Investigation of CuCoFe-LDH as an efficient and stable catalyst for the degradation of acetaminophen in heterogeneous electro-Fenton system: Key operating parameters, mechanisms and pathways. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 327:116787. [PMID: 36442449 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2022.116787] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Revised: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/12/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Pharmaceuticals, as anthropogenic pollutants in a wide range of water sources, generally require specific treatment methods for degradation. A trimetallic layered double hydroxide (CuCoFe-LDH) was successfully fabricated by coprecipitation and applied as a novel heterogeneous electro-Fenton (EF) catalyst for the degradation of acetaminophen (ACT) from aqueous environments. The EF experiments showed that the CuCoFe-LDH/EF process achieved 100% of ACT degradation efficiency within 60 min at pH = 5, catalyst dosage of 0.50 g/L, current density of 10 mA/cm2 and initial ACT concentration of 20 mg/L. An impressive (>80%) mineralization of ACT was obtained over a wide pH range (pH 3-9) after 180 min. Meanwhile, the role of ·OH and O2.- were certified by radical quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis. Through mechanism exploration, the coexistence of Cu and Co on Fe-based LDHs can accelerate the interfacial electron transfer and promote the formation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS), thus facilitating the EF process. Furthermore, the degradation by-products and possible degradation pathways of ACT in the CuCoFe-LDH/EF process were proposed. The reusability test and the treatment of various typical organic pollutants experiments indicated that the CuCoFe-LDH/EF process has excellent stability and broad application prospects. This work provides a valuable reference for the treatment of pharmaceuticals by the heterogeneous EF process in a wide range of pH.

Abstract
Herein, FeCuMg and CrCuMg layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were synthesized and their sonophotocatalytic activities toward Acid blue 113 (AB113) were compared. Sonolysis alone (only ultrasound) led to the decolorization efficiency of 13.0 %. A similar result was obtained in the case of the utilization of photolysis alone using a 10-W LED lamp (13.5 %). The adsorption process of AB113 onto both compounds was not efficient to significantly remove the target contaminant. The bandgap energy of 2.54 eV and 2.41 eV was calculated for FeCuMg and CrCuMg LDHs, respectively, indicating relatively higher photocatalytic activity of Cr-incorporated LDH than FeCuMg LDH. The sonophotocatalysis of AB113 (50 mg L-1) over CrCuMg LDH (81.1 %) was more efficient than that of FeCuMg LDH (57.3 %) within the reaction time of 60 min. Intermediate byproducts of the sonophotocatalytic decomposition of organic dye over the as-synthesized tri-metal layered sonophotocatalysts were also identified. Furthermore, the antibacterial activity of both LDHs was evaluated by the CFU technique and the MBC and MIC values were determined. The antibacterial assessment confirmed the higher antibacterial activity of CrCuMg LDH than that of FeCuMg LDH against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus).

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2019; 248:109236. [PMID: 31306926 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2019.07.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2019] [Revised: 07/04/2019] [Accepted: 07/04/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Nano-layered double hydroxide (NLDH) decorated with Fe and Cu was applied as a novel heterogeneous catalyst for catalytic degradation of gentamicin by the electro-Fenton (EF) process. The EF process was equipped with graphite plate under aeration to electrochemically generate hydrogen peroxide in the solution. The characterization analyses confirmed the suitable structure of as-synthesized Cu-Fe-NLDH to be acted as catalyst for treating the target pollutant. The comparative study showed the highest removal efficiency of 91.3% when the Cu-Fe-NLDH-equipped EF process was applied in comparison with the Fenton (50%) and the electro-oxidation alone (25.6%). The acidic pHs favored the degradation of gentamicin. Increasing the current resulted in the enhanced degradation of gentamicin, while the excessive electrolyte concentration (0.1 mol/L) and catalyst dosage (1.5 g/L) led to the tangible drop in the reactor performance. At a specified reaction time, the injection of O3 gas enhanced the efficiency of the Cu-Fe-NLDH-equipped EF process. The presence of ethanol led to more suppressing effect than benzoquinone, indicating the dominant role of OH radical in the degradation of gentamicin compared with other free radical species such as O2- radical. Only 10% drop in the degradation efficiency of gentamicin was observed within 10 operational runs. The mineralization efficiency of about 77% was achieved after 300 min in terms of chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal. The intermediate byproducts generated during the destructive removal of gentamicin were also identified.
