MoS 2 coupled with ball milling co-modified sludge biochar to efficiently activate peroxymonosulfate for neonicotinoids degradation: Dominant roles of SO 4•-, 1O 2 and surface-bound radicals. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024:119983. [PMID: 39270958 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119983] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2024] [Revised: 08/28/2024] [Accepted: 09/10/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024]
Abstract
An efficient catalyst of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) coupled with ball milling modified sludge biochar (BMSBC) was prepared to efficiently activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for neonicotinoids elimination. As expected, 95.1% of imidacloprid (IMI) was degraded by PMS/BMSBC system within 60 min and it was accompanied by the outstanding mineralization rate of 71.9%. The superior pore structures, rich defects, oxygen-containing functional groups and grafted MoS2 on BMSBC offered excellent activation performance for PMS. The influencing factor experiments demonstrated that PMS/BMSBC system performed high anti-interference to wide pH range and background constituents (e.g., inorganic ions and humic acid). Quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance analysis revealed that SO4•-, 1O2, and surface-bound radicals played critical roles in IMI degradation. Electron donors on biochar activated PMS , producing surface radicals. The lone pair electrons within the Lewis basic site of C=O on BMSBC enhanced PMS decomposition by facilitating the cleavage of the -O-O- bond in PMS to release 1O2. The activation process of PMS by MoS2 accelerated the oxidation of Mo (IV) to Mo (VI) to generate SO4•-. Based on the transformed products (TPs), four degradation pathways of IMI in PMS/BMSBC system were suggested, and all TPs toxicity levels were lower than that of IMI by ECOSAR analysis. Additionally, BMSBC exhibited outstanding sustainable catalytic activity towards PMS activation with the well accepted degradation rate of 71.3% for IMI even after five reuse cycles. PMS/BMSBC system also exhibited satisfactory degradation rates (>71.8%) for IMI in various real waters (e.g., sewage effluent, and livestock wastewater). Furthermore, PMS/BMSBC system also offered a favorable broad-spectrum elimination performance for other typical neonicotinoids (e.g., thiamethoxam, clothianidin, thiacloprid) with the degradation rates over 98%. This study has developed a desirable neonicotinoids purification technology in view of its high degradation/mineralization rate, outstanding detoxification performance, satisfied anti-interference to ambient conditions and sustainable sludge management.

Green approach for fabricating hybrids of food waste-derived biochar/zinc oxide for effective degradation of bromothymol blue dye in a photocatalysis/persulfate activation system. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 364:143245.

Abstract
This study presents novel composites of biochar (BC) derived from spinach stalks and zinc oxide (ZnO) synthesized from water hyacinth to be used for the first time in a hybrid system for activating persulfate (PS) with photocatalysis for the degradation of bromothymol blue (BTB) dye. The BC/ZnO composites were characterized using innovative techniques. BC/ZnO (2:1) showed the highest photocatalytic performance and BC/ZnO (2:1)@(PS + light) system attained BTB degradation efficiency of 89.47% within 120 min. The optimum operating parameters were determined as an initial BTB concentration of 17.1 mg/L, a catalyst dosage of 0.7 g/L, and a persulfate initial concentration of 8.878 mM, achieving a BTB removal efficiency of 99.34%. The catalyst showed excellent stability over five consecutive runs. Sulfate radicals were the predominant radicals involved in the degradation of BTB. BC/ZnO (2:1)@(PS + light) system could degrade 88.52%, 84.64%, 81.5%, and 77.53% of methylene blue, methyl red, methyl orange, and Congo red, respectively. Further, the BC/ZnO (2:1)@(PS + light) system effectively activated PS to eliminate 97.49% of BTB and 85.12% of dissolved organic carbon in real industrial effluents from the textile industry. The proposed degradation system has the potential to efficiently purify industrial effluents which facilitates the large-scale application of this technique.

Abstract
In this work, a sludge biochar (CA-SBC-300) with efficient activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) was prepared by citric acid modification. CA-SBC-300 achieved efficient degradation of naproxen (NPX) (95.5%) within 10 min by activating PMS. This system was highly resilient to common disruptive factors such as inorganic anions, humic acid (HA) and solution pH. The results of XPS and Raman showed that the content of oxygenated functional groups (OFGs) and the degree of defects on the sludge biochar increased after citric acid modification, which may be an important reason for the enhanced catalytic performance of SBC. In the CA-SBC-300/PMS system, 1O2 and O2•- made the main contributions to the degradation of NPX. XPS analysis and DFT calculations demonstrated that C=O/C-O and pyridine N on CA-SBC-300 were the crucial active sites for PMS activation. According to the results of UPLC-MS analysis, three possible pathways for NPX degradation were inferred. This study provided a feasible strategy for sludge resource utilization combined with efficient catalytic degradation of toxic organic contaminants in wastewater.

