Abstract
In this research, the degradation of different types of N-containing heterocycle (NHC) contaminants by Cu-OMS-2 via peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation in an aqueous environment was investigated. First, the effects of different reaction parameters were optimized using benzotriazole (BTR) as the model contaminant, and the optimal reaction conditions were 8 mM PMS, 0.35 g/L Cu-OMS-2, and 30 °C. Nine different types of NHC contaminants were effectively degraded under these reaction conditions, and the degradation efficiencies and the mineralization rates of those NHCs were more than 68 and 46%, respectively. Moreover, the Cu-OMS-2/PMS process presented excellent performance at a wide pH ranging from 3.0 to 11.0 and in the presence of some representative anions (NO3- and SO42-) and dissolved organic matter (fumaric acid). The inhibition sequence of anions on BTR removal during the Cu-OMS-2/PMS process was H2PO4- > HCO3- > Cl- > CO32- > NO3- > SO42-. It was also found that 74.5 and 71.3% BTR degradation rates were achieved in actual water bodies, such as tap water and Yellow River water, respectively. Besides, the Cu-OMS-2 heterogeneous catalyst had excellent stability and reusability, and the degradation rate of BTR was still at 77.0% after 5 cycles. Finally, electron paramagnetic resonance analysis and scavenging tests showed that 1O2 and SO4- • were the primary reactive oxygen species. Accordingly, Cu-OMS-2 nanomaterial was an efficient and sustainable heterogeneous catalyst to activate PMS for the decontamination of BTR in water remediation.

Abstract
Transition metal sulfides have been demonstrated to be effective for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation towards wastewater treatment. However, the activity of vanadium sulfide (VS4) and the role of the chemical state of V have not been revealed. Here, three types of VS4 with various morphologies and chemical states of V were synthesized by using methanol (M-VS4, nanosphere composed of nanosheets), ethanol (E-VS4, sea urchin like nanosphere) and ultrapure water (U-VS4, compact nanosphere) as hydrothermal solvent, respectively, and used as heterogeneous catalysts to activate PMS for the degradation of refractory organic pollutants. The effects of PMS concentration, temperature, pH, inorganic ions, and humic acid (HA) on the degradation efficiency of VS4/PMS system were investigated systematically. The results indicated that the highest specific surface area and lowest ratio of V5+ enable E-VS4/PMS system possessed the highest performance in degrading tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH), in which 100% TCH was removed after operating 10 min (0.805 min-1) under a relatively low concentration of PMS (1 mM) and catalyst (100 mg/L). It also revealed that the system exhibited a typical radical process in TCH degradation, which could be attributed to the redox cycles between V5+, V4+ and V3+ in the presence of PMS to generate various radicals. This radical process enabled the E-VS4/PMS system with a high activity in wide reaction conditions and high mineralization ratios in degrading various refractory organic pollutants within 10 min. In addition, the E-VS4/PMS system exhibited favorable reusability and stability with very less V and S ions leaching, and showed excellent performance in real water purification.

