We prepared the Fe 3 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 nanoparticles (NPs) through a simple electrostatic self-assembly method with a 3:97 weight ratio to investigate their Fenton , photo-Fenton and oxidative functionalities besides photocatalytic functionality. We observed an improvement of the Fenton and photo-Fenton activities of the Fe 3 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 nanocomposites . This improvement was attributed to efficient charge transfer between Fe 3 O 4 and g-C 3 N 4 at the heterojunctions, inhibition of electron-hole recombination, a high surface area, and stabilization of Fe 3 O 4 against leaching by the hydrophobic g-C 3 N 4 . The obtained NPs showed a higher degradation potential for rhodamine B (RhB) dye than those of Fe 3 O 4 and g-C 3 N 4 . As compared to photocatalysis , the efficiency of RhB degradation in the Fenton and photo-Fenton reactions was increased by 20% and 90%, respectively. Additionally, the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) activity of the prepared nanomaterials was studied with 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidinedihydrochloride (TMB) as a substrate. Dopamine oxidation was also examined. Results indicate that Fe 3 O 4 /g–C 3 N 4 nanocomposites offers more efficient degradation of RhB dye in a photo-Fenton system compared with regular photocatalytic degradation, which requires a long time. Our study also confirmed that Fe 3 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 nanocomposites can be used as a potential material for mimicking HRP owing to its high affinity for TMB. These findings suggest good potential for applications in biosensing and as a catalyst in oxidation reactions.

The Fe 3 O 4 @MIL-100(Fe) hybrid composites are successfully synthesized via an in-situ growth method and characterized using various techniques. The ability of the magnetic metal–organic framework to promote photo-Fenton like processes is investigated using levofloxacin as a representative substrate. The results show that the composite with a Fe 3 O 4 :MIL-100(Fe) mass ratio of 1:4 has a higher degradation efficiency (up to 93.4%) than Fe 3 O 4 , MIL-100(Fe), and the other fabricated composites. This higher catalytic activity is ascribed to the synergistic effect between Fe 3 O 4 and MIL-100(Fe), by which the quick separation of hole-electron pair from MIL-100(Fe) and the efficient reduction of Fe 3+ to Fe 2+ in the photo-Fenton reaction are mutually promoted. Moreover, the composite shows favorable recyclability without apparent loss of apparent photo-Fenton activity even after five cycles, and more importantly, can be recovered magnetically. The possible degradation mechanism and intermediates of levofloxacin in the photo-Fenton reaction have been tentatively proposed based on free radical quenching, electron paramagnetic resonance and mass spectrometry analysis. Finally, the developed Fe 3 O 4 @MIL-100(Fe) is successfully applied for the removal of levofloxacin from spiked wastewater with removal efficiencies ranging from 77.9 to 85.5%, which indicates that the proposed system has significant potential for wastewater treatment applications.

Nanomaterials with visible light-driven catalytic ability are beneficial in controlling environmental pollutants. Porphyrin-based metal organic gel (MOG) was herein synthesized in one step and magnetic metal organic gel (MMOG) was successfully prepared via in-situ reaction of MOG and Fe 3 O 4 . This MMOG was developed as a novel visible light assisted Fenton-like catalyst. The catalytic experiments showed the high photo-Fenton activity of MMOG in the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) in the presence of visible light and H 2 O 2 with a RhB degradation efficiency of 94.2% within 40 min. Notably, the obtained MMOG can kill E. coli and S. aureus with high killing rate (>99.999%) under visible light. Importantly, the MMOG can be recovered simply by an external magnetic field due to the unique magnetic property. This easily synthesized MMOG with photo-Fenton activity under visible light and magnetic property makes MOG based on the photo-Fenton reaction a prospective material for the environmental and biomedical applications.