Abstract
The design of single-atom nanozymes with dual active sites to increase their activity and for the detection and degradation of contaminants is rare and challenging. In this work, a single-atom nanozyme (FeCu-NC) based on a three-dimensional porous Fe/Cu dual active site was developed as a colorimetric sensor for both the quantitative analysis of isoniazid (INH) and the efficient degradation of levofloxacin (LEV). FeCu-NC was synthesized using a salt template and freeze-drying method with a three-dimensional hollow porous structure and dual active sites (Fe-Nx and Cu-Nx). In terms of morphology and structure, FeCu-NC exhibits excellent peroxidase-like activity and catalytic properties. Therefore, a colorimetric sensor was constructed around FeCu-NC for sensitive and rapid quantitative analysis of INH with a linear range of 0.9-10 μM and a detection limit as low as 0.3 μM, and the sensor was successfully applied to the analysis of INH in human urine. In addition, FeCu-NC promoted the efficient degradation of LEV by peroxymonosulfate activation, with a degradation rate of 90.4% for LEV at 30 min. This work sheds new light on the application of single-atom nanozymes to antibiotics for colorimetric sensing and degradation.

Abstract
A carbon material Cu-corn straw-sludge biochar (Cu-CSBC) was prepared by hydrothermally modifying sewage sludge and corn stover. The composite coupled to ultrasound can effectively catalyze the activation of PS for organic pollutants degradation, and the removal rate of 20 mg/L TC reached 89.15% in 5 min in the presence of 0.5 g/L Cu-CSBC and 3 mM PS. The synergistic effect between the factors in the system, the reaction mechanism, and the efficient removal of TC in the aqueous environment were explored in a Cu-CSBC/US/PS system established for that purpose. Quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance analysis both demonstrated the Cu-CSBC/US/PS system generated •OH, SO4-•, 1O2, and O2- •, which involved in the reaction. The Cu, carboxyl, and hydroxyl groups on the Cu-CSBC surface promoted the generation of radicals and non-radicals for the degradation process, which was dominated by both radical and non-radical pathways. The degradation pathway is proposed by measuring the intermediate products with LC-MS. Finally, the stability of the Cu-CSBC/US/PS system was tested under various reaction conditions. This study not only prepared a novel biochar composite material for the active degradation of organic pollutants by PS but also provided an effective method for the resource utilization of solid waste and sludge treatment.

Abstract
Hydrothermal carbonization was applied to taro peel wastes to produce hydrochars using a facile and environmentally friendly process. Four different entities were prepared: hydrochar (TPh), phosphoric-activated hydrochar (P-TPh), and silver@hydrochars (Ag@TPh, Ag@P-TPh). The elemental compositions of the single and composite hydrochars were confirmed by EDX. Among the produced hydrochars, the morphology of the Ag@hydrochar composites demonstrated more wrinkled structure, and Ag nanoparticles decorated the surface. The optimal experimental conditions for levofloxacin adsorption were determined to be a contact time of 45 min, hydrochar dose of 0.15 g L-1, and pH of 7. The best adsorption performances were assigned to Ag@hydrochars. Two machine learning models were applied to predict the levofloxacin adsorption efficiency of the Ag@hydrochars. A central composite design (CCD) and a 3-10-1 artificial neural network (ANN) model were developed to estimate the removal performance of levofloxacin using Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation algorithm based on correlation and error analysis of the adopted training functions. Furthermore, the ANN sensitivity analysis revealed the order of the relative importance variable as initial concentration> hydrochar dose> pH. The predicted values of the CCD and ANN models fitted the experimental results with R2> 0.989. Therefore, the applied models were effective in predicting levofloxacin removal under different operating conditions. This work provides an open option for the sustainable management of food industry wastes and the possibility of waste valorization to effective hydrochar composites to be applied in water treatment processes.