Abstract
Benzotriazole UV stabilizers (BUVSs) are a class of emerging contaminants of concern; the development of rapid and convenient monitoring method for these trace-level pollutants in waters is of crucial significance in environmental science. Here, a novel magnetic flower-like molybdenum disulfide/cobalt ferrite nanocomposite (MoS2/CoFe2O4) was synthesized by hydrothermal reaction. Compared with the conventional Fe3O4-based magnetic composites, the proposed material just required a minimum consumption of Co/Fe towards the equivalent of MoS2 while providing superior magnetization performance. Taking advantages of high adsorption capacity, extraordinary stability, and repeatability in construction, MoS2/CoFe2O4 was applied to the extraction to BUVSs. The enrichment factors of three BUVSs were in the range 164-193 when 20 mL of environmental water sample was loaded on 40 mg of the adsorbent. MoS2/CoFe2O4 could be regenerated and recycled at least 10 cycles of adsorption/desorption with recoveries of 80.1-111%. The method of MoS2/CoFe2O4-based extraction coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography-variable wavelength detector was applied to the monitoring of BUVSs in seawater, lake water, and wastewater, which gave detection limits (S/N = 3) of 0.023-0.030 ng·mL-1 and recoveries of 80.1-110%. The intra-day and inter-day precisions (relative standard deviation, RSDs, n = 3) were in the range 1.6-7.5% and 3.2-11.5%, respectively. The approach is an alternative for efficient and sensitive extraction and determination of trace-level environmental pollutants in waters.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2022; 315:120416. [PMID: 36240969 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2022.120416] [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: 08/23/2022] [Revised: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
2-(2'-hydroxy-5'-methylphenyl) benzotriazole (UV-P) is a type of emerging persistent organic pollutant that is reported harmful to organisms. However, its degradation mechanisms and transformation behaviors in aquatic environments are not yet clear, which are significant for better understanding its environmental fate and potential toxicological impacts. In present work, the degradation mechanisms, kinetics, half-life times and eco-toxicity assessment of UV-P initiated by hydroxyl radical (•OH), sulfate radical (SO4•‾), and singlet oxygen (1O2) are systematically studied using density functional theory (DFT) and experimental methods. The initiated reaction results show that benzene ring of UV-P is vulnerable to attack by •OH, while benzotriazole is easily attacked by SO4•‾. The kinetic calculations indicate that •OH-addition reaction R15 is dominant initial pathway. And the half-life (t1/2) of UV-P is calculated according to rate constants, t1/2 decreases rapidly with [ROS] increasing. UV-P exhibits environmental persistence when [•OH] ≤ 10-17 M. The subsequent degradation mechanisms of hydroxylated UV-P react with •OH and O2 are also calculated. A novel ring-opening reaction channel is proposed that O2-addition intermediate combines with hydroperoxyl radical (HO2•) to cleave aromatic ring. The rate-determining step is intramolecular dehydration reaction with the energy barrier of 32.98 kcal mol-1 and 41.13 kcal mol-1 to cleave benzene ring and benzotriazole ring, respectively. The degradation experiments of UV-P are conducted in Co3O4 activated potassium peroxymonosulfate (PMS) system, and liquid chromatograph-mass spectrometer (LC-MS) results identified that dihydroxylated species are main intermediates, which is consistent with theoretical calculation results. Furthermore, the eco-toxicity assessment shows that the acute and chronic toxicities of most degradation products are reduced compared with UV-P, however, their toxicity levels still keep at toxic and harmful. The environmental risk of UV-P deserves more attention.

Abstract
A series of Co(II)-CeO2 mixed metal oxides were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal-calcination procedure for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and degrading toxic and difficult biodegradable organics. Co(II)-CeO2 showed excellent degradation performance toward rhodamine B (RhB), toluidine blue, methylene blue and diclofenac. RhB is a refractory organic contaminant, and ecotoxicological evaluation unraveled its harmfulness to the biosphere. RhB was selected as the model pollutant to investigate catalytic mechanisms. Parameters affecting degradation performance were profoundly investigated, including Co:Ce feed ratio, initial pH, PMS dosage, catalyst dosage, RhB concentration, coexisting ions and reaction temperature. Reaction mechanisms were proposed based on density functional theory calculations and identifications of reactive oxygen species. Improvements have been achieved in seven aspects compared to previous studies, including 100% degradation ratio in both real water samples and each reuse of the catalyst, ultrafast degradation rate, cost-effectiveness of the catalyst, toxicity-attenuation provided by the developed degradation method, high degree of mineralization for the model pollutant, negligible leaching of active sites, and the enhancement of catalytic performance by utilizing trace leached cobalt, endowing the technique with broad applicability and prospect.

