Abstract
Advanced oxidation technologies based on peroxymonosulfate (PMS) have been extensively applied for the degradation of antibiotics. However, the degradation process inevitably introduces SO42- and other sulfur-containing anions, these pollutants pose a huge threat to the water and soil environment. Addressing these concerns, this study introduced PMS oxidation into a multi-chamber membrane capacitive deionization (MC-MCDI) device to achieve simultaneous tetracycline (TC) degradation and removal of PMS reaction byproduct ions. The experimental results demonstrated that when the TC solution (40 mg L-1) was pre-adsorbed for 10 min, the voltage was 1.2 V and the concentration of PMS solution added was 4 mg mL-1, the removal efficiency of TC and ion can reach 77.4 % and 46.5 % respectively. Furthermore, the activation process of PMS in MC-MCDI/PMS system and the reactive oxygen (ROS) that mainly produce degradation were deeply investigated. Finally, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was employed to identify intermediates of TC degradation, propose potential degradation pathways, and analyze the toxicities of the intermediates. In addition, in five cycles, the MC-MCDI/PMS system demonstrated excellent stability. This study provides an effective strategy for treating TC wastewater and a novel approach for simultaneous TC degradation and desalination.

Sludge-derived iron-carbon material enhancing the removal of refractory organics in landfill leachate: Characteristics optimization, removal mechanism, and molecular-level investigation. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 904:166883. [PMID: 37690764 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.166883] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 09/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023]
Abstract
Mature landfill leachate is a refractory organic wastewater, and needs physical and chemical pretreatments contemporaneously, e.g. iron-carbon micro-electrolysis (IC-ME). In this study, a novel iron-carbon (Fe-C) material was synthesized from waste activated sludge to be utilized in IC-ME for landfill leachate treatment. The pyrolysis temperature, mass ratio of iron to carbon, and solid-liquid ratio in leachate treatment were optimized as 900 °C with 1.59 and 34.7 g/L. Under these optimal conditions, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency reached 79.44 %, which was 2.6 times higher than that of commercial Fe-C material (30.1%). This excellent COD removal performance was indicated to a better mesoporous structure, and uniform distribution of zero-valent iron in novel Fe-C material derived from sludge. The contribution order of COD removal in IC-ME treatment for landfill leachate was proven as coagulation, adsorption, and redox effects by a contrast experiment. The removal of COD includes synthetic organic compounds, e.g. carcinogens, pharmaceuticals and personal care products. The contents of CHO, CHON, and CHOS compounds of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in the leachate were decreased, and both the molecular weight and unsaturation of lipids, lignin, and tannic acids concentration were also reduced. Some newly generated small molecular DOM in the treated leachate further confirmed the existence of the redox effect to degrade DOM in leachate. The total cost of sludge-derived Fe-C material was only USD$ 152.8/t, which could save 76% of total compared with that of commercial Fe-C materials. This study expands the prominent source of Fe-C materials with excellent performance, and deepens the understanding of its application for leachate treatment.

Abstract
The health of living things and the ecosystem of the planet have both been negatively impacted by antibiotic residue in the water environment. There has been a lot of interest in the catalyst made of metal-carbon compounds from MOFs as a potential solution for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to produce reactive oxygen species to catalyze the degradation of residual antibiotics. In this study, zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-67) on bamboo fiber bundles (BFB) were pyrolyzed to produce magnetic Co/CoO nanoparticles with porous polyhedrons mounted on bamboo charcoal fiber bundles (BCFB)(BCFB@PCo/CoO). Specific surface area of obtained BCFB@PCo/CoO with abundant active sites arrives at 302.41 m2/g. The catalytic degradation efficiency of Tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH), a target contaminant, could reach up to 99.94% within 15 minutes (PMS = 0.4g/L, Cat. = 0.2g/L). The effects of potential factors, including PMS dosage, interference ions, and temperature, on catalytic degradation efficiencies were investigated. Magnetic recovery and antimicrobial properties of the BCFB@PCo/CoO were also evaluated and the possible degradation pathways were explored. Catalytic mechanism explorations of BCFB@PCo/CoO/PMS system reveal MOF-derived magnetic Co/CoO nanoparticles embedded in BCFB promote the synergistic interaction of both radicals and non-radical pathways for catalytic degradation of TCH. The novel BCFB@PCo/CoO provides an alternative to deal with wastewater containing antibiotics.

Abstract
In recent years, water pollution has posed a serious threat to aquatic organisms and humans. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) show high oxidation, good selectivity, wide pH range and no secondary pollution in the removal of organic pollutants in water. Carbon-based materials are emerging green catalysts that can effectively activate persulfates to generate radical and non-radical active species to degrade organic pollutants. Compared with transition metal catalysts, carbon-based materials are widely used in SR-AOPs because of their low cost, non-toxicity, acid and alkali resistance, large specific surface area, and scalable surface charge, which can be used for selective control of specific water pollutants. This paper mainly presents several carbon-based materials used to activate PMS, including raw carbon materials and modified carbon materials (heteroatom-doped and metal-doped), analyzes and summarizes the mechanism of activating PMS by carbon-based catalysts, and discusses the influencing factors (temperature, pH, PMS concentration, catalyst concentration, inorganic anions, inorganic cations and dissolved oxygen) in the activation process. Finally, the future challenges and prospects of carbon-based materials in water pollution control are also presented.