Abstract
Periodate (PI)-based oxidation using the activators, such as metal ions and light irradiation, has emerged as a feasible treatment strategy for the effective remediation of contaminated water and wastewater. Given the pervasive nature of PI residues and solar exposure during application, the role of solar light in remediating the challenging highly saline water matrices needs to be elucidated. In this study, bisphenol A (BPA) was selected as the targeted micropollutant, which can be efficiently eliminated by the simulated sunlight (SSL)/PI system in the presence of high-level Cl- (up to 846.0 mM) at pH 7.0. The presence of different background constituents of water, such as halides, nitrate, and dissolved organic matter, had no effect, or even accelerated BPA abatement. Particularly, the ubiquitous Br- or I- appreciably enhanced the BPA transformation efficiency, which may be ascribed to the generation of high-selective reactive HOBr or HOI. The in silico predictions suggested that the transformation products generated by halide-mediated SSL/PI systems via halogen substitutions showed greater persistence, bioaccumulation, and aquatic toxicity than BPA itself. These findings highlighted a widespread phenomenon during PI-based oxidative treatment of highly saline water, which needs special attention under solar light illumination.

Abstract
Natural pyrite (NP) is an alternative catalyst for wastewater purification via advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). However, the activation performance and mechanism of periodate (PI) by NP have not yet been revealed. Herein, this work examines the activation performance of NP towards PI and its application in the degradation of antibiotic wastewater. Interestingly, 95.69% of chlortetracycline (CTC) was degraded by NP within 20 min via PI activation. Besides, NP shows effective degradation of various pollutants such as rhodamine B (65.81%), sulfamethoxazole (89.04%), and sodium butylxanthate (99.77%) within 20 min. The active species quenching experiment suggested that the active species ∙ OH ,IO 3 ∙ , 1O2 and the active complex of PI bonded with NP surface participated in CTC degradation. In addition, Fe(II) on NP surface is the main active site for PI activation, while Sn2- species accelerates the reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II) and promotes sustained PI activation. This work provides new ideas for the application of NP in environmental pollution control.

Abstract
The development of more efficient advanced oxidation systems for serving various advanced treatment of wastewater is quite necessary and urgent. In this study, a nano-zero valent iron/periodate (nZVI-BC/PI) advanced oxidation system has been constructed, achieving a rapid degradation of acetaminophen (ACT, 1 mg/L) within 1 min (100 % at pH = 11) at low temperature (5℃). This system shows a great degradation in a wide range of pH (1 ∼ 11), improving the pH limitation of PI oxidation system. During the reaction process, ·OH as the main active species collaborate with 1O2, Fe (IV), ·O2- and electron transfer to degrade ACT. In this system, iron ion leaching is low (0.019 mg/L), ACT was effectively degraded (74.36 %∼97.32 %) under different water, moreover, the material has an expected recyclability. The research provides a significant guidance for the advanced treatment of wastewater especially in cold regions.

Abstract
In this study, Sb2S3/In2S3/TiO2 (SIT) heterojunction photocatalysts were prepared by a simple two-step hydrothermal method and applied to the photocatalytic degradation of levofloxacin (LEV). After 160 min of reaction under visible light, the SIT heterojunction photocatalyst degraded 10 mg L-1 LEV at a rate of 86.7%. The degradation of LEV follows pseudo-first-order kinetics with a rate constant 1.16 × 10-2 min-1, which is 1.42, 1.22 and 1.05 times higher than that of TiO2, SI and IT, respectively. Meanwhile, the SIT photocatalysts also showed high photocatalytic activity for other antibiotics. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of the ternary heterostructures was attributed to the full-spectrum response and the synergistic effect of the dual Z-type heterojunctions, which improved the visible light absorption and facilitated the charge separation. In addition, ˙OH and ˙O2- play a dominant role in the photodegradation process. This work contributes to the design of novel photocatalytic materials with dual Z-type heterojunctions and efficient photocatalysts for the degradation of antibiotics.

