Abstract
⋅ O H The wet denitrification technology has a good development prospect due to its simple system and mild reaction conditions, and related research has become a hot topic in the field of flue gas purification. In this work, a novel simultaneous removal technology of NO from flue gas using Fe2+/Cu2+-catalytic H2O2/(NH4)2S2O8 system was developed for the first time. The feasibility of this new flue gas cleaning technology was explored through a series of experiments and performance analyses. The mechanism of oxidation products, free radicals and simultaneous removal of NO was revealed. The effects of the main process parameters on the removal of NO were investigated. Relevant results demonstrated that the removal efficiency of NO was elevated when the concentration of (NH4)2S2O8 or reacting temperature increased, while it was decreased after increasing the raising of Fe2+, Cu2+ and H2O2 concentrations. The main radicals were and·S O 4 - , using the electron spin resonance technique in the solution, and played a very important role in NO removal. The main products were carried out by ion chromatography and elemental N material accountancy, and the results showed that it was sulfate and nitrate in the solution, which provided theoretical guidance for the subsequent treatment and resource utilization of the absorption solution. The results of the study provided a theoretical basis for the industrial application of wet denitrification.Highlights A new green process of NO removal by a wet process with Fe2+/Cu2+ activated (NH4)2S2O8 system is proposed in this paper;Elimination mechanisms and paths of NO are elucidated;The synergistic role produced by Cu2+ and Fe2+ is beneficial to the purification of NO;The synergistic role produced by (NH4)2S2O8 and H2O2 increased the concentration of free radicals in the solution;This process jointly considers the enhanced removal of NO and recycling of transition metal ions.

Abstract
Sulfate radical (SO4•-)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have become promising alternatives in environmental remediation due to the higher redox potential (2.6-3.1 V) and longer half-life period (30-40 μs) of sulfate radicals compared with many other radicals such as hydroxyl radicals (•OH). The generation and mechanisms of SO4•- and the applications of SO4•--AOPs have been examined extensively, while those using sulfite as activation precursor and their comparisons among various activation precursors have rarely reviewed comprehensively. In this article, the latest progresses in SO4•--AOPs were comprehensively reviewed and commented on. First of all, the generation of SO4•- was summarized via the two activation methods using various oxidant precursors, and the generation mechanisms were also presented, which provides a reference for guiding researchers to better select two precursors. Secondly, the reaction mechanisms of SO4•- were reviewed for organic pollutant degradation, and the reactivity was systematically compared between SO4•- and •OH. Thirdly, methods for SO4•- detection were reviewed which include quantitative and qualitative ones, over which current controversies were discussed. Fourthly, the applications of SO4•--AOPs in various environmental remediation were summarized, and the advantages, challenges, and prospects were also commented. At last, future research needs for SO4•--AOPs were also proposed consequently. This review could lead to better understanding and applications of SO4•--AOPs in environmental remediations.

Abstract
Nitrogen oxide (NOx) is a major gaseous pollutant in flue gases from power plants, industrial processes, and waste incineration that can have adverse impacts on the environment and human health. Many denitrification (de-NOx) technologies have been developed to reduce NOx emissions in the past several decades. This paper provides a review of the recent literature on NOx post-combustion purification methods with different reagents. From the perspective of changes in the valence of nitrogen (N), purification technologies against NOx in flue gas are classified into three approaches: oxidation, reduction, and adsorption/absorption. The removal processes, mechanisms, and influencing factors of each method are systematically reviewed. In addition, the main challenges and potential breakthroughs of each method are discussed in detail and possible directions for future research activities are proposed. This review provides a fundamental and systematic understanding of the mechanisms of denitrification from flue gas and can help researchers select high-performance and cost-effective methods.

