Peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation has drawn increasing attention in eliminating the recalcitrant organic pollutants in water. Manipulation of generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) over Ce doped Mn 2 O 3 during the PMS activation was firstly reported for the complete degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) in this study. Ce in-situ introduction can greatly enhance the PMS activation performance of Mn 2 O 3 . For example, 100% of 2,4-DCP degradation can be obtained at 90 min over 4 wt% Ce doped Mn 2 O 3 at pH 7 (82.1% for Mn 2 O 3 at 90 min). The reaction rate constant ( k ) was also about 3.6 times higher than that of Mn 2 O 3 (0.0668 min −1 for Ce doped Mn 2 O 3 vs. 0.0186 min −1 for Mn 2 O 3 ). Besides 1 O 2 , OH and SO 4 − were identified and involved in 2,4-DCP degradation process over Ce doped Mn 2 O 3 , while only 1 O 2 was detected over 3D Mn 2 O 3 . Moreover, the contribution of OH and SO 4 − to 2,4-DCP degradation can be regulated by adjusting the Ce doping amount. The key role of Ce substitution in the regulation of reactive oxygen species was further investigated by XPS and electrochemical experiments. The Ce dopant can lead to a higher current density and greater reductive capability due to the improved charge transfer capability, which is important to the generation of more aggressive OH and SO 4 − and complete 2,4-DCP degradation.

A bifunctional catalyst with Ce-based metal–organic frameworks deposited on carbon encapsulated Fe 3 O 4 particles (Ce-MOFs/Fe 3 O 4 @C) was prepared for heterogeneous electro-Fenton (EF), which exhibited high H 2 O 2 generation efficiency (over 90% selectivity and 80.7% current efficiency), high sulfamethazine (SMT) removal with very low electric energy consumption (7.65 kWh kg −1 SMT), and wider pH suitability to alkaline environment (pH 9). The highest content of oxygen vacancies (O V ), Ce 3+ and Fe 2+ was simultaneously exhibited when the Fe/Ce ratio in precursor was 2:1. Interface-confined between Ce-MOFs and Fe 3 O 4 @C and presence of O V promoted the O 2 adsorption for oxygen reduction reaction and O 2 ∙- generation, and electron transfer between Fe and Ce. Meanwhile, the presence of Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ and Ce 3+ /Ce 4+ simultaneously facilitated the sequential catalysis induced by H 2 O 2 to generate ∙ OH, and Ce 4+ could promote O 2 ∙- to generate 1 O 2 . This work provides new insight into the design and synthesis of Fe-based catalysts in EF with interface confinement and multi-layered reaction centers to improve the generation and the decomposition of H 2 O 2 at the same time at a low cathode potential.

The discharge of industrial heavy metal wastewater not only leads to environmental pollution, but also harms human health, so it is imperative to control heavy metal pollution. In the current work, a sequence of anatase/brookite TiO 2 @COF with different mass ratios, bi-phase TiO 2 and bare COF were successfully synthesized by simple hydrothermal synthesis. The photocatalytic activity of the prepared catalysts was assessed by reducing Cr(Ⅵ) in model pollutant (K 2 Cr 2 O 7 ). Under the condition of pH = 3, the Cr(Ⅵ) reduction rate of TiO 2 @COF-4 was as high as 99.19% in 30 min. The photocatalytic activity of TiO 2 @COF-4 remained stable in four consecutive cycles, suggesting that it has a potential application prospect for the removal of Cr(Ⅵ) in the actual environment. The morphology and structure of photocatalysts were observed by different techniques (SEM/EDS, HRTEM, BET analysis, XRD, FTIR and XPS). The specific reasons for the enhancement of photocatalytic performance of materials were explored by different methods (PL, UV–vis DRS, Mott-Schottky plots, I-T curves and EIS). Finally, we concluded that the photocatalytic system of TiO 2 @COF-4 may follow the typical direct Z- scheme mechanism. This work provides an effective solution for the water treatment of heavy metal pollution.

This study investigated the functional properties and structural changes associated with the complexation of rice protein (RP) with anthocyanins (ACN). Furthermore, fractions (i.e., albumin, globulin, prolamin and glutelin) isolated from RP complexed with anthocyanins were examined. The interactions with ACN altered the structure of RP, leading to an increase in the β-sheet and spectral shift of the amide Ⅱ band. Additionally, fluorescence spectroscopy suggested that the hydrophobic and hydrogen bonds were the dominant forces in the formation of RP-ACN complexes. It was interesting to find that the RP-ACN particles exhibited the best functional properties at pH 3, likely due to the specific conformational changes upon interaction. In addition, the combination of RP and ACN increased the antioxidant ability of RP. Overall, this research suggested that RP-ACN particles at pH 3 can be designed to form and stabilize mesostructures such as foams and emulsion, which can lead to health benefits.