[PMID: 38007926 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.119548] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2023] [Revised: 10/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/04/2023] [Indexed: 11/28/2023]
Abstract
The ability of the ultrasound (US) combined with peroxymonosulfate (PMS), and a carbonaceous material (BC) was evaluated in the degradation of a model pollutant (acetaminophen, ACE). The US/BC/PMS system was compared with other possible systems (US, oxidation by PMS, BC adsorption, BC/PMS, US/PMS, and US/BC. The effect of the ultrasonic frequency (40, 375, and 1135 kHz) on the kinetics and synergy of the ACE removal was evaluated. In the US system, kinetics was favored at 375 kHz due to the increased production of hydroxyl radicals (HO•), but this did not improve in the US/PMS and US/BC systems. However, synergistic and antagonistic effects were observed at the low and high frequencies where the production of radicals is less efficient but there is an activation of PMS through mechanical effects. US/BC/PMS at 40 kHz was the most efficient system obtaining ∼95% ACE removal (40 μM) in the first 10 min of treatment, and high synergy (S = 10.30). This was promoted by disaggregation of the carbonaceous material, increasing the availability of catalytic sites where PMS is activated. The coexistence of free-radical and non-radical pathways was analyzed. Singlet oxygen (1O2) played the dominant role in degradation, while HO• and sulfate radicals (SO4•-), scarcely generated at low frequency, play a minimum role. Performance in hospital wastewater (HWW), urine, and seawater (SW) evidenced the competition of organic matter by BC active sites and reactive species and the removal enhancement when Cl- is present. Besides, toxicity decreased by ∼20% after treatment, being the system effective after three cycles of reuse.

Abstract
Biochar-activated periodate (PI) is a promising technology toward antibiotic wastewater purification. However, the mechanism of pyrolysis temperature on PI activation efficiency by biochar has not yet been revealed. Herein, this work selected water hyacinth stems as raw materials to prepare biochar with different pyrolysis temperatures (400, 500, 600, and 700 °C), and applied it to degrade tetracycline (TC) wastewater through PI activation. The results show that biochar with a pyrolysis temperature of 700 °C (BC-700) possesses the best TC degradation performance (∼100% within 30 min). Besides, the degradation of TC by BC-700 is less interfered by coexisting anions and water matrix, and exhibits good reusability. Quenching experiments and open circuit voltage tests verified that IO3•, 1O2, and reactive complex BC-PI* are active species involved in TC degradation. In addition, by constructing the relationship between biochar surface properties and degradation rate kobs, it was revealed that the dominant role of pyridinic N in PI adsorption and formation of reactive complexes as well as the promotion of sp2-hybridized carbon in the electron transfer process. This work provides novel insights into the application of biochar in antibiotic wastewater treatment via PI activation.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on peracetic acid (PAA) has been extensively concerned for the degradation of organic pollutants. In this study, metallic iron-modified sludge biochar (Fe-SBC) was employed to activate PAA for the removal of sulfamethoxazole (SMX). The characterization results indicated that FeO and Fe2O3 were successfully loaded on the surface of the sludge biochar (SBC). Fe-SBC/PAA system achieved 92% SMX removal after 30 min. The pseudo-first-order kinetic reaction constant of the Fe-SBC/PAA system was 7.34 × 10-2 min-1, which was 2.4 times higher than the SBC/PAA system. The degradation of SMX was enhanced with increasing the Fe-SBC dosage and PAA concentration. Apart from Cl-, NO3- and SO42- had a negligible influence on the degradation of SMX. Quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) techniques identified the existence of reactive species, of which CH3C(O)OO•, 1O2, and O2•- were dominant reactive species in Fe-SBC/PAA system. The effect of different water matrices on the removal of SMX was investigated. The removal of SMX in tap water and lake water were 79% and 69%, respectively. Four possible pathways for the decay of SMX were presented according to the identification of oxidation products. In addition, following the ecological structure-activity relationship model (ECOSAR) procedure and the germination experiments with lettuce seeds to predict the toxicity of the intermediates. The acute and chronic ecotoxicity of SMX solution was dramatically diminished by processing with Fe-SBC/PAA system. In general, this study offered a prospective strategy for the degradation of organic pollutants.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have drawn much more attention due to their high risk on human health and ecosystem. In this study, the performance of sulfidated nanoscale zero-valent iron (S-nZVI)/periodate (PI) system toward ARB inactivation and ARGs removal was systematically investigated. The S-nZVI/PI system could realize the complete inactivation of 1 × 108 CFU/mL kanamycin, ampicillin, and tetracycline-resistant E. coli HB101 within 40 min, meanwhile, possessed the ability to remove the intracellular ARGs (iARGs) (including aphA, tetA, and tnpA) carried by E. coli HB101. Specifically, the removal of aphA, tetA, and tnpA by S-nZVI/PI system after 40 min reaction was 0.31, 0.47, and 0.39 log10copies/mL, respectively. The reactive species attributed to the E. coli HB101 inactivation were HO• and O2•-, which could cause the destruction of E. coli HB101 morphology and enzyme system (such as superoxide dismutase and catalase), the loss of intracellular substances, and the damage of iARGs. Moreover, the influence of the dosage of PI and S-nZVI, the initial concentration of E. coli HB101, as well as the co-existing substance (such as HCO3-, NO3-, and humic acid (HA)) on the inactivation of E. coli HB101 and its corresponding iARGs removal was also conducted. It was found that the high dosage of PI and S-nZVI and the low concentration of E. coli HB101 could enhance the disinfection performance of S-nZVI/PI system. The presence of HCO3-, NO3-, and HA in S-nZVI/PI system showed inhibiting role on the inactivation of E. coli HB101 and its corresponding iARGs removal. Overall, this study demonstrates the superiority of S-nZVI/PI system toward ARB inactivation and ARGs removal.

