The removal of gaseous hydrogen sulfide using FeOCl/H2O2 was studied. The effects of the FeOCl dosage, the H2O2 concentration, the reaction temperature, and the gas flow rate on the removal of H2S were investigated. The reaction products were analyzed, and the characterization of FeOCl was carried out by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Furthermore, radical quenching experiments were carried out using butylated hydroxytoluene, isopropanol, and benzoquinone. It was found that the H2S removal rate for a H2S gas concentration of 160 ppm reached 85.6% when bubbling through 100 mL of an aqueous solution containing FeOCl (1 g/L) and H2O2 (0.33 mol/L) at 293 K with a flow rate of 135 mL/min. Although the dissolution of chlorine in FeOCl was found to result in reduced catalytic performance, the activity was restored after soaking the catalyst in concentrated hydrochloric acid (37%) and subsequent calcination. The mechanism of H2S removal was also discussed, and it was found that this process was controlled by H2S diffusion. FeOCl was found to activate H2O2 and produce radicals, such as •OH and •O2–, resulting in the formation of a water film rich in radicals on the FeOCl surface. Following the diffusion of H2S into the water film, it underwent oxidation by radicals to produce SO42–. Overall, the catalyst and the product can be effectively separated.

Abstract FeOCl-MoS 2 was synthesized via calcination, which possessed excellent adsorption performance for methyl orange (MO). The characterization results showed that the FeOCl-MoS 2 was formed between MoS 2 and FeOCl phases, while a remarkable improvement in specific surface area and porosity was obtained in comparison with pure FeOCl and MoS 2 . The adsorption experiment results showed that the adsorption capacity of MO dye at 25 °C could reach 1615.11 mg/g. In addition, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R 2 > 0.99) has a good applicability to describe the adsorption of MO onto FeOCl-MoS 2 . Langmuir isotherm model (R 2 > 0.99) can describe the adsorption process well, proving that the adsorption is surface-controlled monolayer adsorption. Thermodynamic analyses showed the adsorption is an exothermic process and has spontaneity in nature. The adsorption of MO onto FeOCl-MoS 2 is attributed to electrostatic interaction. In particular, the adsorption capacity could still reach 82.1% of the initial adsorption capacity by alkali washing after five cycles. Hence, this study reveals that FeOCl-MoS 2 could be a high-efficient adsorbent for dyes removal from wastewaters. Graphical abstract

In recent years, the rapid development of industry has led to the discharge of large quantities of pollutants, including harmful dyes, into water sources, thereby posing potential threats to human health and the environment. FeOCl and biochar have their own shortcomings as a mediator in the heterogeneous Fenton process. To make both materials useful, FeOCl supported on bamboo biochar (FeOCl/BC) was prepared by calcination using FeCl3·6H2O and bamboo powder as raw materials, and the composite’s catalytic activities were explored with acid orange II (AO-II) as the target pollutant. The degradation efficiency of FeOCl/BC composites on AO-II was determined by testing the mass ratio of FeOCl and BC, initial pH, temperature, H2O2concentration, catalyst addition, addition of coexisting inorganic anions, and natural organic matter. The addition of biochar to FeOCl increased the activation of H2O2to generate •OH for the removal of AO-II and accelerated the cycle of Fe3+/Fe2+. The removal rate of AO-II by the Fe1C0.2composite was 97.1% when the mass ratio of FeOCl and BC was 1:0.2 (Fe1C0.2), which was higher than that of the pure components (FeOCl or BC) at pH = 6.1. Moreover, after five reuses, the Fe1C0.2composite still showed high degradation activity for AO-II, with 83.3% degradation and low activity loss. The capture experiments on the active material showed that the removal of AO-II by the Fe1C0.2composite was mainly dominated by •OH; however, •O2−andh+played minor roles. The synthesized Fe1C0.2composite could be applied for organic contaminants such as AO-II with high removal efficiency.

FeOCl was prepared by a partial thermal decomposition method to effectively catalyze hydrogen peroxide under the visible light for the degradation of toxic organic wastewater. The combination of DRS and VB-XPS indicated that FeOCl is a narrow band gap catalyst with visible light absorption capacity (Eg =1.63 eV). The degradation rate constant of RhB in FeOCl/H 2 O 2 /Vis system is about 13.4 times that of FeOCl/H 2 O 2 system. Compared to other heterogeneous Photo-Fenton systems, the oxidant utilization efficiency in FeOCl/H 2 O 2 /Vis system is higher. In addition, FeOCl has stable Photo-Fenton activity in a wide pH range (3.0–9.0). The content of Fe(II) increased after 5 cycles reaction through the ESR and XPS characterization, which proves that the electron transfer of Fe(III)/Fe(II) was improved during the reaction. After quantitative analysis of the ·OH generated in the reaction, the formation rate of ·OH in FeOCl/H 2 O 2 /Vis system is increased about 30% compared with FeOCl/H 2 O 2 /dark system. These results indicate that visible light excites FeOCl to generate produces photogenerated electron-hole pairs, accelerating the cycle of Fe(III)/Fe(II), promoting the production rate of ·OH, and enhancing the catalytic efficiency of FeOCl.

