Abstract

Abstract This work demonstrated that bisphenol A (BPA) was rapidly degraded by peroxymonosulfate (PMS) in the presence of amorphous manganese dioxide (MnO2). Chemical quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) suggested that hydroxyl radical ( OH), sulfate radical (SO4 −), and singlet oxygen (1O2) were unlikely responsible for BPA oxidation. As such, a nonradical mechanism involving the formation of reactive complexes between amorphous MnO2 and PMS was tentatively proposed based on the PMS decomposition and Raman spectra. The presence of phosphate ions (H2PO4−) remarkably suppressed the degradation of BPA, while the addition of divalent metal ions (Ca2+, Mg2+, and Zn2+) appreciably enhanced BPA degradation. The discrepancy was likely resulted from their contrasting influences on the formation of reactive PMS-MnO2 complexes. Based on identified oxidation products (i.e., dimers, 4-hydroxycumyl alcohol, mono-hydroxylated BPA and its quinone derivative) by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry, the transformation pathways of BPA in amorphous MnO2/PMS system involving one-electron oxidation, radical coupling, bond cleavage, and hydroxylation were proposed. In addition to BPA, thirteen other selected phenolic compounds were also efficiently degraded by amorphous MnO2/PMS system, and good correlations between apparent pseudo-first-order reaction rate constants (kobs) and descriptor variables (i.e., Hammett constants σ+ and half-wave potentials E1/2) were obtained.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
