A yolk–shell-structured sphere composed of a superparamagnetic Fe 3 O 4 core and a carbon shell (Fe 3 O 4 @HCS) was etched from Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @carbon by NaOH, which was synthesized through the layer-by-layer coating of Fe 3 O 4 . This yolk–shell composite has a shell thickness of ca. 27 nm and a high specific surface area of 213.2 m 2 g −1 . Its performance for the magnetic removal of tetracycline hydrochloride from water was systematically examined. A high equilibrium adsorption capacity of ca. 49.0 mg g −1 was determined. Moreover, the adsorbent can be regenerated within 10 min through a photo-Fenton reaction. A stable adsorption capacity of 44.3 mg g −1 with a fluctuation <10% is preserved after 5 consecutive adsorption–degradation cycles, demonstrating its promising application potential in the decontamination of sewage water polluted by antibiotics.

The Fenton/Fenton-like reaction is of significant importance in biomedical and environmental remediation applications. However, the use of Fenton/Fenton-like catalysts is limited due to incomplete light absorption, low energy conversion efficiency, and a narrow pH range. To address these issues, we have developed a photothermal-driven heterogeneous Fenton system using Cu 2 O-SnO 2 -Polydopamine (PDA) triple cubic heterostructures , which exhibit strong photothermal capabilities in the NIR region. The macromolecular PDA acts as a heat source for higher degradation efficiency due to its excellent photothermal conversion performance. Furthermore, our results show that the system significantly improves the energy conversion efficiency of Cu 2 O and exhibits excellent catalytic activity over a wide pH range by using Rhodamine B (RhB) as the model dye. This study offers a novel approach for environmental remediation through the synergistic effect of photocatalysis and photothermal processes.

Photocatalysis and photo-Fenton oxidation are promising advanced oxidation technologies for water treatment. Nevertheless, their relatively slow kinetics largely limited their practical applications. Herein, we performed synergistic photocatalysis and photo-Fenton reactions in water microdroplets for the degradation of organic dyes. The efficiency of the microdroplet-based photoreactions was significantly improved with a degradation rate of 98.96% in microdroplets, while it was only 38.14% in the bulk solution. The enhanced degradation efficiency was due to the synergistic effect of the photocatalysis and photo-Fenton reactions in the microdroplets. First, the enrichment of both the dye (rhodamine B) and the catalyst (g-C3N4 nanosheets) at the aqueous interfaces enlarged the local surface concentration, playing a role in the reaction acceleration. Second, the spontaneously generated hydrogen peroxide (17.13 μM) at the aqueous interfaces triggered the photo-Fenton cycle and thus largely promoted the charge separation of g-C3N4 as well as the effective utilization of the photogenerated electrons and holes, leading to a significantly improved degradation efficiency of organic dyes. Further, we quantified the reaction kinetics of individual microdroplets in a real-time manner. The reaction constant in 10 μm microdroplets was 4.86 × 10–3 s–1, which was 22 times higher than that in the bulk phase (0.22 × 10–3 s–1). This study provided a better understanding of accelerated photoreactions at aqueous interfaces and a strategy for addressing the low efficiency of organic dye degradation.

In the photo-Fenton reactions, fast recombination of photoinduced electrons and holes in Fe-based metal–organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) slows Fe(III)/Fe(II) cycle, which remains big challenge that significantly retards the overall process. Herein, NH 2 -MIL-88B(Fe) (NM88) was modified with 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid (DB) and TPB-DMTP-COF (COF-OMe) to in situ construct NM88(DB) 0.85 /COF-OMe composite that could strongly harvest the visible light for photo-Fenton degradation of sulfamerazine (SMR). With the addition of DB, electron-donating effect of NM88 was strengthened, which then promoted amino groups to react with aldehyde groups (Schiff-base), and thus highly facilitated the interfacial contact between NM88 and COF-OMe. Such modifications increased the degradation rate constants for NM88(DB) 0.85 /COF-OMe to 15.1 and 17.3 times that of NM88 and COF-OMe respectively with good reusability. Moreover, the catalyst exhibited 32–170 times higher degradation kinetics in comparison to other reported catalysts. Results showed that due to the Schiff-base reaction between NM88(DB) and COF-OMe, electron density on Fe(III) was decreased; and the photogenerated electrons of COF-OMe moved to NM88(DB) to reduce Fe(III), thus resulting in the generation of highly active Fe(II) and ·OH species. Furthermore, the main reactive species were determined to be ·OH and ·O 2 – by trapping experiments, and a possible mechanism of the degradation system followed Z-scheme charge transfer.