Abstract
In this research, the treatment of methylene blue (MB) dye wastewater by a novel system that combines H2O2 with an aluminum-carbon micro-electrolysis (ACE) was explored. The effects of the H2O2 amount, initial pH, aluminum to carbon ratio, total aluminum-carbon mass, dye concentration, and reaction temperature on degradation of MB were investigated. The findings revealed that under the following conditions: H2O2 34.0 mg/L, initial pH of 3.0, aluminum-to-carbon ratio of 2:1, total aluminum-carbon mass of 2.0 g/L, MB concentration of 20 mg/L, and 20 °C, the degradation rate of MB could reach 99.3% after 180 min, which is 18.4% more compared with ACE at the same conditions without H2O2. Through the quenching experiments, it was proved that the efficient free radicals produced during degradation are •OH and •O2-. Finally, a possible mechanism of H2O2 enhanced aluminum carbon micro-electrolysis (HP-ACE) for MB degradation was discussed.

Abstract
With the rapid economic development, the discharge of industrial wastewater and municipal wastewater containing many refractory organic pollutants is increasing, so there is an urgent need for processes that can treat refractory organics in wastewater. Iron-carbon micro electrolysis and advanced oxidation based on persulfate radicals (SO4-·) have received much attention in the field of organic wastewater treatment. Iron-carbon micro electrolysis activated persulfate (Fe-C/PS) treatment of wastewater is characterized by high oxidation efficiency and no secondary pollution. This paper reviews the mechanism and process of Fe-C/PS, degradation of organics in different wastewater, and the influencing factors. In addition, the degradation efficiency and optimal reaction conditions (oxidant concentration, catalyst concentration, iron-carbon material, and pH) of Fe-C/PS in the treatment of refractory organics in wastewater are summarized. Moreover, the important factors affecting the degradation of organics by Fe-C/PS are presented. Finally, we analyzed the challenges and the prospects for the future of Fe-C/PS in application, and concluded that the main future directions are to improve the degradation efficiency and cost by synthesizing stable and efficient catalysts, optimizing process parameters, and expanding the application scope.

Abstract
Carbon-based materials activated peracetic acid (PAA) to repair groundwater is an environmentally friendly and low-cost technology to overcome secondary pollution problems. In this study, thermally modified activated carbon (AC600) was applied to activate PAA to degrade sulfamethoxazole (SMX). And the effect of groundwater pH, chloride ion (Cl-), bicarbonate (HCO3-), sulfate ion (SO42-), and natural organic matter (NOM) on SMX removal by AC600/PAA process was studied in detail. PAA could be effectively activated by AC600. Increasing AC600 dose (10-100mg/L) or PAA dosages (0.065-0.39 mM) generally enhanced the SMX removal, the excellent performance in SMX removal was achieved at 50 mg/L AC600 and 0.26 mM PAA. The removal of SMX was well-described by second-order kinetic, with the rate constant (kobs) of 10.79 M-1s-1, both much greater than the removal constants of PAA alone (0.034 M-1s-1) and AC600 alone (1.774 M-1s-1). R-O·(CH3C(O)OO·, CH3C(O)O·) and electron-transfer process were proved to be responsible for the removal of SMX while HO· and 1O2 made little to no contribution to the novel PAA/AC600 system, which differs from typical advanced oxidation processes. The SMX can be removed effectively over a wide pH range (3-9), exhibiting a remarkable pH-tolerant performance. Sulfate ion (SO42-), dissolved oxygen (DO), NOM displayed negligible influence on the SMX removal. Bicarbonate (HCO3-) exerted an inhibitory effect on SMX abatement, while chloride ion (Cl-) promoted the removal of SMX. This showed excellent anti-interference capacity and satisfactory decontamination performance under actual groundwater conditions. Furthermore, the degradation pathways of SMX were proposed, there was no obvious difference in the acute toxicity of the mixed products during the degradation process. It will facilitate further research of metal-free catalyst/PAA system as a new strategy for groundwater in-situ remediation technology.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC) is a typical ecotoxic antibiotic, which easily causes bacterial resistance. Therefore, it is necessary to remove TC from the water environment. In recent years, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) rely on the use of highly reactive oxidizing sulfate radical which is turning into an increasingly popular as a tool of the removal of TC. In this study, cobalt-doped pomelo peel carbon composite (Co-PPCC) was prepared by the impregnation coprecipitation method to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to remove TC. SEM, BET, XRD, FTIR, XPS, TGA, and other analytical techniques indicated that a carbon composite catalyst with excellent performance has been successfully prepared. TC was removed by the synergistic effect of adsorption and catalytic degradation processes. The adsorption capacity was limited (only approximately 20% within 60 min) and tending to saturation, which indicated that the removal of TC in the Co-PPCC/PMS system was mainly due to oxidative degradation. The influence of the Co-PPCC and PMS dosage, initial TC concentration, initial pH values, and coexisting anions on the removal efficiency of TC was investigated. When the Co-PPCC catalyst dosage was 1 g/L, PMS concentration was 2 g/L, and pH value was 11, the removal efficiency of TC with a concentration of 50 mg/L reached 99% within 60 min. Free radical quenching experiment and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis indicated that the free radical and non-radical degradation processes exist in the Co-PPCC/PMS/TC system. The main degradation products and the possible transformation pathways of TC were explored by LC-MS. In addition, after four cycles of Co-PPCC tests, the removal efficiency of TC can reach 64%. This study provides a new method to reuse abandoned pomelo peels and synthesize an economical and environmentally friendly catalyst for activating peroxymonosulfate to remove TC antibiotics in water.