The synergistic effect of nanoparticles can effectively improve the tribological performances of base oils. In this study, a novel lubricant additive by embedding 2D FeOCl on 2D Zn − MOF was reported for the first time in order to boost the tribological performances of polyethylene glycol (PEG200). The FeOCl/Zn − MOF prepared by a facile microwave assisted strategy was found to be a typical flower-like appearance, where FeOCl nanosheets decorated on the surface of Zn − MOF sheets. Owing to the electron transfer and synergistic effect between FeOCl and Zn − MOF, the novel FeOCl/Zn − MOF effectively reduced the coefficient of friction by 48 % and wear scar diameter by 88 % at the loading of 0.4 wt% FeOCl/Zn − MOF in the base oil. The work suggests the face-to-face combination of FeOCl and Zn − MOF for enhanced tribological performances, representing a new strategy to prepare efficient lubricant additives using assembled 2D nanomaterials.

Fabricating heterostructures with abundant interfaces and delicate nanoarchitectures is an attractive approach for optimizing photocatalysts. Herein, we report the facile synthesis of BiOCl nanoflake/FeOCl nanospindle heterostructures through a solution chemistry method at room temperature. Characterizations, including XRD, SEM, TEM, EDS, and XPS, were employed to investigate the synthesized materials. The results demonstrate that the in situ reaction between the Bi precursors and the surface Cl−of FeOCl enabled the bounded nucleation and growth of BiOCl on the surface of FeOCl nanospindles. Stable interfacial structures were established between BiOCl nanoflakes and FeOCl nanospindles using Cl−as the bridge. Regulating the Bi-to-Fe ratios allowed for the optimization of the BiOCl/FeOCl interface, thereby facilitating the separation of photogenerated carriers and accelerating the photocatalytic degradation of RhB. The BiOCl/FeOCl heterostructures with an optimal composition of 15% BiOCl exhibited ~90 times higher visible-light photocatalytic activity than FeOCl. Based on an analysis of the band structures and reactive oxygen species, we propose an S-scheme mechanism to elucidate the significantly enhanced photocatalytic performance observed in the BiOCl/FeOCl heterostructures.

The combination of advanced oxidation (AOPs) and membrane separation technology provides a prospect for catalyst recovery and alleviation of membrane fouling . Herein, we prepared FeOCl/MoS 2 catalysts for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) by a simple partial thermal decomposition method. Then, the FeOCl/MoS 2 was immobilized onto a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane coated by polydopamine (PDA) through vacuum filtration. FeOCl/MoS 2 can remove 96.9% of rhodamine B (RhB) within 5 min. Notably, with a pH range from 3 to 9, FeOCl/MoS 2 exhibited high catalytic efficiency. Besides, the surface hydrophilicity of the PVDF membrane was significantly improved by the modification. The flux recovery rate (FRR) of the modified membrane reached 97.6%, which was 42.7% higher than that of the pristine membrane. With dead-end filtration, 72.2% of the pollutants can be removed. After 5 runs, the fabricated FeOCl/MoS 2 membrane displayed good stability and high efficiency. The analysis of the mechanism showed that adding MoS 2 to FeOCl can promote the reduction of Fe 3+ to Fe 2+ through the oxidation of Mo 4+ to Mo 6+ . The active species in this system were identified as SO 4 - •, •OH, O 2 - •, and 1 O 2 . SO 4 - • and 1 O 2 were dominant. This research provides a new strategy for the development and application of membrane separation technology.

Iron oxychloride (FeOCl) supported on mesoporous silica (SBA-15), as a Fenton-like solid catalyst for phenol degradation, showed supreme activity for production of hydroxyl radical (HO·) by H 2 O 2 decomposition, and the generation capacity was comparable to the conventional Fenton reagent (Fe 2+ +H 2 O 2 ). The structure of FeOCl was characterized with spectroscopies. The generation of HO· species during the reaction was detected using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide trapped electron paramagnetic resonance. Furthermore, the kinetics in detail was driven for the creation and diffusion of HO· by H 2 O 2 decomposition over FeOCl, which follows a first-order rate through a two-step reaction. With the combination of the catalyst structure and kinetic parameters, the plausible mechanism for H 2 O 2 decomposition during the oxidative degradation of phenol was rationalized. As a Fenton-like solid catalyst, FeOCl/SBA-15 is a promising alternative for the removal of low-level organic contaminates from water. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J , 61: 166–176, 2015

