Spinel structured Co x Mn 3-x O 4 nanoparticles embedded carbon composites (Co x Mn 3-x O 4 -C) were rationally designed and prepared using Co/Mn bimetallic metal organic frameworks (MOFs) as the template. The Co x Mn 3-x O 4 -C represented prominent bisphenol A (BPA) degradation capability by activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS), in which Co 1.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 -C exhibited the highest BPA degradation efficiency. Specifically, Co 1.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 -C (0.1 g/L) could completely degrade 0.1 mM of BPA within 3 min, which was better than many previous reported catalysts. Moreover, the Co 2+ leaching was limited in the Co 1.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 -C/PMS system. It was revealed that hydroxyl radical (•OH) and singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) were the main active species in the reaction system, which dominated a dual pathway mechanism for BPA degradation. Furthermore, the Co 1.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 -C could maintain its performance in a variety of water matrices with promising recyclability. This study encourages the rational design and preparation of high-efficient catalysts by employing tunable MOFs precursors for refractory organic pollutant degradation.

T2, a gram-positive bacterium capable of rapidly degrading tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), and affiliated with the genus Enterobacter , was isolated for the first time from sludge that had been contaminated for several years. The TBBPA degradation data fitted the first-order model well. Under optimal conditions (pH of 7, temperature of 31 °C, TBBPA concentration of 5 mg L −1 , and inoculum size of 5%), 99.4% of the initially added TBBPA was degraded after 48 h. TBBPA degradation fitted the first-order model with the half-life of 3.3 h. These results illustrated that the TBBPA degradation capability of strain T2 was significantly better than that of previously reported bacteria. A total of 17 intermediates were detected, among which five were reported for the first time. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that strain T2 had a chromosome with the total length of 4 854 376 bp and a plasmid with the total length of 21 444 bp. It harbored essential genes responsible for debromination, such as cyp450 , gstB , gstA , and HADH, and genes responsible for subsequent complete mineralization , such as bioC , yrrM , Tam , and Ubil . A key protein of haloacid dehalogenases responsible for the biodegradation of TBBPA may also be involved in the regulation of TBBPA degradation in natural environment. In soil bioremediation experiments, strain T2 showed excellent environmental adaptation. It was able to biodegrade TBBPA and its typical intermediate bisphenol A efficiently. Therefore, it could potentially be applied to treat TBBPA-contaminated sites.

Here we present a facile, rapid and reliable electrochemical sensor for quantitative analysis of hazardous photographic developing agents, including metol (MT), hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CC). They have been identified as usual contaminants in environment and water samples. This sensor is based on a nanocomposite of three-dimensional (3D) porous flower-like Co 3 O 4 @C hybrid and graphene nanoplates (Co 3 O 4 @C/GNP). The Co 3 O 4 @C/GNP compoiste is prepared by a two-steps procedure, consisting of the composite synthesis of a Co-MOF precursor and GNPs in the first step and subsequently direct calcination process in the N 2 atmosphere. The morphology, composition, and electrochemical behavior of the Co 3 O 4 @C/GNP composite is characterized by using microscopic methods and electrochemical techniques, revealing its 3D porous structure, abundant pores, a large electrode active area, a high conductivity, outstanding electrocatalytic and sensing performance toward MT, HQ, and CC. Taking advantages of a huge electroactive surface area and a fast electron transfer rate of GNPs and strong electrical catalytic ability of the Co 3 O 4 @C hybrid, the fabricated Co 3 O 4 @C/GNP sensor displays high sensitivity for quantitative analysis of MT, HQ and CC. Their detection limits are as low as 5.1, 14.7 and 169 nM (S/ N = 3), respectively. Beyond that, the proposed Co 3 O 4 @C/GNP electrochemical sensor shows strong reproducibility, good stability and selectivity in the voltammetric quantitation of these analytes. It has been also successfully applied in measuring these photographic developing agents in water environment. Consequently, the fabricated Co 3 O 4 @C/GNP composite is expected to be an excellent electrode material in the applications of electrochemical sensing.

Boosting nonradical ( 1 O 2 , e − and h + ) process to enhance the selective degradation for electrophilicity contaminants is an ingenious strategy. Herein, BiOI/BiOCl heterojunction with rational interface oxygen vacancies (IOVs) concentration was successfully synthesized by ultrasonic method. Moreover, multi-characterization and interference experimental unveiled that the appropriate IOVs concentration can not only effectively reduce the transport resistance of photo-induced carriers but also boost the nonradical process. Thus, BOC-5 can remove 84% (20 mg/L) tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCl) in 1 h and present wonderful insecticidal performance for rotifers. Simultaneously, the quantitative methods of IOVs concentration, the contribution of the active species to the catalytic performance and the contribution of different 1 O 2 source to the total 1 O 2 were established for the first time. Furthermore, the structure–activity relationship between the IOVs concentration and the catalytic properties was firstly constructed. This work provides an inventive idea to purify water pollutants and disinfestation by boost nonradical process via interface defect engineering.