Abstract
Carbamazepine (CBZ) antibiotic organic contamination wastewater poses a huge threat to environmental safety. An advanced oxidation technology (Fe0/PDS/US) of using ultrasound (US) enhanced zero-valent iron/potassium persulfate (Fe0/PDS) can remove CBZ effectively. The optimal reaction conditions were determined by exploring the effect of single-factor experimental conditions such as ultrasonic power, ultrasonic frequency, CBZ concentration, solution pH, PDS dosage, and Fe0 dosage on the removal of CBZ. In addition, we also investigated into the effect of background ions (PO43-, HCO3-, Cl- and HA) on Fe0/PDS/US and analyzed the related results. The mechanism of CBZ removal in Fe0/PDS/US were explored by analyzing CBZ removal efficiency and reaction rates, the ion concentration of S2O82-, SO42-, Fe2+ and Fe3+, pH and the active radicals. The result indicates that US can improve the efficiency of activated PDS and expand the pH range of Fe0/PDS. It has prominent performance in catalytically degrading CBZ when the pH is 10.0. SO4•-, •OH and O2•- all coexist in the Fe0/PDS/US and make contribution to CBZ removal, whereas the SO4•- plays a key role. US can greatly promotes the degradation of target pollutant CBZ by speeding up the dissolution of the outer portion of iron powder, producing sufficient amount of Fe2+ with a continuous and stable way, and better activating S2O82- to generate sufficient SO4•- radicals. The degradation of CBZ may embrace three reaction processes, in which organic intermediate products with low molecular weight and biological toxicity is produced, boosting further mineralization and biodegradation of products. The Fe0/PDS/US is of great potential application value in removal of organic pollution and environmental purification.

Abstract
Rapid industrialization and urbanization have produced a lot of hazardous substances in water and wastewater, which has turned into a crucial issue to the environment and the public health. Recently, iron carbon microelectrolysis (IC-ME) has attracted extensive attention in environmental remediation due to its low costs and excellent performance. Nevertheless, there is still a lack of a more systematic review on IC-ME preparation methods, their performance, and the interaction mechanisms of IC-ME in the remediation of wastewater. Herein, this work summarizes the synthetic methods, application of IC-ME materials, and the mechanism of pollutant removal by IC-ME. A variety approaches have been applied to prepare IC-ME materials, and the preparation methods and conditions have a certain influence on the properties of IC-ME materials, thus affecting the performance of pollutant removal. The mechanisms of IC-ME for contaminants removal are very complex, including adsorption, coprecipitation, reduction, surface complexation, and oxidation. Moreover, research vacant fields and problems that existed in the application of IC-ME are proposed. At last, the problems to be addressed to adapt IC to future applications are introduced. This paper reviews and prospects IC-ME wastewater remediation technology, which provides a reference for further scientific research and engineering applications.

RSC Adv 2021; 11:18525-18538. [PMID: 35480906 PMCID: PMC9033424 DOI: 10.1039/d1ra01640g] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2021] [Accepted: 05/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
The recycling of agricultural and food waste is an effective way to reduce resource waste and ameliorate the shortage of natural resources. The treatment of antibiotic wastewater is a current research hotspot. In this study, waste tea residue was used as a raw material to prepare biochar (T-BC) and loaded with Fe3O4 as a catalyst to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for oxidative degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH). Analysis techniques such as BET, SEM, XRD, FT-IR, XPS and VSM indicated that the heterogeneous catalyst (Fe3O4@T-BC) with good surface properties and magnetic properties was successfully prepared. The results of batch-scale experiments illustrated that when the dose of the Fe3O4@T-BC catalyst was 1 g L-1, the concentration of PMS was 1 g L-1, and the initial pH was 7, the degradation rate of TCH with a concentration of 50 mg L-1 reached 97.89% after 60 minutes of reaction. When the initial pH was 11, the degradation rate of TCH reached 99.86%. After the catalyst was recycled four times using an external magnet, the degradation rate of TCH could still reach 71.32%. The data of removal of TCH could be best fitted by a pseudo-first-order model. The analysis of the degradation mechanism through a free radical quenching experiment and EPR analysis, as well as the exploration of TCH intermediate products and reaction paths through the LC-MS method, all confirmed that the Fe3O4@T-BC prepared by this method is expected to become a cost-effective and environmentally friendly heterogeneous catalyst for activating persulfate degradation of tetracycline antibiotics.