Homogeneous electro-Fenton (EF) technique is effective to mitigate membrane fouling through oxidizing organic foulants by hydroxyl radicals (HO·), but suffers from acid pH working environment (2.5 ∼ 3.5), low iron recyclability, and iron sludge accumulation. Herein, we developed a heterogeneous EF catalytic membrane to overcome these problems. A FeOCl@NCNT-functionalized ceramic membrane (FeOCl@NCNT/CM) was prepared to control the membrane fouling caused by humic acid (HA). At near neutral pH (∼ 6.0), the membrane enabled the in-situ generation of HO·. It also imparted an effective regeneration of Fe(II) through cathodic reduction and the electron transfer to Fe(III) from pyrrolic-N. The continuously generated HO· could oxidize the HA on/in the membrane, thus effectively mitigating membrane fouling. Electrostatic repulsion also contributed to fouling control by reducing the adhesion of negatively charged HA on the membrane. In continuous electrification mode, the FeOCl@NCNT/CM showed a superior antifouling ability. The water flux of the membrane at an applied voltage of −2.2 V was 1.79 times as high as that without voltage. Both reversible and irreversible membrane fouling were greatly reduced, and the transition of membrane fouling mechanism from pore blockage to cake filtration was significantly delayed. In intermittent electrification mode, the membrane exhibited an excellent self-cleaning performance. The fouled membrane showed considerable water flux recovery ratios (> 95%) after the EF cleaning at −2.2 V. The excellent antifouling and self-cleaning properties, low energy consumption, good stability and reusability of the FeOCl@NCNT/CM make it promising for the in-situ control of membrane fouling in water treatment.

Highly efficient oxidation , as non-thermal regeneration technology , is a promising method to solve the regeneration problem of spent activated carbon (AC) in wastewater treatment . In this study, FeOCl was confined into activated carbon (FeOCl/AC) for catalytic oxidation of contaminants on AC during the regeneration process. The characterization results of FeOCl/AC showed that amorphous FeOCl was distributed in micropores, mesopores and macropores of AC. The methylene blue (MB)-adsorbed FeOCl/AC had a regeneration efficiency of 93.7 % at neutral pH in the presence of H 2 O 2 , much higher than 46.9 % by Fenton oxidation and 33.7 % by H 2 O 2 oxidation. Meanwhile, the spent FeOCl/AC after the adsorption of atrazine, 2,4-dichlorophenol, and ofloxacin had the regeneration efficiencies of 71.5 %, 86.4 %, and 100 %, respectively. Moreover, the regeneration efficiency still reached 87 % in the fifth adsorption-regeneration cycle, and was linearly decreased with the increase of adsorbed amounts of MB. During 6 h regeneration of spent FeOCl/AC, 97 % of adsorbed MB was degraded. Electron paramagnetic resonance and radical trapping experiments indicated that both superoxide and hydroxyl radicals were involved in MB oxidation during the regeneration process.

The traditional Electro-Fenton (EF) is an efficient technology for wastewater treatment but suffers from the acidic condition requirement and external catalyst addition. To overcome these challenges, a GF@MoS 2 @FeOCl cathode was fabricated using a facile method. The as-prepared GF@MoS 2 @FeOCl cathode showed excellent performance for ciprofloxacin (CIP) degradation in EF process with RuO 2 /Ti electrode as the anode. H 2 O 2 was electro-generated and activated on-site at the cathode at mild pH without adding Fe 2+ . CIP was 100% removed with 74.4% of mineralization in 90 min at pH 6. The GF@MoS 2 @FeOCl cathode exhibited good reusability after consecutive runs of degradation. The degradation intermediates were investigated, and the possible mechanism was proposed. This work demonstrated that the prepared GF@MoS 2 @FeOCl cathode is a promising candidate for contaminants treatment in an EF system.

Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) based on the Fenton reaction is a promising strategy for nonlight cancer treatment. However, the traditional Fenton reaction is only efficient in strongly acidic conditions (pH = 2–4), resulting in the limited curative effect in a weakly acidic tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, we first developed a simple in situ growth method to confine FeOCl nanosheets into hollow dendritic mesoporous organosilicon (H-DMOS) nanoparticles to obtain FeOCl@H-DMOS nanospheres. Ascorbic acid (AA) was then absorbed on the nanosystem as a H2O2 prodrug and, meanwhile, was used for the regeneration of Fentons reagent for Fe2+. Finally, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) was coated on FeOCl@H-DMOS-AA to enhance the permeability and retention (EPR) effect in tumor tissue. The as-fabricated FeOCl@H-DMOS-AA/PEG can generate a large amount of highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) by catalyzing H2O2 even in neutral pH conditions with the help of AA. As a result, the effect of CDT has been markedly enhanced by the increased amount of H2O2 and the efficient Fenton reaction in mild acidic TME, which can remove almost all of the tumors in mice. In addition, FeOCl also endows the nanosystem with T2-weighted MR imaging capability (r2 = 34.08 mM–1 s–1), thus realizing the imaging-guided cancer therapy. All in all, our study may contribute a new direction and may have a bright future for enhanced CDT with a neutral pH range.