Bi 2+x WO 6 are a group of reactive photocatalysts in the photooxidation of various contaminants. However, their catalytic reactivity in the persulfate (PS)-based oxidation processes in the absence of light is still unknown. In this study, Bi 2.15 WO 6 shows a high reactivity in the catalytic oxidation of bisphenol A (BPA) by PS in the absence of light under alkaline conditions, and 20 mg L -1 BPA can be rapidly removed within 30 min at pH 10.0 with the low stoichiometry ratio of 1.79 between consumed PS and removed BPA. Characterizations of the oxidation products indicate that 98.4% of soluble BPA has been oxidatively polymerized to BPA polymers, instead of being oxidized to CO 2 and H 2 O. FTIR, Raman, XPS and electrochemical analyses confirm that surface Bi(III) is the reactive site for the adsorption of BPA and PS, which then initiates reactions between BPA and PS. DFT calculations reveal that the O-O bond in PS is moderately activated via the nonradical pathway after adsorbing on Bi(III), instead of being decomposed to SO 4 •− , followed by H-abstraction from BPA by the activated PS with the formation of phenoxyl radicals and the subsequent polymerization to BPA polymers. The apparently lower energy barrier from adsorbed BPA (Δ G = 0.056 eV) than that from dissolved BPA (Δ G = 0.263 eV) further reveals that H-abstraction from adsorbed BPA to the activated PS on the surface of Bi 2.15 WO 6 is more favorable than that from dissolved BPA. This study gives new insight on the efficient removal of recalcitrant contaminants via the H-abstraction pathway.

Anion chemistry of sulfonates plays a crucial role in dictating the electrochemical performance of composite solid polymer electrolytes (CSPEs), hence affecting the cyclability of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The CSPEs received great attention for LIBs, however, simultaneously achieving high ionic conductivity and long cycle life in realistic batteries is still a great challenge. Herein, we report new sulfonate anion with hydrophilic aromatic structure and ether alkyl spacer of hydroxyl wing namely lithium hydroxyphenyl propanesulfonate (LHPS), and a series of CSPEs obtained by coupling of the synthesized anions via tetraethyl orthosilicate to be used in LIBs. The CSPEs comprising LHPS achieve higher ionic conductivity and excellent cyclability with impressive stability due to their decent compatibility of hydroxyl wing, and aliphatic ether spacer with the polymeric matrix. The intramolecular and intermolecular interactions of LHPS with other precursors within anion-polymer matrices via hydrogen bonding reduce anionic species migration, thus augmenting Li + ion conduction and impeding lithium dendritic growth during the electrochemical performance. This opens a new avenue for designing conductive and long cycle life CSPEs for LIBs in the future.

Permanganate (Mn(VII)) is widely used as a mild oxidant in water treatment. However, the reaction rates of some emerging contaminants with Mn(VII) are extremely low. In this study, benzoquinone (BQ), a redox mediator with the important component in dissolved organic matter (DOM), enhanced the oxidation of bisphenol A (BPA) by Mn(VII) in a wide pH range of 4.0-10.0. The redox cycle of BQ would produce semiquinone radicals, which could act as ligands to stabilize the formed Mn(III) in the system to promote the oxidation of BPA. Notably, the presence of BQ might promote the formation of MnO 2 . A novel mechanism was proposed that singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ), Mn(III)-ligands (Mn(III)-L) and in-situ formed MnO 2 were the main contributors to accelerate BPA degradation in the Mn(VII)/BQ system. Under acidic conditions, the in-situ formed MnO 2 involved in the redox reaction and part of the Mn(IV) was reduced to Mn(III), indicating that the electron transfer of BQ promoted the formation of active Mn species and enhanced the Mn(VII) oxidation performance. Semiquinone radicals generated by BQ transformation would couple with the hydrogen substitution products of BPA to inhibit BPA self-coupling and promote the ring-opening reactions of BPA. Mn(VII)/BQ had better effect in raw water than in pure water, indicating that the Mn(VII)/BQ system has high potential for practical application. This study provided insights into the role of DOM in enhancing the Mn(VII) oxidation in water treatment.

Nanoplastics (NPs) are widely found in the environment and can act as a vector for various toxic substances and promote their diffusion and bioenrichment, but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, the adsorption characteristics of bisphenol A (BPA) onto NPs were explored. The results show that the adsorption of BPA on NPs was dominated by saturated single-layer adsorption and affected by both intra-particle diffusion and liquid film diffusion. Electrostatic interaction, π–π interaction, and hydrophobic effects played key roles in adsorption. In addition, the introduction of electrolytes inhibited the adsorption of BPA onto NPs. Interestingly, the introduction of suspended sediment promoted the formation of heterogeneous aggregates of NPs-SS, thereby reducing the adsorption capacity, indicating that aggregation may play an important role in the adsorption behavior of NPs. Overall, our results provide new insights into the adsorption behavior of BPA on NPs and the underlying mechanisms under different environmental conditions.