Membrane filtration technology demonstrates excellent continuous processing capability in organic wastewater treated processes, which is usually applied in continuous industrial processes. However, it still faces a contradiction between membrane flux and treatment efficiency. In this study, a flexible wood-based photocatalytic membrane with high membrane flux and exceptional photofenton performance was developed via partial fragment wood components and uniform loading of multi-metal oxide nanocatalysts, which breaks mentioned contradiction. The homogeneous and efficient wood-based dual-function water filtration/photofenton system was established by leveraging the directional porous structure of wood in conjunction with the nanocatalysts while adjusting their ratios, enabling effective purification of highly concentrated mixed organic wastewater. Under one solar intensity and negative pressure filtration (0.03 MPa), the system treated a mixed solution containing Rhodamine B, phenol , and tetracycline at a concentration of 280 mg L −1 with the removal efficiencies of 100 %, 93.4 %, and 90.2 %, respectively, and the membrane flux could up to 315.3 Lm −2 h −1 within one hour. The membrane showed a good recycling performance, and the decay rates were all below 5 % after five cycles. This wood-based dual-function water filtration/photo-Fenton system provides a new approach for the continuous dynamic treatment of high-concentration organic wastewater on an industrial scale.

A SiO2-supported Fe and Ni bimetallic catalyst has been synthesized, characterized and, for the first time, tested as a heterogeneous photo-Fenton catalyst for the degradation and mineralization of methylene blue (MB) dye. The morphological, structural, and optical properties of this catalyst were analyzed using FESEM, XRD, FTIR and UV–vis spectroscopy. The photocatalytic degradation of MB has been investigated using Fe–Ni/SiO2 catalysts under visible and solar light irradiation in aqueous solutions. The effects of solution pH, H2O2 concentration, initial MB concentration, catalyst dosage and light intensity on the degradation of MB have been systematically investigated. An almost complete degradation was achieved within 60 min with a solution pH of 3.00, a H2O2 concentration of 3.0 mM L−1 and a catalyst dose of 0.85 g L−1. The degradation and total organic carbon (TOC) removal efficiencies were 99.80% and 86.19%, respectively, for sunlight. However, the values were only 99.01% and 75.71% for visible light. These results suggested that Fe–Ni/SiO2 possesses significant catalytic activity, and the solar-Fenton process is a feasible method for degrading and mineralizing the MB dye compared with artificial visible light. The catalytic action is attributed to H2O2 and the formation of hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) by Fe(III) in Fe–Ni/SiO2via the photo-Fenton reactions. Furthermore, we determined that the catalyst activity can be replicated in successive experiments without a significant decline in the Fe–Ni/SiO2 and H2O2 processing efficiency under light irradiation. Our results will be useful for future improvement of active heterogeneous photo-Fenton catalysts for developing organic dye-containing wastewater treatments.

The utilization of two-dimensional (2D) materials to construct heterogeneous catalysts provides opportunities for environmental remediation, while the incorporation of porous structures can further enhance catalytic performance. In this work, a porous 2D FeOOH/fluorine-cerium (F-Ce) nanosheet composite was designed and synthesized by a simple impregnation-precipitation method. The unique 2D porous structure of F-Ce promoted the high dispersion of FeOOH quantum dots (QDs) (∼1.4 nm) and their tight integration to form S-scheme heterojunctions. This structure offered a greater number of active sites, and significantly improved the capacity of light absorption and the separation and migration efficiency of photogenerated carriers, thus improving catalytic activity. This catalyst achieved a phenol removal rate of 98.1 % within 20 min during the photo-Fenton reaction, which significantly surpasses pure FeOOH (32.9 %) and F-Ce (21.7 %) alone. In particular, the optimized 14FeOOH/F-Ce catalyst achieved more than 95.0 % degradation efficiency within a remarkably short period of 5 min. Mott Schottky and in situ irradiated X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (ISI-XPS) studies demonstrated that the S-scheme charge transfer mechanism of this heterojunction synergistically enhanced the catalytic activity of the Fenton-like reaction. This study provides valuable insights for designing efficient 2D porous heterojunction catalysts for visible-light-driven Fenton applications.

Photo-Fenton membranes exhibit exceptional self-cleaning and anti-fouling performances, making them promising for oil/water separation applications. However, the practical use of photo-Fenton catalytic reaction is limited as it requires an acidic environment. In this study, a polyethersulfone (PES)/Fe 3 S 4 @Al 2 O 3 membrane was fabricated using nonsolvent-induced phase separation. This resulted in a photo-Fenton separation membrane with a broad pH range applicability, leveraging the high catalytic activity of Fe 3 S 4 and the unique Lewis acid properties of Al 2 O 3 . The findings indicate that the optimized membranes can achieve a separation efficiency of over 99.3 % for various oil/water emulsions. The membrane demonstrates exceptional self-cleaning performance and stability, maintaining a separation efficiency of over 99 % even after 10 cycles of oil/water emulsion separation. Additionally, the membrane exhibited a catalytic degradation efficiency of 100 % for MB, RhB and MO under visible light in pH range of 2–12. The high separation efficiency, stability, self-cleaning performance, and wide pH range of these membranes make them promising candidates for long-term oily wastewater purification.

