Photocatalytic Oxidation of Arsenite in TiO2 Suspension: Kinetics and Mechanisms
Abstract
Arsenite [As(III)] and arsenate [As(V)] are highly toxic aquatic contaminants. Since arsenite is more mobile in natural waters and less efficiently removed in adsorption/coagulation processes than arsenate, the oxidation of arsenite to arsenate is desirable in water treatment. We performed the photocatalytic oxidation of arsenite in aqueous TiO2 suspension and investigated the effects of pH, dissolved oxygen, humic acid (HA), and ferric ions on the kinetics and mechanisms of arsenite oxidation. Arsenite oxidation in UV-illuminated TiO2 suspension was highly efficient in the presence of dissolved oxygen. Homogeneous photooxidation of arsenite in the absence of TiO2 was negligibly slow. Since the addition of excess tert-butyl alcohol (OH radical scavenger) did not reduce the rate of arsenite oxidation, the OH radicals should not be responsible for As(III) oxidation. The addition of HA increased both arsenite oxidation and H2O2 production at pH 3 under illumination, which could be ascribed to the enhanced superoxide generation through sensitization. We propose that the superoxide is the main oxidant of arsenite in the TiO2/UV process. The addition of ferric ions also significantly enhanced the arsenite photooxidation. In this case, the addition of tert-butyl alcohol reduced the arsenite oxidation rate, which implied thatthe OH radical-mediated oxidation path was operative in the presence of ferric ions. Since both Fe3+ and HA that were often found with the arsenic in groundwater were beneficial to the photocatalytic oxidation of arsenite, the TiO2/UV process could be a viable pretreatment method. This can be as simple as exposing the arsenic-polluted water in a TiO2-coated trough to sunlight.

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.
