrochemical reduction. Co3O4 can be uniformly distributed on the inner wall and surface of the TiO2 nanotubes, enhancing the specific surface area while forming a tight conductive interface with TiO2. This facilitates rapid transmission of electrons, thereby assisting Co3O4 in quickly activating PS to form reactive oxygen species. The Ti3+ and Ov generated in Co3O4/RTDNAs can significantly improve the electrocatalytic degradation of OPs. Also, the interface formed by Co3O4 and RTDNAs will effectively suppress Co2+ leakage, thereby reducing the risk of secondary pollution. When the reaction conditions were 1 mM PMS (PDS) and a current density of 5 mA/cm2 in the EA-PMS (PDS)/Co3O4/RTDNA system, 30 mg/L TC can achieve 83.24 % (81.89 %) removal in 120 min, with very low cobalt ion leaching, while the energy consumption was reduced significantly. Therefore, EA-PS/Co3O4/RTDNA system has strong stability and a high potential for treating the OPs in AOPs.

Abstract
Developing low-cost, green, high-performing electrode materials to address environmental pollutants and the energy crisis is significant but challenging. Herein, the bimetallic iron cobalt phosphide coated in waste biomass-derived N, P co-doping carbon (CoxFe1-xP@NPC) is constructed. Furthermore, the active site density and the water decomposition energy barrier of surface-coated NPC are modulated by optimizing the electronic structure of CoxFe1-xP via doping engineering. The Fe-modulated CoxFe1-xP@NPC exhibits a hierarchical porous self-supporting structure and excellent physical & chemical properties with excellent electrooxidation performance, achieving over 95% removal of TCH within 60 min. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations further confirms that N carries more positive charge and P carries more negative charge in the NPC of CoxFe1-xP@NPC with Fe modulation, which can promote the adsorption and dissociation of water molecules. Of note, Co0.75Fe025P@NPC displays a low water dissociation energy barrier to produce ·OH and a high energy barrier to produce O2 than its counterparts. This study offers new insight into controllable modulation of biomass carbon-based composite electrode catalytic activity for high-efficiency degradation of contaminants.

Molecules 2023; 28:6993. [PMID: 37836836 PMCID: PMC10574806 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28196993] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2023] [Revised: 09/23/2023] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Efficient and stable electrode materials are urgently required for wastewater treatment in the electrocatalytic degradation of toxic and refractory organic pollutants. Ti3+ self-doping black TiO2 nanotube arrays (Ti/B-TiO2-NTs) as an interlayer were used for preparing a novel PbO2 electrode via an electrochemical reduction technology, and a sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-modified PbO2 catalytic layer was successfully achieved via an electrochemical deposition technology. The physicochemical characterization tests showed that the Ti/B-TiO2-NTs/PbO2-SDS electrodes have a denser surface and finer grain size with the introduction of Ti3+ in the interlayer of Ti/TiO2-NTs and the addition of SDS in the active layer of PbO2. The electrochemical characterization results showed that the Ti3+ self-doping black Ti/TiO2-NTs/PbO2-SDS electrode had higher oxygen evolution potential (2.11 V vs. SCE), higher electrode stability, smaller charge-transfer resistance (6.74 Ω cm-2), and higher hydroxyl radical production activity, leading to it possessing better electrocatalytic properties. The above results indicated that the physicochemical and electrochemical characterization of the PbO2 electrode were all enhanced significantly with the introduction of Ti3+ and SDS. Furthermore, the Ti/B-TiO2-NTs/PbO2-SDS electrodes displayed the best performance on the degradation of methylene blue (MB) in simulated wastewater via bulk electrolysis. The removal efficiency of MB and the chemical oxygen demand (COD) could reach about 99.7% and 80.6% under the optimal conditions after 120 min, respectively. The pseudo-first-order kinetic constant of the Ti/B-TiO2-NTs/PbO2-SDS electrode was 0.03956 min-1, which was approximately 3.18 times faster than that of the Ti/TiO2-NTs/PbO2 electrode (0.01254 min-1). In addition, the Ti/B-TiO2-NTs/PbO2-SDS electrodes showed excellent stability and reusability. The degradation mechanism of MB was explored via the experimental identification of intermediates. In summary, the Ti3+ self-doping black Ti/TiO2-NTs/PbO2-SDS electrode is a promising electrode in treating wastewater.

