Abstract

Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic and was largely used in breeding industry. The reaction rate of SMX with KMnO 4 is slow, and the adsorption efficiency of biochar for SMX was inferior (less than 11% in 30 min). By adding biochar powder into SMX solution with the addition of permanganate, the oxidation ratio of SMX surged to 97% in 30 min, and over 58% of the total organic carbon (TOC) was simultaneously removed. KMnO 4 interacted with biochar and resulted in the formation of highly oxidative intermediate manganese species, which transformed SMX into hydrolysis products, oxygen-transfer products, and self-coupling products. Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis showed that surface area, total pore volume, and micropore volume of biochar increased by 32.1%, 36.4%, and 80.6%, respectively, after reaction process. This in situ activation of biochar with KMnO 4 enhanced its adsorption capacity and led to great improvement of TOC removal. Besides KMnO 4 oxidation, biochar also enhanced TOC removal in Mn(III) oxidation (KMnO 4 + bisulfite) and ozonization of SMX. Considering that KMnO 4 could react with biochar and result in the formation of intermediate manganese species, while biochar can be simultaneously activated and exhibit high capacity for organic adsorption, the combination of biochar with the chemical/advanced oxidation could be a promising process for the removal of environmental pollutants.

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.