Abstract
Converting waste activated sludge into catalysts for the removal of antibiotics in water fulfils the dual purpose of waste-to-resource and hazardous pollution elimination. In this study, sludge-derived biochar (SDB) for efficient periodate (PI) activation was first prepared via one-step pyrolysis of potassium permanganate-polyhexamethylenebiguanide conditioned sludge without additional modification. The SDB (750 °C)-PI system degraded 100% ofloxacin (OFL, 41.5 μM) within 6 min and was almost undisturbed by inorganic ions or humic acids. The experimental results confirmed that the predominant role of reactive iodine species (RIS) and the auxiliary involvement of singlet oxygen (1O2) jointly contributed to the OFL degradation. Theoretical calculations further indicated that the synergy between Mn and N/O induced local charge redistribution and improved electron transfer capability of SDB, leading to the formation of electron-rich Mn sites and enhanced Mn(II)↔Mn(III)↔Mn(IV) redox to promote PI activation. More importantly, the enhanced adsorption and charge transfer of PI on the Mn site of the Mn-N/O-C structures induced the I-O bond stretching and the rapid generation of RIS. This study offered a cost-effective strategy for developing SDB-based catalysts, further advancing the comprehension of sludge management and the intricate mechanisms underlying RIS formation in PI-advanced oxidation processes.

Abstract
Periodate (PI) has recently been studied as an excellent oxidant in advanced oxidation processes, and its reported mechanism is mainly the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This work presents an efficient approach using N-doped iron-based porous carbon (Fe@N-C) to activate periodate for the degradation of sulfisoxazole (SIZ). Characterization results indicated the catalyst has high catalytic activity, stable structure, and high electron transfer activity. In terms of degradation mechanism, it is pointed out that the non-radical pathway is the dominant mechanism. In order to prove this mechanism, we have carried out scavenging experiments, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis, salt bridge experiments and electrochemical experiments, which demonstrate the occurrence of mediated electron transfer mechanism. Fe@N-C could mediate the electron transfer from organic contaminant molecules to PI, thus improving the efficiency of PI utilization, rather than simply inducing the activation of PI through Fe@N-C. The overall results of this study provided a new understanding into the application of Fe@N-C activated PI in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Biochar has shown large potential in environmental remediation because of its low cost, large specific surface area, porosity, and high conductivity. Biochar-assisted advanced oxidation processes (BC-AOPs) have recently attracted increasing attention to the remediation of organic pollutants from water. However, the effects of biochar properties on catalytic performance need to be further explored. There are still controversial and knowledge gaps in the reaction mechanisms of BC-AOPs, and regeneration methods of biochar catalysts are lacking. Therefore, it is necessary to systematically review the latest research progress of BC-AOPs in the treatment of organic pollutants in water. In this review, first of all, the effects of biochar properties on catalytic activity are summarized. The biochar properties can be optimized by changing the feedstocks, preparation conditions, and modification methods. Secondly, the catalytic active sites and degradation mechanisms are explored in different BC-AOPs. Different influencing factors on the degradation process are analyzed. Then, the applications of BC-AOPs in environmental remediation and regeneration methods of different biochar catalysts are summarized. Finally, the development prospects and challenges of biochar catalysts in environmental remediation are put forward, and some suggestions for future development are proposed.

