Degradation and transformation of bisphenol A in UV/Sodium percarbonate: Dual role of carbonate radical anion
Abstract
The bicarbonate and carbonate ions (HCO3- &CO32-) will consume hydroxyl radical (HO•) to generate carbonate radical anion (CO3•-) in hydroxyl radical based advanced oxidation processes (HO•-AOPs) resulting in reduced oxidation efficiencies of the systems. However, despite the HO• quenching effect of carbonate species, the contribution of CO3•- to the degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) was observed in UV/sodium percarbonate (UV/SPC). In order to study the performance of UV/SPC for BPA degradation and the role of CO3•- in this process, the degradation kinetics and mechanisms of BPA in UV/SPC and in UV/hydrogen peroxide (UV/H2O2) were compared at equivalent concentration of H2O2. In this study, the observed degradation rates of BPA by UV/SPC and by UV/H2O2 in Milli-Q water were similar. Variation of the BPA degradation rates in the presence of radical quenchers, tert-butanol and phenol, suggested that both CO3•- and HO• contributed to the degradation of BPA in UV/SPC. Second order rate constant of CO3•- towards BPA ( [Formula: see text] = 2.23 × 108 M-1 s-1) and steady state concentrations of CO3•- ( [Formula: see text] = 2.3 × 10-12 M) and HO• ( [Formula: see text] = 1.82 × 10-14 M) in UV/SPC were determined with competition kinetics at 1 mM SPC and pH 8.5. The high [Formula: see text] observed in UV/SPC compensated for the smaller [Formula: see text] compared to [Formula: see text] and the consumption of HO• making the degradation rate of BPA in UV/SPC comparable to that in UV/H2O2. Detailed studies on identification of transformation products (TPs) of BPA in UV/SPC revealed that phenol ring and isopropylidene bridge were the main reactive sites of BPA. Degradation pathways were proposed accordingly. The results of kinetic and mechanistic studies provide better fundamental understanding of the degradation of BPA in UV/SPC and HCO3-&CO32- impact on BPA degradation by HO•-AOPs. This also demonstrates potential for CO3•- based water purification technologies.

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.