Abstract
The degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) in spiked soil was studied to investigate persulfate (PS) activation by the environment-friendly heterogeneous material greigite for removing organic pollutants from soil. The effects of the PS and greigite doses were investigated, and the BPA degradation rate in the lateritic red soil was lower than that in kaolin. Notably, 500 mg/kg of BPA could be effectively removed by the flower-like greigite (FLG)/PS system in 30 min. The difference in BPA degradation in kaolin and the lateritic red soil was negligible, thus indicating that the contents of components such as total organic matters in the lateritic red soil did not affect the BPA degradation rate of the FLG/PS system considerably. Furthermore, the distribution processes of BPA in the soil and liquid phase were also investigated in detail. The results showed that the water contents were a key factor in the distribution and degradation of BPA. The transfer of BPA from kaolin to the liquid phase was simpler than that from the lateritic red soil to the liquid phase. BPA might be transferred to the liquid phase first and then degraded by the FLG/PS system in that phase. Regarding BPA degradation in the lateritic red soil, BPA was degraded in the soil and liquid phases at the same time. This study proposed a pathway for BPA degradation in soil slurries by heterogeneous material/PS systems for first time, providing a deeper understanding of the degradation mechanism of organic pollutants in soil and new methods for soil remediation.

Abstract
Excessive emissions of gaseous pollutants such as SO2, NOx, heavy metals (Hg, As, etc.), H2S, VOCs, etc. have triggered a series of environmental pollution incidents. Sulfate radical (SO4•-)-based advanced oxidation technologies (AOTs) are one of the most promising gaseous pollutants removal technologies because they can not only produce active free radicals with strong oxidation ability to simultaneously degrade most of gaseous pollutants, but also their reaction processes are environmentally friendly. However, so far, the special review focusing on gaseous pollutants removal using SO4•--based AOTs is not reported. This review reports the latest advances in removal of gaseous pollutants (e.g., SO2, NOx, Hg, As, H2S, and VOCs) using SO4•--based AOTs. The performance, mechanism, active species identification and advantages/disadvantages of these removal technologies using SO4•--based AOTs are reviewed. The existing challenges and further research suggestions are also commented. Results show that SO4•--based AOTs possess good development potential in gaseous pollutant control field due to simple reagent transportation and storage, low product post-treatment requirements and strong degradation ability of refractory pollutants. Each SO4•--based AOT possesses its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of removal performance, cost, reliability, and product post-treatment. Low free radical yield, poor removal capacity, unclear removal mechanism/contribution of active species, unreliable technology and high cost are still the main problems in this field. The combined use of multiactivation technologies is one of the promising strategies to overcome these defects since it may make up for the shortcomings of independent technology. In order to improve free radical yield and pollutant removal capacity, enhancement of mass transfer and optimization design of reactor are critical issues. Comprehensive consideration of catalytic materials, removal chemistry, mass transfer and reactor is the promising route to solve these problems. In order to clarify removal mechanism, it is essential to select suitable free radical sacrificial agents, probes and spin trapping agents, which possess high selectivity for target specie, high solubility in water, and little effect on activity of catalyst itself and mass transfer/diffusion parameters. In order to further reduce investment and operating costs, it is necessary to carry out the related studies on simultaneous removal of more gaseous pollutants.

Abstract
Recycling hazardous gas of H2S is one of the most important strategies to promote sustainable development. Herein, a novel method regarding purifying H2S is proposed by using yellow phosphorus and phosphate rock slurry as absorbent. The H2SO4, formed in situ by H2S conversion, can be devoted to decompose phosphate rock, and the spent absorption slurry was applied as raw material for the production of phosphorus chemical products. According to the characterization analysis, it was found that H2S was first oxidized to SO2 via O2 as well as O3 induced by P4. Subsequently, the generated SO2 dissolved rapidly in water to form H2SO4, and then reacted with the main component of phosphate rock, CaMg(CO3)2. Most notably, the active substances, such as, O3, SO4•- and OH•, produced in the reaction process, can oxidize H2S and HS- to these sulfur products. In addition, trace amounts of Fe3+ and Mn2+ that were dissolved from phosphate rock displayed a promotional effect on the formation of active substances. Consequently, as high as 85% of H2S removal efficiency can be obtained even under acidic condition and low temperature. The proposed H2S purification method offers a promising option for sulfur recovery and H2S pollution control.