Abstract
Ammonia borane (AB) is a promising material for chemical H2 storage owing to its high H2 density (up to 19.6 wt %). However, the development of an efficient catalyst for driving H2 evolution through AB hydrolysis remains challenging. Therefore, a visible-light-driven strategy for generating H2 through AB hydrolysis was implemented in this study using Ni-Pt nanoparticles supported on phosphorus-doped TiO2 (Ni-Pt/P-TiO2 ) as photocatalysts. Through surface engineering, P-TiO2 was prepared by phytic-acid-assisted phosphorization and then employed as an ideal support for immobilizing Ni-Pt nanoparticles via a facile co-reduction strategy. Under visible-light irradiation at 283 K, Ni40 Pt60 /P-TiO2 exhibited improved recyclability and a high turnover frequency of 967.8 molH 2 ${{_{{\rm H}{_{2}}}}}$ molPt -1 min-1 . Characterization experiments and density functional theory calculations indicated that the enhanced performance of Ni40 Pt60 /P-TiO2 originated from a combination of the Ni-Pt alloying effect, the Mott-Schottky junction at the metal-semiconductor interface, and strong metal-support interactions. These findings not only underscore the benefits of utilizing multipronged effects to construct highly active AB-hydrolyzing catalysts, but also pave a path toward designing high-performance catalysts by surface engineering to modulate the electronic metal-support interactions for other visible-light-induced reactions.

Abstract
Stable and efficient SnO2 electrodes are very promising for effectively degrading refractory organic pollutants in wastewater treatment. In this regard, we firstly prepared Ti3+ self-doped urchin-like rutile TiO2 nanoclusters (TiO2-x NCs) on a Ti mesh substrate by hydrothermal and electroreduction to serve as an interlayer for the deposition of Sb-SnO2 . The TiO2-x NCs/Sb-SnO2 anode exhibited a high oxygen evolution potential (2.63 V vs. SCE) and strong ⋅OH generation ability for the enhanced amount of absorbed oxygen species. Thus, the degradation results demonstrated its good rhodamine B (RhB), methylene blue (MB), alizarin yellow R (AYR), and methyl orange (MO) removal performance, with the rate constant increased 5.0, 1.9, 1.9, and 4.7 times, respectively, compared to the control Sb-SnO2 electrode. RhB and AYR degradation mechanisms are also proposed based on the results of high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry and quenching experiments. More importantly, this unique rutile interlayer prolonged the anode lifetime sixfold, given its good lattice match with SnO2 and the three-dimensional concave-convex structure. Consequently, this work paves a new way for designing the crystal form and structure of the interlayers to obtain efficient and stable SnO2 electrodes for addressing dye wastewater problems.

Abstract
The combination of electrolysis and persulfate activation (E/PDS) is a cost-effective method for the treatment of refractory organics. However, persulfate is difficult to be activated into radicals at the anode, resulting in insufficient electro-activation efficiency. Herein, Al doped blue TiO2 nanotube electrodes (Al-bTNT) were first employed as cost-effective anode materials to fully activate PDS to radicals. In E/PDS, the kinetic constant of atrazine removal by Al-bTNT (0.048 min-1) substantially outperformed the other anodes, including the blue TiO2 nanotube electrodes (bTNT) (0.024 min-1), Ti4O7 (0.02 min-1), and B doped diamond (BDD) anodes (0.023 min-1). The Al-bTNT-E/PDS exhibited a low energy consumption (EEO = 0.72 kWh m-3) and a high mineralization rate. Based on the results of electron paramagnetic resonance, quenching experiments, and probe experiments, we propose that atrazine degrades in the Al-bTNT-E/PDS system mainly via a novel radical pathway that involves both·OH and SO4·- and the generated SO4·- is responsible for the enhanced removal rate. The oxygen vacancies (VO) generated from interstitial Al may serve as the active sites to adsorb and dissociate the persulfate molecules based on extensive characterizations. The attempt at soil-washing wastewater disposal indicated the synergistic system possessed good potential for future practical application.

Abstract
Bone defects are seriously threatening the health of orthopedics patients and it is difficult for implants to accelerate bone regeneration without using bone growth factors. Herein, a fast photothermal ion therapeutic strategy is developed based on the bandgap engineering of nanostructured TiO2 through (Si/P)-dual elemental doping by micro-arc oxidation treatment of titanium implants. The (Si/P)-dual doping can tune the surface bandgap structure of TiO2 by decreasing bandgap and broadening valence band simultaneously, which is confirmed by density functional theory calculations. It not only endows the implants with a mildly photothermal effect under near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation, but also creates an (Si/P) ion-rich microenvironment around the implants. This photothermal ion microenvironment can tune the behaviors of osteoblasts by promoting p38/Smad and ERK signaling pathways of osteoblasts, thus significantly upregulating the expression of osteogenesis genes by the synergistic action of mild photothermal stimulation and increased release of Si/P ions. The in vivo results are also in good agreement with in vitro tests, i.e., under NIR light irradiation, the photothermally responsive TiO2 enhances the bone formation and osteointegration with implants. Therefore, this kind of photothermal ion strategy is a promising remote and noninvasive therapeutic mode for promoting bone regeneration of Ti implants.