Novel hybrid nanostructures or nanocomposites are receiving increasing attention due to their newly evolved properties. In this work, α-Fe 2 O 3 anchored to graphene oxide (GO) nanosheet (α-Fe 2 O 3 @GO) was synthesized through a facile hydrolysis process and its photo-catalytic performances and durability in heterogeneous Fenton system were fully evaluated. The decolorization rates of methylene blue in α-Fe 2 O 3 @GO + H 2 O 2 + UV system within a wide pH range were approximately 2.9-fold that of classical Degussa P25 TiO 2 + UV and 2.4-fold that of α-Fe 2 O 3 + H 2 O 2 + UV. This enhanced decolorization of methylene blue (MB) in α-Fe 2 O 3 @GO + H 2 O 2 + UV system were attributed to the unique incorporation of GO into the catalyst which not only mediated the morphology of active sites α-Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles but also offered high electron conductivity and electrostatic attraction between negatively charged GO with positively charged MB. High efficiencies of degradation were achieved on various surface charged organic pollutants (around 96–100%), such as cationic compounds of MB and rhodamine B (RhB), anionic compound Orange II (OII) and Orange G (OG), neutral compounds of phenol , 2-nitrophenol (2-NP) and endocrine disrupting compound 17β-estradiol (E2). The dominant reactive oxygen species (ROS) responsible for decolorization, such as hydroxyl radicals ( OH) and superoxide anion radicals (O 2 − ) generated by activation of H 2 O 2 on the surface of α-Fe 2 O 3 @GO were detected and quantified by free radical quenching methods. The possible degradation mechanism of MB involved the rupture of phenothiazine ring by desulfurization and the rupture of phenyl ring due to the attack of ROS, which was analyzed by LC/MS/MS. The reduction of MB and its intermediates was consistent with the decreasing trend of the acute toxicity towards luminous bacteria with the increasing irradiation time. The results lay a foundation for highly effective and durable photo-Fenton technologies for organic wastewater within wider pH ranges than the conventional photo-Fenton reaction.

A novel self-assembly method was developed to prepare a γ-Fe 2 O 3 /graphene oxide (GO) heterogeneous catalyst that showed excellent synergy between photocatalysis and Fenton-like reactions. The γ-Fe 2 O 3 /GO catalyst prepared on the iron plates demonstrated efficient and reproducible catalytic activities for water treatment . It takes only 80 min to degrade 50 mg L −1 methylene (MB) completely, which is the main non-biodegradable dye in wastewater from the textile industry . The heterogeneous catalyst is stable over a wide range of pH (from 2.0 to 10.2) for MB degradation, and can be easily extracted from solution and repeatedly used with little loss of catalytic activity. The high activity and stability of the catalyst system can be attributed to charge separation between γ-Fe 2 O 3 and GO, which could accelerate Fenton-like process and photocatalysis. In addition, the dominant reactive oxidant species responsible for the MB degradation, including the hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and holes (h + ), were trapped on the surface of the γ-Fe 2 O 3 /GO composite, as proved by a free-radical quenching experiment. The γ-Fe 2 O 3 /GO heterogeneous catalyst could potentially provide a solution for removal of non-biodegradable dyes from wastewater in the textile industry.

In recent years, design high catalytic graphitic carbon nitride (g–C 3 N 4 )–based catalysts has drawn broad attention in environmental remediation. In this work, a series of iron-doped g-C 3 N 4 compounds were synthesized through a simple bottom-up strategy. By controlled pyrolysis , iron-doped g-C 3 N 4 materials split from bulk structure into multi-layer structure with uniformly dispersed mesopores. The catalytic activities of layered iron-doped g-C 3 N 4 in Fenton-like and photo-Fenton-like processes were investigated. Due to the doped iron, unique layered structure, and mesopore feature, the catalysts present greatly enhanced performance in heterogeneous Fenton-like reactions. Moreover, the degradation parameters calculated by the pseudo-first-order kinetic model fitted well with the specific surface area of the catalyst, indicating that the catalytic activities rely heavily on the specific surface area of layered and porous g-C 3 N 4 . This study presents a facile and generic method to regulate C 3 N 4 morphology and structure for enhanced catalytic activity in Fenton-like reactions.

Photo-Fenton reaction has received increasing attention in removing antibiotics in water. Herein, Fe 2 O 3 -on-ZrO 2 polypods were designed and synthesized via metal organic frameworks (MOFs) derivation strategy combined with reflux heating and baking. The experimental results showed that under Ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) light irradiation, more than 95 % tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCl) was degraded by Fe 2 O 3 -on-ZrO 2 with Fe/Zr mole ratio of 1.3 in 25 min within full pH range. Mainly due to the following points, there were abundant Fe 2 O 3 -on-ZrO 2 heterojunctions, which conduced to transfer photo-induced electrons (e − ) from ZrO 2 to Fe 2 O 3 , thus accelerating the iron cycle. Besides, OH – adsorbed was oxidized to hydroxyl radicals (·OH) by holes (h + ) in the valence band (VB) of ZrO 2 , and ZrO 2 also enhanced the stability of the catalyst and reduced the leaching of iron ions. Finally, the reasonable degradation pathway and degradation mechanism were speculated by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS), electron spin resonance technology (ESR), scanning Kelvin probe (SKP), the conduction band (CB) and VB positions of Fe 2 O 3 -on-ZrO 2 , etc. This work exhibited a new structure and degradation mechanism, which would further encourage researchers to study the rational regulation of materials with special morphology and structure.