Abstract
Due to the increasingly strict emission standards of NOx on various industries, many traditional flue gas treatment methods have been gradually improved. Except for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR) methods to remove NOx from flue gas, theoxidation method is paying more attention to NOx removal now because of the potential to simultaneously remove multiple pollutants from flue gas. This paper summarizes the efficiency, reaction conditions, effect factors, and reaction mechanism of NO oxidation from the aspects of liquid-phase oxidation, gas-phase oxidation, plasma technology, and catalytic oxidation. The effects of free radicals and active components of catalysts on NO oxidation and the combination of various oxidation methods are discussed in detail. The advantages and disadvantages of different oxidation methods are summarized, and the suggestions for future research on NO oxidation are put forward at the end. The review on the NO removal by oxidation methods can provide new ideas for future studies on the NO removal from flue gas.

Abstract
A novel environment-friendly process was proposed to conduct the simultaneous removal of NO and SO2. In this process, a micro-bubble generator was utilized to generate the micro-bubble gas-liquid dispersion system (MBGLS) by inhaling mixed gas (NO, SO2 and/or air) and absorption liquid. The MBGLS was then sprayed into an oxidation absorption column reactor, in which NO and SO2 were oxidized and absorbed. As the additives, air, H2O2 and/or Na2S2O8 were brought into the MBGLS to investigate their effects on the simultaneous removal of NO and SO2. In addition, the effects of initial pH and temperature of the absorption liquid on the simultaneous removal of NO and SO2 were also explored. The performance of the MBGLS in removing NO and SO2 was excellent. Even if the MBGLS was composed of tap water, NO and SO2, the removal efficiencies of NO and SO2 respectively reached 78% and 94.4%. The additives significantly improved the removal performance of the MBGLS. Under the conditions of pH = 8 and room temperature and the addition of air, SO2 was removed completely and the NO removal efficiency reached 99.5% when Na2S2O8 to H2O2 molar ratio was 0.005/0.05. The effect of the absorbent temperature on the removal of NO and SO2 was insignificant. With the increase in pH, the removal of NO in both H2O2 aqueous solution and Na2S2O8 aqueous solution firstly increased and then decreased, but pH had no effect on the removal of SO2.

Abstract
The combustion of fossil fuels has resulted in rapidly increasing emissions of nitrogen oxide (NOx), which has caused serious human health and environmental problems. NO capture has become a research focus in gas purification because NO accounts for more than 90% of NOx and is difficult to remove. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), features the little secondary pollution and the broad-spectrum strong oxidation of hydroxyl radicals (•OH), are effective and promising strategies for NO removal from coal-fired flue gas. This review provides the state of the art of NO removal by AOPs, highlighting several methods for producing •OH and SO4•-. According to the main radicals responsible for NO removal, these processes are classified into two categories: hydroxyl radical-based AOPs (HR-AOPs) and sulfate radical-based AOPs (SR-AOPs). This paper also reviews the mechanisms of NO capture by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and SO4•- in various AOPs. A HiGee (high-gravity) enhanced AOP process for improving NO removal, characterized by intensified gas-liquid mass transfer and efficient micro-mixing, is then proposed and discussed in brief. We believe that this review will be useful for workers in this field. Graphical abstract.

CHEMOSPHERE 2020; 254:126820. [PMID: 32320832 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.126820] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2020] [Revised: 03/31/2020] [Accepted: 04/15/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
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.

Abstract
Sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitric oxide (NO) and elemental mercury (Hg0) are three common air pollutants in flue gas. SO2 and NO are the main precursors for chemical smog and Hg0 is a bio-toxicant for human. Cooperative removal of multi-air-pollutant in flue gas using radical-induced oxidation reaction is considered as one of the most promising methods due to the high removal efficiency, low cost and less secondary environmental impact. The common radicals used in air pollution control can be classified into four types: (1) hydroxyl radical (OH), (2) sulfate radical (SO4-), (3) chlorine-containing radicals (Cl, ClO2, ClO, HOCl-, etc.) and (4) ozone. This review summarizes the generation methods and mechanism of the four kinds of radicals, as well as their applications in the removal of multi-air-pollutant in flue gas. The reactivity, selectivity and reaction mechanism of the four kinds of radicals in multi-air-pollutant removal were comprehensively described. Finally, some future research suggestions on the development of new technique for cooperative removal of multi-air-pollutant in flue gas were provided.