Abstract
In this study, dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) cold plasma was used to degrade zearalenone and the efficiency of degradation were evaluated. In addition, the degradation kinetics and possible pathway of degradation were investigated. The results showed that zearalenone degradation percentage increased with increasing voltage and time. When it was treated at 50 KV for 120 s, the degradation percentage could reach 98.28%. Kinetics analysis showed that the degradation process followed a first-order reaction, which fitted the exponential function model best (R² = 0.987). Meanwhile, liquid chromatographywith quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (Q-TOF LC/MS) was used to analyze the degradation products, one major compound was identified. In this study, the reactive species generated in cold plasma was analyzed by Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) and the free radicals were detected by Electron Spin Resonance (ESR). This study could provide a theoretical basis for the degradation of zearalenone to a certain extent.

The existence of heavy metals and emerging organic contaminants in wastewater produces serious toxic residues to the environment. Developing cheap and efficient materials to remove these persistent pollutants is crucial. Iron-based materials are cost-effective and environmentally friendly catalysts, and their applications in the environmental field deserve attention. This paper critically reviewed the removal mechanisms of heavy metals and emerging organic pollutants by different influencing factors. The removal of pollutants (heavy metals and emerging organic pollutants) in a multi-component system was analyzed in detail. The mechanisms of synergism, antagonism and non-interference were discussed. This paper had a certain reference value for the research of wastewater remediation technology which could simultaneously remove various pollutants by iron-based materials.

Abstract
The photocatalytic degradation of pharmaceutical micropollutants of Penicillin G (PG) was investigated in a photoreactor at a laboratory scale. The impact of type of catalyst, pH, and initial concentration of PG were studied. Maximum removal efficiency was obtained at pH = 6.8, [ZnO]0 = 0.8 g L-1, and [PG]0 = 5 mg L-1 and reaction time of 150 min. The addition of persulfate sodium (PPS) enhanced the efficiency of the photocatalytic reaction. The efficiency of photolysis process in the presence of PPS was significantly improved to 72.72% compared to the classical photocatalysis system (56.71%). Optimum concentration of PPS to completely degraded PG was found to be 500 mg L-1. The QuEChERS extraction, GC-MS/MS method, and concentration technique showed favorable performance identification of the possible mechanism of PG degradation pathway. Toxicity of PG and its by-products were evaluated using microbioassays assessment based on nine selected bacterial strains. Results confirmed the effectiveness of the implemented system and its safe use via the bacteria Bacillus subtilis, which has illustrated significant activity. Due to the high efficiency, facility benefits, and low-cost of the suggested process, the process can be considered for the degradation of various pharmaceutical contaminants in pharmaceutical industry treatment under the optimal conditions.

Facile synthesis and synergistic mechanism of CoFe 2O 4@three-dimensional graphene aerogels towards peroxymonosulfate activation for highly efficient degradation of recalcitrant organic pollutants. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2020; 749:141466. [PMID: 32829273 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.141466] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2020] [Revised: 07/31/2020] [Accepted: 08/01/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Magnetic CoFe2O4 is a promising heterogeneous catalyst with great separation and catalytic performance on peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. However, for extremely recalcitrant organic pollutants (e.g. Benzotriazole (BTA)), CoFe2O4/PMS system exhibits much low catalytic performance and high metal ion leaching. As such, CoFe2O4 supported on three-dimensional graphene aerogels (CoFe2O4@3DG) was synthesized via facile hydrothermal method. It turns out that 3DG as supporter significantly enhances specific surface area, redox activity and electron transfer of composite. The degradation rate constant in the CoFe2O4@3DG/PMS system (0.0203 min-1) is 15 times higher than that in the CoFe2O4/PMS system (0.0013 min-1). It results from synergistic activation of PMS by CoFe2O4 and 3DG to generate multiple reactive oxygen species (•OH, SO4-•, O2-• and 1O2). Particularly, high graphitization structure and low oxygen groups content of 3DG facilitate PMS adsorption on its surface and electron transfer from BTA to PMS. Ultimately, BTA is degraded into CO2, NH3 and intermediates through benzene and triazole ring-opening reactions. Moreover, CoFe2O4@3DG/PMS system displays good stability and recyclability. Therefore, this study provides a new way to improve CoFe2O4 activity for extremely recalcitrant organic pollutants degradation and new insights into synergistic activation of PMS by CoFe2O4 and 3DG, which further advances cobalt-based catalysts in heterogeneous catalysis.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation technologies based on peroxymonosulfate (PMS) have attracted increasing attention because of their high reactivity and selectivity. Herein, we reported a novel CoFeLa-LDH catalyst, which exhibited excellent performance to activate PMS for tetracycline (TC) elimination. The influence of extra addition, simulation wastewater tests and the reusability experiments were investigated in detail. Remarkably, the quenching experiments and the results of EPR demonstrated the synergistic effect of radical and nonradical pathways in the TC degradation. Free radicals (SO4- and HO) played predominant roles in the first 1 min, and then both free and non-free radicals (1O2) interacted with TC. The possible TC degradation pathways were proposed on basis of the intermediates, which were analyzed by UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS. Finally, the reaction mechanisms of TC degradation in CoFeLa-LDH2/PMS system were proposed according to the comprehensive analysis.