Abstract
In this study, a Ti3+-doped TiO2 porous membrane (Blue TiO2/Ti) was fabricated and employed for electrochemical degradation of organic pollutants in the single-pass flow-through mode. Characterizations including X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microcopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) verified that Ti3+-doped anatase TiO2 with nanotube structures was successfully prepared. Electrochemical analysis including linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and electrochemical active surface area (ESA) revealed higher oxygen evolution potential (OEP, 2.23 V vs. Ag/AgCl), larger redox peak current, lower impedance and larger ESA (69 cm2/cm2) of Blue TiO2/Ti compared to the Ti and TiO2/Ti membranes. The effects of current density, flow rate and solution environment on the removal of methylene blue (MB) were investigated. The removal rates of various organic pollutants including sulfamethoxazole (SMX), methyl orange (MO), bisphenol A (BPA) and MB could reach 92.2%-99.5%. The quenching experiment proved that hydroxyl radicals (•OH) played the major role in the Blue TiO2/Ti based electrochemical system. Furthermore, the degradation pathways of two typical pollutants (SMX and MB) were proposed by analyzing the oxidation products with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), with the assistance of orbital-weighted Fukui index (fw0 and fw-) obtained through Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. Moreover, toxicity indexes of the oxidation products were obtained and compared to the parent SMX and MB using Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (TEST) software. Finally, the long-term operation performance of the Blue TiO2/Ti membrane was evaluated.

Abstract
Pharmaceutical wastewater is a frequent kind of wastewater with high quantities of organic pollutants, although little research has been done in the area. Pharmaceutical wastewaters containing antibiotics and high salinity may impair traditional biological treatment, resulting in the propagation of antibiotic resistance genes. The potential for advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) to break down hazardous substances instead of present techniques that essentially transfer contaminants from wastewater to sludge, a membrane filter, or an adsorbent has attracted interest. Among a variety of AOPs, electrochemical systems are a feasible choice for treating pharmaceutical wastewater. Many electrochemical approaches exist now to remediate rivers polluted by refractory organic contaminants, like pharmaceutical micro-pollutants, which have become a severe environmental problem. The first part of this investigation provides the bibliometric analysis of the title search from 1970 to 2021 for keywords such as wastewater and electrochemical. We have provided information on relations between keywords, countries, and journals based on three fields plot, inter-country co-authorship network analysis, and co-occurrence network visualization. The second part introduces electrochemical water treatment approaches customized to these very distinct discarded flows, containing how processes, electrode materials, and operating conditions influence the results (with selective highlighting cathode reduction and anodic oxidation). This section looks at how electrochemistry may be utilized with typical treatment approaches to improve the integrated system's overall efficiency. We discuss how electrochemical cells might be beneficial and what compromises to consider when putting them into practice. We wrap up our analysis with a discussion of known technical obstacles and suggestions for further research.

Abstract
With the increasing complexity of water environment pollution, it is becoming ever more practical to study the simultaneous removal of multiple pollutants in water. Electrochemical advanced oxidation technology is considered to be one of the most promising green approaches for the degradation of organic pollutants. Herein, Ti3+ and oxygen vacancies (VO) self-doped TiO2-x nanotube array electrodes are employed to investigate the simultaneous degradation and an energy consumption assessment for the effective removal of the antibiotics tetracycline (TC) and metronidazole (MNZ). The electrocatalytic performance of the nanotube arrays prepared at different reduction times is significantly different. The electrochemical reduction of TiO2 nanotube arrays for 10 min presents the best degradation performance for TC and MNZ. When a mixed solution of TC and MNZ is simultaneously degraded, the removal rate of TC (50 mg L-1) and MNZ (50 mg L-1) within 3 h reaches 100%, while the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate is 79.1%. The energy consumption is significantly reduced compared to the degradation of a single substance. Simultaneously, the current utilization rate of the electrochemical degradation system is also significantly improved, with a specific energy consumption of only 85.78 kWh kg-1 and an average current efficiency that can reach 20.2%.