Abstract
As it has a simple system and a small floor area, flue gas simultaneous desulfurization and denitrification technology has a good development prospect, and related research has become a hot topic in the field of flue gas purification. In this work, a novel simultaneous removal technology of NO and SO2 from flue gas using a semi-dry microwave activation persulfate system was developed for the first time. A series of experiments and characterization analyses had been implemented to research the feasibility of this new flue gas purification technology. The oxidation products, free radicals, and mechanism of NO and SO2 simultaneous removal were revealed. The effect of the main technological parameters on NO and SO2 simultaneous removal was also studied. Relevant results demonstrated that an increase in the microwave radiation power, persulfate concentration, and O2 concentration enhanced NO and SO2 simultaneous removal. The increase of NO and SO2 concentrations weakened NO and SO2 simultaneous removal. The reagent dosage, pH value of the solution, and reaction temperature showed a dual influence on NO and SO2 simultaneous removal. Free-radical capture experiments revealed that both SO4-• and •OH that were produced by microwave activation of persulfate were the major active species and played very key roles in NO and SO2 simultaneous removal. The main products (sulfate and nitrate) and byproducts (NO2) in the tail gas were found. The process application and product post-treatment routes were also proposed. The result may provide the necessary inspiration and guidance for the development and application of microwave-activated advanced oxidation technology in the flue gas treatment area.

Abstract
This study evaluates the chemistry, kinetics, and mass transfer aspects of the removal of NO and SO2 simultaneously from flue gas induced by the combined heat and Fe2+ activation of aqueous persulfate. The work involves experimental studies and the development of a mathematical model utilizing a comprehensive reaction scheme for detailed process evaluation, and to validate the results of an experimental study at 30-70 °C, which demonstrated that both SO2 and Fe2+ improved NO removal, while the SO2 is almost completely removed. The model was used to correlate experimental data, predict reaction species and nitrogen-sulfur (N-S) product concentrations, to obtain new kinetic data, and to estimate mass transfer coefficient (KLa) for NO and SO2 at different temperatures. The model percent conversion results appear to fit the data remarkably well for both NO and SO2 in the temperature range of 30-70 °C. The conversions ranged from 43.2 to 76.5% and 98.9 to 98.1% for NO and SO2, respectively, in the 30-70 °C range. The model predictions at the higher temperature of 90 °C were 90.0 and 97.4% for NO and SO2, respectively. The model also predicted decrease in KLa for SO2 of 1.097 × 10-4 to 8.88 × 10-5 s-1 (30-90 °C) and decrease in KLa for NO of 4.79 × 10-2 to 3.67 × 10-2 s-1 (30-50 °C) but increase of 4.36 × 10-2 to 4.90 × 10-2 s-1 at higher temperatures (70-90 °C). This emerging sulfate-radical-based process could be applied to the treatment of flue gases from combustion sources. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
A nano-sized iron loaded ZSM-5 zeolite (Fe/ZSM-5) catalyst was firstly used to activate (NH4)2S2O8 solution for the simultaneous removal of multi-pollutant from flue gas. The simultaneous removal efficiencies 100% of SO2, 72.6% of NO and 93.4% of Hg° were achieved under the condition that the catalyst dose was 0.8 g/L, concentration, pH and temperature of (NH4)2S2O8 solution were 0.03 mol/L, 5 and 65 °C, respectively. The stability of catalyst was checked by a continuous test, proving that the catalytic activity was maintained for 4 h and the leached iron reached low levels. Based on the catalyst characterizations, product analysis and literatures, the removal mechanism was speculated preliminarily, during which, OH and SO4- played key roles for oxidizing NO and Hg° into NO3- and Hg2+.

