ZFNPs were prepared by a co-precipitation process and then characterized with transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and BET surface area. Using such ZFNPs as catalyst, the degradation of BTA was investigated. Due to the high catalytic activity of ZFNPs, PE-Fenton like process showed efficient degradation of BTA. The influencing factors such as pH, dosage of ZFNPs, applied potential and initial concentration of BTA were systematically investigated. Under the optimum conditions, 91.2% of BTA was removed after 180 rain treatment.展开更多

Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) could be efficiently degraded at near neutral pH. Conditional parameters affecting the SMX degradation in the ZVI/H_(2)O_(2)/HA/MF system, e.g., pH and the dosages of ZVI, HA and H_(2)O_(2), were investigated. Unlike the acid-favorable ZVI/H_(2)O_(2) and ZVI/H_(2)O_(2)/HA systems, the MF-assisted system exhibited good performances even at pH up to 6.0 and highest degradation rate at pH of 5.0. ^(·)OH was still identified as the responsible oxidant. A mechanism involving the MF-enhanced heterogeneous-homogeneous iron cycle was proposed in the near-neutral ZVI/H_(2)O_(2)/HA system. Without MF, HA-induced reductive dissolution of the surface iron oxides occurred and thus leaded to homogeneous Fenton reactions. After the introduction of MF, the gradient magnetic field formed on the ZVI particles would induce the generation of concentration cells of Fe(II) and local corrosion of iron. Large amounts of aqueous and bounded Fe(II) catalyzed H_(2)O_(2) to efficiently produce ^(·)OH, while HA maintained the surface and bulk cycles of Fe(II)/Fe(III). The result of study is expected to provide a green, energy-free method in improving the effectiveness of ZVI-based Fenton-like technologies at weak-acidic circumstances.展开更多

The prepared FeШGluS iW was characterized using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy,thermogravimetry,Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy,ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy,X-ray diffraction,and field-emission scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that FeШGluS iW has the formula [Fe(C5H8NO4)(H2O)]2SiW 12O40?13H2O,with glutamate moiety and Keggin-structured SiW 12O404- heteropolyanion. The catalyst showed high catalytic activity in 4-CP degradation in the dark and under irradiation. Under the conditions of 4-CP 100 mg/L,FeШGluS iW 1.0 g/L,H2O2 20 mmol/L,and pH = 6.5,4-CP was completely decomposed in 40 min in the dark and in 15 min under irradiation. When the reaction time was prolonged to 2 h,the corresponding total organic carbon removals under dark and irradiated conditions were ca. 27% and 72%,respectively. The high catalytic activity of FeI IIGluS iW is resulted from hydrogen bonding of H2O2 on the FeI IIGluS iW surface. The enhanced degradation of 4-CP under irradiation arises from simultaneous oxidation of 4-CP through Fenton-like and photocatalytic processes respectively catalyzed by ferric iron and the SiW 12O404- hetropolyanion in FeШGluS iW.展开更多

The results obtained were compared with those obtained from conditioning the same alum sludge using cationic and anionic polymers. Experimental results show that Fenton's reagent was the best among the Fenton and Fenton-like reagents for the alum sludge conditioning. A considerable effectiveness of capillary suction time (CST) reduction efficiency of 47% can be achieved under test conditions of Fe^2+/H2O2 = 20/125 mg/g DS (dry solid) and pH 6.0. The observation of floc-like particles after Fenton's reagent conditioning of alum sludge suggested that the mechanism of Fenton's reagent conditioning was different from that of polymer conditioning. In spite of the lower efficiency in the CST reduction of Fenton's reagent in alum sludge conditioning compared to that of polymer conditioning, Fenton's reagent offers a more environmentally safe option. Tiffs study provided an example of proactive treatment engineering, which is aimed at seeking a safe alternative to the use of polymers in sludge conditioning towards achieving a more sustainable sludge management strategy.展开更多

On the basis of the catalyst characterization, the catalytic ability of the as-synthesized nanocomposites was examined. The results showed that Fe304-Mn02 core-shell nanocomposites had greater catalytic ability than Fe_3 O_4 or MnO_2 used alone. Meanwhile, the catalyst dosage, H_2 O_2 dosage, temperature, and initial pH had significant effects on the removal of acid orange 7. A high degree of stability and reusability were exhibited by Fe_3 O_4-MnO_2 core-shell nanocomposites. Both HO· and HO_2· were generated in the reaction and HO· was the main radical for the removal of acid orange 7. A mechanism for H_2 O_2 catalytic decomposition using Fe_3 O_4-MnO_2 core-shell nanocomposites to produce HO·is proposed.展开更多

Based on the data from XPS spectra and DMPO-OH·signal by EPR spectra,it is shown that the formation of ferryl (IV) is the key step for the oxidation of MG. The ferryl (IV) species can oxidize MG,and its redox potential is about 0. 739 - 0. 803 V measured by cyclic voltammograms (CV) . The catalytic capability of ferryl (IV) species was also evaluated,and it is found that it can promote the decomposition of H2O2 more efficiently than ferric iron. The removal rate of MG mainly depends on the adsorption of catalyst. Both ferryl (IV) and HO·radicals are the reactive species in the system. The oxidation of HO·is only a small part of the overall removal rate. Based on the obtained results,a possible mechanism for a resin-supported Fenton-like oxidation reaction is proposed.展开更多
