Enhancement of iron cycling in Fenton-like catalysis by MoO2-C: Carbon-mediated efficient electron transport
In this study, the charge transfer capability of MoO 2 materials was significantly improved by introducing carbon materials in situ. The resulting MoO 2 -C material could accelerate the Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycle and promote the continuous generation of reactive oxygen species in Fenton-like system. The results suggested that MoO 2 -C exhibited significant co-catalytic activity against a variety of pollutants. Meanwhile, the mechanisms behind the Fe(III)/Fe(II) cycle and reactive oxygen species generation were clarified. Analysis indicated that the incorporation of carbon material provided a reduction active site for the reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II) on the surface of molybdenum oxide, and also reduced the thermodynamic energy barrier associated with Fe(III) reduction. Furthermore, quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) technology demonstrated that hydroxyl radicals ( ∙ O H ) and singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) rapidly degrade the target pollutants. Fe(II) was verified as the primary component responsible for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and peroxydisulfate (PDS) activation. Additionally, the main generation pathway for 1 O 2 differed between the MoO 2 -C/Fe(III)/PDS and MoO 2 -C/Fe(III)/PMS systems. This study provides a new strategy to improve the iron reduction properties of metal oxide materials.