Abstract
Highly dispersed iron nanoclusters on carbon (FeNC@C) hold great promise for wastewater purification in Fenton-like reactions. The microenvironment engineering of central Fe atom is promising to boost the activation capacity of FeNC@C, which is however remains a challenge. This study developed a self-sacrificed templating strategy to S, N-codoped carbon supported Fe nanoclusters (FeNC@SNC) activator and find the key role of sulfur heteroatoms in regulating the electron structure of Fe sites and final activation property. Investigations revealed that the FeNC@SNC composite exhibited unusual bifunctional activity in both peroxymonosulfate (PMS)- and periodate (PI)-based Fenton-like reactions. We also offered insights into the differences between the degradation of organics by the FeNC@SNC/PMS and FeNC@SNC/PI systems. Specifically, under identical conditions, the FeNC@SNC/PMS system delivered a higher oxidation capability and stronger resistance to nontarget matrix constituents, but showed more severe Fe leaching than the FeNC@SNC/PI system. Furthermore, while mediated electron-transfer process was identified as the major route for pollutant decomposition in both systems, the high-valent Fe-oxo species [Fe (IV)] was the auxiliary reactive species found only in the FeNC@SNC/PMS system. Based on these findings, our results provide profound insights into the design of active and durable Fe-based activators toward highly efficient Fenton-like reactions.

Abstract
The non-radical pathway of periodate (PI) activation for the removal of persistent organic contaminants has received increasing attention due to its higher stability and oxidative advantages. In this study, the degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) by ball mill treated magnetic sludge biochar (BM-MSBC) through activation of PI by electron transfer mechanism was reported. Experimental and characterization results showed that the ball milling treatment resulted in a better pore and defect structure, which also significantly enhanced the electron transfer capacity of the sludge biochar. The BM-MSBC/PI system exhibited notable dependence of activator concentration and initial pH, while the effect of PI concentration was not significant. The coexisting substances (common anions and natural organic matters) hardly affect the degradation of SMX in the BM-MSBC/PI system. The phytotoxicity experiments suggested that the treatment of BM-MSBC/PI system could significantly reduce the biological toxicity of SMX solution. This study provides a novel, economical, and facile modification method for the application of sludge biochar in advanced oxidation processes.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 323:116241. [PMID: 36137453 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2022.116241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
With the ever-increasing severity of the ongoing water crisis, it is of great significance to develop efficient, eco-friendly water treatment technologies. As an emerging oxidant in the advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), periodate (PI) has received worldwide attention owing to the advantages of superior stability, susceptible activation capability, and high efficiency for decontamination. This is the first review that conducts a comprehensive analysis of the mechanism, pollutant transformation pathway, toxicity evolution, barriers, and future directions of PI-based AOPs based on the scientific information and experimental data reported in recent years. The pollutant elimination in PI-based AOPs was mainly attributed to the in situ generate reactive oxygen species (e.g., •OH, O(3P), 1O2, and O2•-), reactive iodine species (e.g., IO3• and IO4•), and high-valent metal-oxo species with exceptionally high reactivity. These reactive species were derived from the PI activated by the external energy, metal activators, alkaline, freezing, hydroxylamine, H2O2, etc. It is noteworthy that direct electron transport could also dominate the decontamination in carbon-based catalyst/PI systems. Furthermore, PI was transformed to iodate (IO3-) stoichiometrically via an oxygen-atom transfer process in most PI-based AOPs systems. However, the production of I2, I-, and HOI was sometimes inevitable. Furthermore, the transformation pathway of typical micropollutants was clarified, and the in silico QSAR-based prediction results indicated that most transformation products retained biodegradation recalcitrance and multi-endpoint toxicity. The barriers faced by the PI-based AOPs were also clarified with potential solutions. Finally, future perspectives and research directions are highlighted based on the current state of PI-based AOPs. This review enhances our in-depth understanding of PI-based AOPs for pollutant elimination and identifies future research needs to focus on the reduction of toxic byproducts.