Abstract
The use of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) to integrate flue gas treatments for SO2, NOx and Hg0 into a single process unit is rapidly gaining research attention. AOPs are processes that rely on the generation of mainly the hydroxyl radical. This work evaluates the effectiveness of the simultaneous removal of NO and SO2 from flue gas utilizing AOP induced by the combined heat and Fe2+ activation of aqueous persulfate, and elucidates the reaction pathways. The results indicated that both SO2 in the flue gas and Fe2+ in solution improved NO removal, while the SO2 is almost completely removed. Increased temperature led to increase in NO removal in the absence and presence of both Fe2+ and SO2, and in the absence of either SO2 or Fe2+, but the enhanced NO removal due to the presence of SO2 alone dominated at all temperatures. The removal of NO increased from 77.5% at 30 °C to 80.5% and 82.3% at 50 °C and 70 °C in the presence of SO2 alone, and from 35.3% to 62.7% and 81.2%, respectively, in the presence of Fe2+ alone. However, in the presence of both SO2 and Fe2+, NO conversion is 46.2% at 30 °C, increased only slightly to 48.2% at 50 °C; but sharply increased to 78.7% at 70 °C compared to 63.9% for persulfate-only activation. Results suggest NO removal in the presence of SO2 is equally effective by heat-only or heat-Fe2+ activation as the temperature increases. The results should be useful for future developments of advanced oxidation processes for flue gas treatments.

Abstract
A novel process on simultaneous absorption of SO2 and NO from flue gas using ultrasound (US)/Fe2+/heat coactivated persulfate system was proposed. The influencing factors, active species, products and mechanism of SO2 and NO removal were investigated. The results indicate that US enhances NO removal due to enhancement of mass transfer and chemical reaction. US of 28kHz is more effective than that of 40kHz. NO removal efficiency increases with increasing persulfate concentration, ultrasonic power density and Fe2+ concentration (at high persulfate concentration). Solution pH, solution temperature and Fe2+ concentration (at low persulfate concentration) have double effect on NO removal. SO2 is completely removed in most of tested removal systems, except for using water absorption. US, Fe2+ and heat have a synergistic effect for activating persulfate to produce free radicals, and US/Fe2+/heat coactivated persulfate system achieves the highest NO removal efficiency. ·OH and SO4-· play a leading role for NO oxidation, and persulfate only plays a complementary role for NO oxidation.

Abstract
Persulfate (PS) is widely used as an oxidant for in situ chemical remediation of contaminated groundwater. In this study we demonstrated for the first time that PS could be activated by bicarbonate. Acetaminophen was used as the probe compound to examine the reactivity of PS/bicarbonate system. It was found that acetaminophen could be effectively transformed and the reaction rate appeared pseudo-first-order to the concentrations of both acetaminophen and PS. Radical scavenger tests indicated that neither free radicals (SO4- and HO) nor superoxide (O2-) was responsible for acetaminophen transformation. Generation of singlet oxygen (1O2) was verified using furfuryl alcohol (FFA) as a probe. Formation of 1O2 was further quantified in D2O fortified solution based on kinetic solvent isotopic effect (KSIE) but it was found that 1O2 contributed only 51.4% of the total FFA transformation. The other 48.6% was presumed to be ascribed to the reaction with peroxymonocarbonate (HCO4-). However, the transformation of acetaminophen was mostly due to the reaction with HCO4- but not 1O2. Instead of degradation, HCO4- oxidized acetaminophen via a one-electron abstraction mechanism resulting in the generation of acetaminophen radicals which coupled to each other to form dimers and trimers. HCO4- also hydrolyzed rapidly to form hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) which led to the formation of 1O2, during which O2- was a key intermediates. Because bicarbonate is ubiquitously presented in groundwater, the findings of this research provide important insights into the fundamental processes involved in PS oxidation in subsurface.

Abstract
This work studied the bimetallic nanoparticles Fe-Ag (nZVI-Ag) activated persulfate (PS) in aqueous solution using response surface methodology. The Box-Behnken design (BBD) was employed to optimize three parameters (nZVI-Ag dose, reaction temperature, and PS concentration) using 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) as the target pollutant. The synthesis of nZVI-Ag particles was carried out through a reduction of FeCl2 with NaBH4 followed by reductive deposition of Ag. The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area. The BBD was considered a satisfactory model to optimize the process. Confirmatory tests were carried out using predicted and experimental values under the optimal conditions (50 mg L-1 nZVI-Ag, 21 mM PS at 57 °C) and the complete removal of 4-CP achieved experimentally was successfully predicted by the model, whereas the mineralization degree predicted (90%) was slightly overestimated against the measured data (83%).

