ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY 2024; 45:3105-3117. [PMID: 37125413 DOI: 10.1080/09593330.2023.2208275] [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: 01/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/11/2023] [Indexed: 05/11/2023]
Abstract
In this work, to improve the performance of peroxodisulphate-advanced oxidation, an electrochemical oxidation-assisted UV light-activated peroxodisulphate system (E/UV/PDS) was used to degrade carbamazepine. The degradation of carbamazepine by PDS, E/PDS, UV/PDS and E/UV/PDS systems was compared, and their synergistic effects were analysed. The influence of single factors, such as PDS addition, initial pH, DS voltage, target initial concentration, etc., on the degradation of the E/UV/PDS system was discussed, and the optimal degradation process parameters were given. The active substances were determined by free radical inhibition experiments, such as 1O2, SO 4 - ⋅ and ⋅ OH . It was proved that 1O2 contributes much more to the degradation of carbamazepine than SO 4 - ⋅ and ⋅ OH . The degradation pathway of carbamazepine was proposed. Finally, the degradation mechanism of carbamazepine in the E/UV/PDS system was speculated. The results indicate that the electrochemical combined with the E/UV/PDS system is of great potential application value in the removal of antibiotic drug pollution and environmental purification.

CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 354:141737. [PMID: 38499078 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141737] [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: 02/01/2024] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/20/2024]
Abstract
Extracting heavy metal ions from wastewater has significant implications for both environmental remediation and resource preservation. However, the conventional adsorbents still suffer from incomplete ion removal and low utilization efficiency of the recovered metals. Herein, we present an extraction and reutilization method assisted by porous boron nitride (p-BN) containing high-density N atoms for metal recovery with simultaneous catalyst formation. The p-BN exhibits stable and efficient metal adsorption performance, particularly for ultra-trace-level water purification. The distribution coefficients towards Pb2+, Cd2+, Co2+ and Fe3+ can exceed 106 mL g-1 and the residual concentrations that reduced from 1 mg L-1 to 0.8-1.3 μg L-1 are much lower than the acceptable limits in drinking water standards of World Health Organization. Meanwhile, the used p-BN after Co ion adsorption can be directly adopted as a high-efficiency catalyst for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) in organic pollutant degradation without additional post-treatment, avoiding the secondary metal pollution and the problems of neglected manpower and energy consumption. Moreover, a flow-through multistage utilization system assisted by p-BN/polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane is constructed for achieving both metal ion separation and reutilization in the removal of organic pollutants, providing a new avenue for sustainable wastewater remediation.

Abstract
Constructed heterojunction has been considered an efficient strategy to enhance the migration and transfer of photoinduced charge carriers. Herein, a Z-scheme Cu2O/BiOBr heterojunction with 0D/2D structure was fabricated by microwave hydrothermal method. It was found that the optimal composites photocatalyst showed excellent activity for sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) illumination, and the removal rate reached 90.7%, which was higher than pristine Cu2O (53.0%) and BiOBr (60.0%). Subsequently, the operational parameters such as catalyst dosage, concentrations of pollutants, and pH of solution were investigated. According to the ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRs), Mott-Schottky curve, and density functional theory (DFT) analysis, the Z-scheme degradation mechanism of Cu2O/BiOBr heterostructure was proposed. Among them, the interface structure of 0-dimensions/2-dimensions (0D/2D) can significantly increase the number of heterojunctions in the composite catalyst, and Z-scheme heterostructures can accelerate the generation and migration of photoinduced charge carriers, which has a facilitation effect on improving the decomposition activity of the photocatalyst. Moreover, three possible pathways for SMZ degradation were inferred. This study provides a promising strategy for constructing novel heterojunctions with high photocatalytic performance.

Efficient Degradation of Sulfamethoxazole by Diatomite-Supported Hydroxyl-Modified UIO-66 Photocatalyst after Calcination. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:3116. [PMID: 38133013 PMCID: PMC10745632 DOI: 10.3390/nano13243116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is a widely used antibiotic to treat bacterial infections prevalent among humans and animals. SMX undergoes several transformation pathways in living organisms and external environments. Therefore, the development of efficient remediation methods for treating SMX and its metabolites is needed. We fabricated a photo-Fenton catalyst using an UIO-66 (Zr) metal-organic framework (MOF) dispersed in diatomite by a single-step solvothermal method for hydroxylation (HO-UIO-66). The HO-UIO-66-0/DE-assisted Fenton-like process degraded SMX with 94.7% efficiency; however, HO-UIO-66 (Zr) is not stable. We improved the stability of the catalyst by introducing a calcination step. The calcination temperature is critical to improving the catalytic efficiency of the composite (for example, designated as HO-UIO-66/DE-300 to denote hydroxylated UIO-66 dispersed in diatomite calcined at 300 °C). The degradation of SMX by HO-UIO-66/DE-300 was 93.8% in 120 min with 4 mmol/L H2O2 at pH 3 under visible light radiation. The O1s XPS signatures signify the stability of the catalyst after repeated use for SMX degradation. The electron spin resonance spectral data suggest the role of h+, •OH, •O2-, and 1O2 in SMX degradation routes. The HO-UIO-66/DE-300-assisted Fenton-like process shows potential in degrading pharmaceutical products present in water and wastewater.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 344:118440.