New combination of pulsed light and iron (II) for carbonate radical production to enhanced degradation of bisphenol A: Parameter optimization and degradation pathway. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 322:116059. [PMID: 36055096 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2022.116059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Revised: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Bisphenol A(BPA) is a common industrial chemical with significant adverse impacts on Environment and human health. The present work evaluates the efficacy of pulsed light (PL) and Fe2+ ions in activation of sodium percarbonate (SPC) to produce hydroxyl (OH•) and carbonate (CO3•-) radicals for efficient degradation of BPA. The effects of operational parameters such as solution pH, SPC and Fe2+ dose as well as the mixture composition were analyzed and the decomposition pathway of BPA proposed. The BPA was successfully degraded at the initial concentration of 15.0 mg/L and optimized conditions by the PL/Fe2+/SPC process (99.67 ± 0.29%). A rapid reduction in the degradation of BPA was observed with increasing pH due to OH• radicals quenching and also the precipitation of Fe2+. Under the optimized conditions, degradation of BPA by PL/Fe2+/SPC process was five-times faster than the individual process. The quenching experiments revealed that radical and non-radical pathways on BPA degradation was accomplished with OH•, CO3•-, O2•-, and 1O2, while OH• and CO3•- radicals (as a dominant radicals) have the contributions of 80.23% and 8.30%, respectively. Based on the detected byproducts, ring cleavage can be considered as the main transformation mechanism of BPA by the PL/Fe2+/SPC process.

Converting Hybrid Mechanisms to Electron Transfer Mechanism by Increasing Biochar Pyrolysis Temperature for the Degradation of Sulfamethoxazole in a Sludge Biochar/Periodate System. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
In this study, sludge biochar was prepared under four pyrolysis temperatures (SBC300, SBC500, SBC700, and SBC900) and then was employed to activate periodate (PI) for the degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX). Various characterization methods were employed to investigate the effect of pyrolysis temperature on the physicochemical properties of sludge biochar and the activation capacity of periodate. The SMX adsorption capacity of SBCs and the ability of activating PI to degrade SMX increased with the increasing pyrolysis temperature. The degradation of SMX by the SBCs/PI systems was highly dependent on the initial pH of the solution and the dosage of SBCs. Mechanistic studies indicated that the degradation of SMX by the SBCs/PI system was mainly based on an electron-mediated transfer mechanism. Additionally, the electron transfer capacity of the SBCs affected the defects and the degree of graphitization. The contribution of free radicals to SMX degradation decreases with increasing pyrolysis temperature. Toxicity experiments demonstrated that the toxic elimination of SMX by the SBCs/PI system was enhanced with increasing pyrolysis temperature.

Abstract
Fe(II)-activated potassium periodate (KIO4) oxidation was used to improve the dewaterability of waste-activated sludge for the first time. Compared with those of raw sludge, the capillary suction time (CST), specific resistance filtration (SRF), and water content of filter cake (WC) of sludge treated using the Fe(II)/KIO4 process under the optimal conditions (i.e., the initial pH = 6.8, KIO4 dose = 1.4 mmol/g volatile suspended solids, Fe(II)/KIO4 molar ratio = 1.2) decreased by 64.34%, 84.13%, and 6.69%, respectively. For conditioned sludge flocs, the Zeta potential and particle size were increased, and hydrophilic proteins in extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) were partly degraded, accompanied by the transformation of tightly bound EPS into soluble EPS and the conversion of dense sludge flocs into loose and porous ones. During Fe(II)/KIO4 oxidation, Fe(IV) and the accompanying •OH were determined as the predominant reactive species and the underlying mechanism of sludge EPS degradation was proposed. This work provides a prospective method for conditioning the sludge dewaterability.

Abstract
Conversion of sewage sludge to biochar for contaminants removal from water achieves the dual purpose of solid waste reuse and pollution elimination, in line with the concept of circular economy and carbon neutrality. However, the current understanding of sludge-derived biochar (SDB) for wastewater treatment is still limited, with a lack of summary regarding the effect of modification on the mechanism of SDB adsorption/catalytic removal aqueous contaminants. To advance knowledge in this aspect, this paper systematically reviews the recent studies on the use of (modified) SDB as adsorbents and in persulfate-based advanced oxidation processes (PS-AOPs) as catalysts for the contaminants removal from water over the past five years. Unmodified SDB not only exhibits stronger cation exchange and surface precipitation for heavy metals due to its nitrogen/mineral-rich properties, but also can provide abundant catalytic active sites for PS. An emphatic summary of how certain adsorption removal mechanisms of SDB or its catalytic performance in PS-AOPs can be enhanced by targeted regulation/modification such as increasing the specific surface area, functional groups, graphitization degree, N-doping or transition metal loading is presented. The interference of inorganic ions/natural organic matter is one of the unavoidable challenges that SDB is used for adsorption/catalytic removal of contaminants in real wastewater. Finally, this paper presents the future perspectives of SDB in the field of wastewater treatment. This review can contribute forefront knowledge and new ideas for advancing sludge treatment toward sustainable green circular economy.