Removal kinetics for NO and SO2 by NaClO2 solution mist were investigated in a wet electrostatic precipitator. By varying the molar concentrations of NO, SO2, and NaClO2, the removal rates of NO and SO2 confirmed to range from 34.8 to 72.9 mmol/m3 s and 36.6 to 84.7 mmol/m3 s, respectively, at a fixed gas residence time of 0.25 s. The rate coefficients of NO and SO2 were calculated to be 0.679 (mmol/m3)-0.33 s-1 and 1.401 (mmol/m3)-0.1 s-1 based on the rates of the individual removal of NO and SO2. Simultaneous removal of NO and SO2 investigated after the evaluation of removal rates for their individual treatment was performed. At a short gas residence time, SO2 gas removed more quickly by a mist of NaClO2 solution than NO gas in simultaneous removal experiments. This is because SO2 gas, which has a relatively high solubility in solution, was absorbed more rapidly at the gas-liquid interface than NO gas. NO and SO2 gases were absorbed as nitrite [Formula: see text] and sulfite [Formula: see text] ions, respectively, by the NaClO2 solution mist at the gas-liquid interface. Then, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] were oxidized to nitrate [Formula: see text] and sulfate [Formula: see text], respectively, by reactions with [Formula: see text], ClO2, HClO, and ClO in the liquid phase.

Abstract
Sulfate radicals (SO4(-)) generated by activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and persulfate (PS) are highly oxidative and applied to degrade various organic pollutants. This research was designed to investigate formation of halogenated by-products in Co(2+) activated PMS process in the presence of halides and natural organic matter (NOM). It was revealed that no halogenated by-products were detected in the presence of Cl(-) while 189 μg/L bromoform and 100.7 μg/L dibromoacetic acid (DBAA) were found after 120 h when 2 mg/L NOM, 0.1 mM Br(-), 1.0 mM PMS, and 5 μL Co(2+) were present initially. These products are known as disinfection by-products (DBPs) since they are formed in water disinfection processes. Formation of DBPs was even more significant in the absence of Co(2+). The data indicate that both PMS and SO4(-) can transform Br(-) to reactive bromine species which react with NOM to form halogenated by-products. Less DBP formation in Co(2+)-PMS systems was due to the further destruction of DBPs by SO4(-). More DBPs species including chlorinated ones were detected in the presence of both Cl(-) and Br(-). However, more brominated species produced than chlorinate ones generally. The total DBP yield decreased with the increase of Cl(-) content when total halides kept constant. This is one of the few studies that demonstrate the formation of halogenated DBPs in Co(2+)/PMS reaction systems, which should be taken into consideration in the application of SO4(-) based oxidation technologies.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) and nano-sized zero-valent iron-reduced graphene oxide (nZVI-rGO) composite were prepared. The GO and nZVI-rGO composite were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and Raman spectroscopy. The size of nZVI was about 6 nm as observed by TEM. The system of nZVI-rGO and persulfate (PS) was used for the degradation of trichloroethylene (TCE) in water, and showed 26.5% more efficiency as compared to nZVI/PS system. The different parameters were studied to determine the efficiency of nZVI-rGO to activate the PS system for the TCE degradation. By increasing the PS amount, TCE removal was also improved while no obvious effect was observed by varying the catalyst loading. Degradation was decreased as the TCE initial concentration was increased from 20 to 100 mg/L. Moreover, when initial solution pH was increased, efficiency deteriorated to 80%. Bicarbonate showed more negative effect on TCE removal among the solution matrix. To better understand the effects of radical species in the system, the scavenger tests were performed. The •SO4(-) and •O2(-) were predominant species responsible for TCE removal. The nZVI-rGO-activated PS process shows potential applications in remediation of highly toxic organic contaminants such as TCE present in the groundwater. Graphical abstract Persulfate activated by reduced graphene oxide and nano-sized zero-valent iron composite can be used for efficient degradation of trichloroethylene (TCE) in water.