Abstract
Metal-modified adsorbent had appreciable adsorption capacity and fast rate toward norfloxacin (NOR), but limited studies focused on the influence of metal species on adsorbents' performance. In this study, Fe and Cu were chosen to be loaded on mesoporous silicon SBA-15 for absorbing NOR and investigating the key function of metal species. An obvious synergy effect was found between active species and supporter. A high adsorption capacity (44.8 mg g-1 for Fe/SBA-15 and 78.3 mg g-1 for Cu/SBA-15) and short equilibration time (< 2 h) were obtained. NOR adsorptions on two processes were described well by pseudo-second-order kinetics, particle diffusion equation, and Langmuir isotherm. The adsorption processes were spontaneous, but NOR adsorption on Cu/SBA-15 was endothermic while its adsorption on Fe/SBA-15 was exothermic. HA had dual effect on the adsorption efficiency, with a promotion at low HA concentration but an inhibition at high concentration. NOR removal increased first and then decreased with pH ascension from 3 to 9 for both Fe/SBA-15 and Cu/SBA-15, achieving maximum at pH = 7. Comparative characterizations and experiments suggested that NOR adsorption processes were dominated by electrostatic interactions, n-π EDA interactions, hydrogen bonds, and surface complex. The greater n-π EDA and complex efficiency of Cu with NOR resulted in the superior performance of Cu/SBA-15. Graphical abstract.

CHEMOSPHERE 2020; 254:126820.

Abstract
In this study, water treatment residuals (WTRs), a safe and valuable by-product containing iron, was used as a precursor for preparing effective activator (HWTRs) of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for imidacloprid (IMD) degradation by hydrothermal treatment. Several affecting parameters on IMD degradation including PMS concentration, HWTRs dosage, initial pH and water matrix were discussed. The results of degradation experiments demonstrated that within the reaction time of 4 h, 97.64% of IMD could be removed with 0.5 g L-1 HWTRs and 1.5 mM PMS, and the acidic conditions were favorable for IMD degradation. Both sulfate radicals (SO4•-) and hydroxyl radicals (·OH) were generated to attack the target pollutant IMD, and ·OH was the dominating radical in the HWTRs/PMS system, which was confirmed by the results of radicals scavenging experiments, electron spin-resonance spectroscopy (ESR) tests and quantitative analysis. What's more, X-ray photoelectron (XPS) spectroscopy was used to further verify the activation mechanism. Consequently, the activation by Fe(II) on the surface of HWTRs might dominate the reaction was confirmed. In addition, the possible degradation pathways of IMD were proposed on the basis of the degradation intermediates identified by LC-MS. This study offers an innovative idea for modifying raw WTRs to prepare efficient catalysts to activate PMS under relatively mild conditions.
