State-of-art advances on removal, degradation and electrochemical monitoring of 4-aminophenol pollutants in real samples: A review. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 222:115338. [PMID: 36702186 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.115338] [Citation(s) in RCA: 73] [Impact Index Per Article: 73.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2022] [Revised: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
p_Aminophenol, namely 4-aminophenol (4-AP), is an aromatic compound including hydroxyl and amino groups contiguous together on the benzene ring, which are suitable chemically reactive, amphoteric, and alleviating agents in nature. Amino phenols are appropriate precursors for synthesizing oxazoles and oxazines. However, since the toxicity of aniline and phenol can harm human and herbal organs, it is essential to improve a reliable technique for the determination of even a trace amount of amino phenols, as well as elimination or (bio)degradation/photodegradation of it to protect both the environment and people's health. For this purpose, various analytical methods have been suggested up till now, including spectrophotometry, liquid chromatography, spectrofluorometric and capillary electrophoresis, etc. However, some drawbacks such as the requirement of complex instruments, high costs, not being portable, slow response time, low sensitivity, etc. prevent them to be employed in a wide range and swift in-situ applications. In this regard, besides the efforts such as (bio)degradation/photodegradation or removal of 4-AP pollutants from real samples, electroanalytical techniques have become a promising alternative for monitoring them with high sensitivity. In this review, it was aimed to emphasize and summarize the recent advances, challenges, and opportunities for removal, degradation, and electrochemical sensing 4-AP in real samples. Electroanalytical monitoring of amino phenols was reviewed in detail and explored the various types of electrochemical sensors applied for detecting and monitoring in real samples. Furthermore, the various technique of removal and degradation of 4-AP in industrial and urban wastes were also deliberated. Moreover, deep criticism of multifunctional nanomaterials to be utilized as a catalyst, adsorbent/biosorbent, and electroactive material for the fabrication of electrochemical sensors was covered along with their unique properties. Future perspectives and conclusions were also criticized to pave the way for further studies in the field of application of up-and-coming nanostructures in environmental applications.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:34827-34839.

Abstract
Nano-zero-valent copper (nZVC) is a superior molecular oxygen (O2) activator for the abatement of organic pollutants due to its high electron utilization rate. However, the activation efficiency of O2 is compromised by the agglomeration tendency of nZVC particles and the concomitant reduction of the available active sites. To address this problem, the biochar (BC) with porous structure and abundant surface functional groups is utilized to disperse and stabilize nZVC for O2 activation (simplified as the nZVC/BC/O2 system) for efficient removal of tetracycline (TC). The nZVC/BC composite possesses a high specific area with well-distributed nZVC particles on the BC surface, which guarantees the superior dispersion and high reactivity in the activation of O2. The efficacy of the nZVC/BC/O2 system for TC abatement is evaluated and the underlying mechanism is elucidated. The results show that nZVC/BC/O2 system can achieve excellent removal of TC with the efficiencies of more than 85% in the pH range of 4.0-9.0, which originated from the combined action of complexation and degradation. The degradation is dominated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) including •OH, •O2- and 1O2 generated by Cu0/Cu+ activated O2 while the generation of Cu2+ via oxygen oxidation on the surface of nZVC/BC can remove TC by complexation adsorption. This study highlights the complexation and degradation in the removal of TC and can be expected to exhibit application prospects in the water and wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Pathogenic microorganisms pose a serious threat to global public health due to their persistent adaptation and growing resistance to antibiotics. Alternative therapeutic strategies are required to address this growing threat. Bactericidal antibiotics that are routinely prescribed to treat infections rely on hydroxyl radical formation for their therapeutic efficacies. We developed a redox approach to target bacteria using organotransition metal complexes to mediate the reduction of cellular O2 to H2O2, as a precursor for hydroxyl radicals via Fenton reaction. We prepared a library of 480 unique organoruthenium Schiff-base complexes using a coordination-driven three-component assembly strategy and identified the lead organoruthenium complex Ru1 capable of selectively invoking oxidative stress in Gram-positive bacteria, in particular methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, via transfer hydrogenation reaction and/or single electron transfer on O2. This strategy paves the way for a targeted antimicrobial approach leveraging on the redox chemistry of organotransition metal complexes to combat drug resistance.

The effects of nonredox metal ions on the activation of peroxymonosulfate for organic pollutants degradation in aqueous solution with cobalt based catalysts: A new mechanism investigation. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 382:121081. [PMID: 31470296 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2019.121081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2019] [Revised: 08/05/2019] [Accepted: 08/21/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Herein, a new peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation system was proposed employing nonredox metal ions as Lewis acids (LA), which have been widely recognized to play important roles in many biological and chemical oxidations. With Co2+ ions as model catalysts, it was found that oxidizing power of PMS was enhanced after binding weak LA such as Ca2+ ions, leading to its easier reduction to active radicals and substantial enhancement of dye degradation. The promoting effect of Ca2+ was also observed with other cobalt catalysts including CoFe2O4 and Co3O4. The rate of PMS decomposition in Co2++LA/PMS system was correlated with Lewis acidity; while in the presence of strong LA including La3+ and Y3+, the dye degradation rate declined. The interactions of LA with PMS were characterized and the detailed mechanism was proposed. The present study provides the first example of the promoting effect of weak LA on PMS activation with cobalt based catalysts.

Abstract
Novel iron encapsulated in nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) supported on porous carbon (Fe@N-C) 3D structured materials for degrading organic pollutants were fabricated from a renewable, low-cost biomass, melamine, and iron salt as the precursors. SEM and TEM micrographs show that iron encapsulated bamboo shaped CNTs are vertically standing on carbon sheets, and thus, a 3D hybrid was formed. The catalytic activities of the prepared samples were thoroughly evaluated by activation of peroxymonosulfate for catalytic oxidation of Orange II solutions. The influences of some reaction conditions (pH, temperature, and concentrations of reactants, peroxymonosulfate, and dye) were extensively evaluated. It was revealed that the adsorption could enrich the pollutant which was then rapidly degraded by the catalytically generated radicals, accelerating the continuous adsorption of residual pollutant. Remarkable carbon structure, introduction of CNTs, and N/Fe doping result in promoted adsorption capability and catalytic performances. Due to the simple synthetic process and cheap carbon precursor, Fe@N-C 3D hybrid can be easily scaled up and promote the development of Fenton-like catalysts.