Abstract
Sulfate radicals ( [Formula: see text] ) are applied to degrade various organic pollutants. Due to its high oxidative potential, [Formula: see text] is presumed to be able to transform bromide to reactive bromine species that can react with natural organic matter subsequently to form brominated products including brominated disinfection by-products (Br-DBPs). This research was designed to investigate the transformation of bromide in thermo activated persulfate oxidation process in the presence of humic acid (HA). Significant formation of bromoform and bromoacetic acids was verified. Their formation was attributed to the reactions of HA and reactive bromine species including Br·, [Formula: see text] HOBr(-), and free bromine resulted from the oxidation of bromide by [Formula: see text] . Yields of Br-DBPs increased monotonically at persulfate concentration of 1.0 mM and working temperature of 70 °C. However, the time-depended formation exhibited an increasing and the decreasing profile when persulfate was 5.0 mM, suggesting further degradation of organic bromine. HPLC/ICP-MS analysis demonstrated that the organic bromine was eventually transformed to bromate at this condition. Thus, a transformation scheme was proposed in which the bromine could be recycled multiple times between inorganic bromide and organic bromine before being finally transformed to bromate. This is the first study that reveals the comprehensive transformation map of bromine in [Formula: see text] based reaction systems, which should be taken into consideration when such technologies are used to eliminate contamination in real practice.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The oxidation of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) compounds in sediments by sodium persulfate (Na2S2O8) simultaneously activated by temperature and nano zero-valent iron (nZVI) as the source of catalytic ferrous iron was investigated. The effect of various controlling factors, including S2O8(2-) (0.017-170 g/L), nZVI (0.01-1 g/L), and temperature (50-70 °C) were performed. The efficiency to remove PAHs was 10.7-39.1% for unactivated persulfate. The treated sample had over 50% of the persulfate still remaining from an initial persulfate dose of 170 g/L, whereas less than 1% of the persulfate remained from an initial persulfate dose of 0.017, 0.17, and 1.7 g/L. Adequate persulfate (170 g/L) must be present because it is the source of the sulfate radicals responsible for the degradation of PAHs. Results indicated that increasing temperature and the addition of nZVI into a persulfate-slurry system could enhance the persulfate oxidation process. The best removal efficiency (90%) was achieved after 24 hr while adding nZVI (0.01 g/L) to persulfate (170 g/L) at temperature of 70 °C. The results suggested that nZVI assisted persulfate oxidation without elevating temperature may be a suitable and economic alternative for the ex situ treatment of PAH-contaminated sediments. IMPLICATIONS Nano zero-valent iron (nZVI) has been successfully applied to transform/degrade contaminants in soils and water. Additionally, nZVI has been used as a catalyst to activate persulfate for the treatment of various contaminants. In this study, with the support of temperature, nZVI-persulfate oxidation system for treatment of PAH-contaminated sediments was improved significantly and the treated sediment could meet remediation goals.

Abstract
In this article, a novel technique on removal of elemental mercury (Hg(0)) from flue gas by thermally activated ammonium persulfate ((NH4)(2)S(2)O(8)) has been developed for the first time. Some experiments were carried out in a bubble column reactor to evaluate the effects of process parameters on Hg(0) removal. The mechanism and kinetics of Hg(0) removal are also studied. The results show that the parameters, (NH4)(2)S(2)O(8) concentration, activation temperature and solution pH, have significant impacts on Hg(0) removal. The parameters, Hg(0), SO2 and NO concentration, only have small effects on Hg(0) removal. Hg(0) is removed by oxidations of (NH4)(2)S(2)O(8), sulfate and hydroxyl free radicals. When (NH4)(2)S(2)O(8) concentration is more than 0.1 mol/L and solution pH is lower than 9.71, Hg(0) removal by thermally activated (NH4)(2)S(2)O(8) meets a pseudo-first-order fast reaction with respect to Hg(0). However, when (NH4)(2)S(2)O(8) concentration is less than 0.1 mol/L or solution pH is higher than 9.71, the removal process meets a moderate speed reaction with respect to Hg(0). The above results indicate that this technique is a feasible method for emission control of Hg(0) from flue gas.