Abstract
Peroxymonosulfate (PMS)-mediated advanced oxidation processes gain growing attention in degrading antibiotics (e.g., tetracycline (TC)) in wastewater for their high capacity and relatively low cost, while designing efficient catalysts for PMS activation remains a challenge. In this study, a sulfur-doped Fe/C catalyst (Fe@C-S) synthesized from iron metal-organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) was developed for PMS activation towards TC removal. Under optimal conditions, the TC removal efficiency of Fe@C-S150/PMS system within 40 min was 91.2%. Meanwhile, the k value for Fe@C-S150/PMS system (0.2038 min-1) was 3.36-fold as high as the S-free Fe@C-based PMS system. Also, Fe@C-S150/PMS system showed high robustness in different water matrices. Further studies found that the TC degradation mechanism was mainly ascribed to the non-radical pathway (1O2 and electron transfer). Fe nanoparticles, S and CO groups on the catalyst all participated in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Besides, S species could enhance the Fe2+/Fe3+ redox cycle and accelerate the electron transfer process. This work highlights the critical role of S in enhancing the catalytic performance of Fe/C-based catalysts for PMS activation, which would provide meaningful insights into the design of high-performance PMS activators for the sustainable remediation of emerging contaminants-polluted water bodies.

Abstract
The fabrication of metal-carbon hybrids with heteroatom doping from manganese-metal organic frameworks (MOFs) has rarely been reported for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. In this work, novel MnOx@N-doped carbon (MnOx@NC) nanosheets were prepared using 2D manganese-1,4 benzenedicarboxylic acid-based MOFs (Mn-MOFs) and different proportions of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4, additional N source and carbon source) to activate PMS for sulfamethoxazole (SMX) removal. The polarization difference induced by Mn-N coordination during the carbonization process made C an electron-poor center and Mn an electron-rich center, thus providing more Mn(II) for PMS activation. Benefiting from the highest Mn(II) content, the most uniform and exposed MnOx active sites, abundant N active species and rich defective sites, MnOx@NC-20 showed excellent degradation (72.9% within 5 min) and mineralization performance (47.40% within 60 min) for SMX. Nonradical and radical processes worked together in MnOx@NC-20/PMS/SMX system, where singlet oxygen (1O2) dominated the degradation of SMX. N-doped carbon not only exhibited dragging and protection effects on MnOx, but also provided adsorption sites for PMS and pollutants, thus reducing their migration distance. Moreover, the electrons of organic substrates could be captured by the electron-poor carbon layer and then transported to the electron-rich Mn center, thus improving the utilization efficiency of PMS and the redox of Mn. This study provides a facile optimization method to prepare MOFs-derived carbon catalysts with improved stability and catalytic performance.

Abstract
N, S co-doped bio-carbons with a hierarchical porous structure and high surface area were prepared using a molten salt method and by adopting Entermorpha prolifera (EP) as a precursor. The structure and composition of the bio-carbons could be manipulated by the salt types adopted in the molten salt assisted pyrolysis. When the carbons were used as an activating agent for peroxydisulfate (PDS) in SMX degradation in the advanced oxidation process (AOP), the removal performance in the case of KCl derived bio-carbon (EPB-K) was significantly enhanced compared with that derived from NaCl (EPB-Na). In addition, the optimized EPB-K also demonstrated a high removal rate of 99.6% in the system that used local running water in the background, which proved its excellent application potential in real water treatment. The degradation mechanism study indicated that the N, S doping sites could enhance the surface affinity with the PDS, which could then facilitate 1O2 generation and the oxidation of the SMX. Moreover, a detailed techno-economic assessment suggested that the price of the salt reaction medium was of great significance as it influenced the cost of the bio-carbons. In addition, although the cost of EPB-K was higher (USD 2.34 kg-1) compared with that of EPB-Na (USD 1.72 kg-1), it was still economically competitive with the commercial active carbons for AOP water treatment.

Abstract
Owing to their ultrathin two-dimensional structure and efficient catalytic ability for persulfate activation, graphene-based nanocarbons exhibit considerable application potential in fabricating carbonaceous composite membranes for in situ catalytic oxidation to remove organic pollutants. This approach offers significant advantages over conventional batch systems. However, the relationships between the physicochemical properties of carbon mats and performance of graphene-based catalytic membranes in water purification remain ambiguous. Herein, we summarize the main mechanisms of in situ catalytic oxidation and the facile fabrication strategies of carbonaceous composite membranes. Different factors influencing the performance of graphene-based catalytic membranes are comprehensively discussed. The defective level, heteroatom doping, and stacking morphology of carbon mats and operational conditions during filtration play critical roles in the oxidative degradation of target pollutants. Long-term operation leads to the deterioration of catalytic activity and transmembrane pressure, especially in the complex water matrix. Finally, the present challenges and future perspectives are presented to improve the anti-fouling performance and catalytic stability of membranes and develop scalable fabrication methods to promote the engineering applications of in situ catalytic oxidation in real water purification.
