Abstract

Abstract Activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to degrade recalcitrant organic pollutants has attracted much attention, however, this process usually needs expensive or toxic catalysts. Herein, we prepared a Fe functionalized biochar composite that contain Fe0, porous carbon with abundant functional groups and nanofibers (Fe-BC-700) to activate PMS and efficiently remove bisphenol A (BPA). The contribution of different participants in the complicated system involving Fe species, carbon composites, and radicals and nonradicals were quantitatively investigated. Under optimal conditions (0.2 g/L PMS and 0.15 g/L catalyst), 20 mg/L of BPA can be completely removed in 5 min by Fe-BC-700. The effects including the activation of PMS by Fe species to produce sulfate radicals (SO4 −), the electron transfer by the nanofiber-mesoporous carbon structure, and the inherent persistent free radicals (PFR) in biochar, were demonstrated to contribute to the high performance. A series of contrast experiments showed that PMS activated by Fe contributed to about 36% of BPA degradation, while the carbon composites, especially carbon nanofibers contributed to 17%, and the other 47% was ascribed to the adsorption of carbon composites (may further undergoing degradation). Meanwhile, the degradation by SO4 − accounted for about 23% (by quenching experiments), while the nonradical pathway contributed to 30%. This work suggests that the non-activation factors in PMS/porous catalyst/pollutant system cannot be neglected.

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.