Present work depicted a novel electrochemical sensor fabricated with magnetic carbon dots (M-CDs) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for selective measurement of 3,3′,5,5′-tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) in beverages. The M-CDs composite material revealed good electrocatalytic activity, and CTAB has strong hydrophobic interaction which enable it have good enrichment capacity of hydrophobic compounds, and combination of them further enhances the electrochemical signal. Hence CTAB decoration can markedly improve the detection performance of TBBPA. Electrochemical properties of the fabricated sensor was investigated through performing cyclic voltammetry (CV). The morphology and functional groups of the modified materials were examined with transmission electron microscope (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The results indicated that the synthesized material had a spherical-like structure, good dispersion properties and plenty of functional groups on the surface. The effects of incubation potential, incubation time, pH of electrolyte, and scanning rate on oxidation peak current were investigated. Under optimal conditions, the designed sensor had good linear range of 1 nM–1000 nM, and the detection of limit of the constructed sensor was 0.75 nM. The constructed sensor was utilized to detect TBBPA in vitamin water, scream drink and genki forest, and satisfactory detection performance had been achieved.

Endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) in the aquatic systems are of growing concerns that could undermine drinking water safety. In this study, manganese (III) oxide (Mn 2 O 3 ) based catalytic ceramic membrane (CCM) was developed for the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS), and its applicability has been tested in degrading the ten different EDCs (including bisphenol analogs (BPs)) in drinking water. The CCMs were synthesized at different calcination temperatures i.e., 850, 950, and 1150 °C. Optimal performance of CCMs/PMS was achieved at a higher degree of calcination. The CCMs/PMS has shown a potential to effectively degrade the EDCs at higher concentrations (mg/L) to trace levels (ng/L). The CCMs/PMS system adopted a non-radical pathway of degrading the EDCs through the extensive generation of singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ), as confirmed using quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. 1 O 2 -based oxidation process showed special selectivity for the decontamination of phenols and bisphenols. The long-term performance of CCMs/PMS showed good stability in degradation of the EDCs in drinking water, also with efficient mineralization (TOC removal >55%) and negligible release of Mn (0.004 wt%Mn/min). CCMs/PMS system also showed high potential in improving water quality by reducing the disinfection byproducts (DBPs) formation potential, highest recorded for bromodichloromethane (CHCl 2 Br, 100%) and lowest for dichloroacetic acids (TCAA, ∼50%). The study provided a highly efficient catalytic ceramic membrane based advanced oxidation process (AOPs) for effective degradation multiple of EDCs in drinking water, and the findings of this work can be a baseline for full-scale water treatment applications.

The residue of estrogenic-disrupting compounds (EDCs) that are secreted by cows, added as drugs, and present in the feed may exist in dairy products. A gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-estrogen receptor (ER) cocktail colorimetric assay equipped with ER cocktail solid phase extraction (SPE) was established to screen EDCs. Nine EDCs with high, moderate, and low estrogenic activity were selected to be the representative targets. The recognition range of the colorimetric assay combined with the ER cocktail SPE was wider than that of a single ERα or ERβ. The lowest detection limit of the established assay was about 10−9mg·mL−1. The detection limits of estrone, bisphenol A, and bisphenol B were about one order of magnitude lower than the method based on a single ER. The recoveries of the spiked nine EDCs were between 80.0% and 110.0%, and daidzein was identified in the dairy product. The developed method has potential application prospects in food safety and environmental monitoring.Keywords:estrogenic-disrupting compounds;estrogen receptor cocktail;solid phase extraction;gold nanoparticles colorimetric assay;dairy products

It is of vital importance for industrial applications by developing simple, robust, economic, eco-friendly and easy scale-up methods for fabricating hydrophobic mesoporous activated carbon (MAC) from sustainable raw materials with high adsorption performance for bulky organic pollutants removal . Herein, a novel one-step facile approach coupling carbothermal reduction with catalytic activation was firstly established for preparing the coconut shell-based hydrophobic MAC modified with nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI@MAC). The in-situ synthesized NZVI (merely 0.33 wt%) by carbothermal reduction could not only catalyze the gasification reaction between carbon and CO 2 to fabricate MAC (d BET = 5.17 nm, S BET = 933.12 m 2 g −1 ), but also catalyze the amorphous carbon to form hydrophobic graphitic layers covering its surface. In striking contrast to the unmodified activated carbon, the NZVI@MAC surprisingly exhibited a remarkably 8.62-fold higher initial adsorption rate and a slightly increased adsorption capacity of 327.60 mg g −1 for bisphenol A (BPA). Intriguingly, the high mesoporous proportion (70–90%) of NZVI@MAC with the average pore size of 4.1–5.2 nm was effective in reducing the diffusion resistance for BPA. Such high adsorption performance under neutral conditions was primarily attributed to the strong hydrophobic interaction , π-π interaction and the weak hydrogen bonding. Moreover, the NZVI@MAC showed robust anti-interference properties in actual environmental conditions containing various inorganic ions and in a wide pH range (3–10). Therefore, the cost-effective, eco-friendly, sustainable and recyclable hydrophobic NZVI@MAC with stable structure and excellent performance for bulky organic adsorption is a promising material for practical applications, especially in drinking water purification.