Background The Fenton-like reaction is a highly potential advanced oxidation process. The photo-Fenton-like reaction formed by the combination of photocatalytic advanced oxidation process, which combines their advantages, breaks the original Fenton-like reaction rate bottleneck. Methods In this study, an ultra-thin MOF (Cu-TCPP(BA)-MOF) with porphyrin as the ligand and copper as the metal node was synthesized via a simple one-pot method for the first time. Significant Findings It activates Peroxymonosulfate (PMS) under visible light to degrade 10 mg/L Rhodamine B which can be completely degraded within 40 min. The pseudo-first-order rate constant of RhB is 0.9011 min −1 , being 5 folds larger than this for CuO as catalysts. ESR analysis shows that Cu-TCPP(BA)-MOF/PMS/vis system produces a large amount of non-radical 1 O 2 . Also under visible light, with E. coli concentration of 10 7 cfu/mL, it can be completely inactivated within 50 min. Dilution spreading plate method and Fluorescence spectroscopy confirmed the complete death of bacteria. In terms of mechanism, the ultra-thin MOF provides a large number of Cu 2+ active sites. Under visible light, the cycle between Cu 2+ and Cu + is accelerated and the pathways that produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) is changed, thereby improving the performance of contaminant treatment and sterilization.

The visible-light responsive hybrid catalysts (Zn 0.94 Fe 0.04 S/g-C 3 N 4 or ZCN) were synthesized by a rapid microwave hydrothermal method. Our results showed that the deposition of Fe-doped ZnS onto g-C 3 N 4 sheets prevented the aggregation of Zn 0.94 Fe 0.04 S and increased the surface area for mass transfer and light absorption. The highest degradation rate of p -nitrophenol (PNP) was 96.0% and the total organic carbon removal rate was 55.4% after 60-min simulated solar light irradiation on ZCN with Fe doping and g-C 3 N 4 loading ratios of 0.04 and 0.20, respectively. Hydroxyl radical played a dominant role in PNP degradation, which was primarily attributed to the photo-Fenton reactions. The PNP degradation pathway involved denitration and hydroxylation reactions according to the Density Function Theory calculations and HPLC-MS/MS results. The QSAR analysis indicated that the toxicity of most intermediates was lower than PNP. This study develops novel materials with superior photocatalytic activity for elimination of refractory organic pollutants in wastewater.

Hematite (α-Fe 2 O 3 ), as one of Fenton reagents, is widely investigated for the treatment of wastewater in the field of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). Considering the fast charge carrier recombination of hematite (α-Fe 2 O 3 ), we have successfully synthesized a novel and high active heterogeneous Fenton catalyst α-Fe 2 O 3 /Cu 2 O(SO 4 ) for the degradation of organic pollutants. The results show that the as-obtained Cu 2 O(SO 4 )-Fe9 composite exhibits excellent degradation properties of Orange II. 98.9% degradation rate was achieved for 100 mL of 50 mg/L Orange II solution in the condition of 0.3 g/L Cu 2 O(SO 4 )-Fe9 catalyst, 3 mM H 2 O 2 and pH = 3.5. The degradation rate constants of Cu 2 O(SO 4 )-Fe9 in the photo-Fenton-like system are 9.33 and 4.07 times of Cu 2 O(SO 4 ) and α-Fe 2 O 3 , respectively. In addition, the mechanism and pathway for the degradation of Orange II were proposed. The scheme of combining copper-based oxysulfate Cu 2 O(SO 4 ) with hematite (α-Fe 2 O 3 ) could improve the efficiency of charge carrier separation, which will further enhance the catalytic activity and expand its application in water purification.

Aromatic nitro compounds are the main components of explosives. They are not only explosive and dangerous but also have high toxicity and high stability in the human body, soil, and water resources, destroying the ecological environment. Herein, a simple hydrothermal method is used to successfully prepare layered MIL-100 (Fe). A series of aromatic nitro compounds including p-nitrophenol (PNP), nitrobenzene (NB), dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT), dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP), and 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (2,4,6-TNP) were degraded by the photo-Fenton method. The MIL-100 (Fe) photo-Fenton agent can almost completely degrade PNP within 2 min. Similarly, it has a good degradation effect on other pollutants. Finally, the mechanism of the photo-Fenton reaction was discussed by product analysis and free radical capture experiments after the photochemical reaction. This study demonstrates the potential application value of MIL-100 (Fe) as a photo-Fenton reagent to degrade nitroaromatic explosives.

The development of new nanomaterials for the highly efficient wastewater treatment has been one of the hot scientific researches. Herein, we report a novel 3D Fe 3+ -doped BiOBr-based magnetic Janus micromotors with superior solar photo-Fenton catalytic activity for organic pollutant degradation. Taking advantage of hydrogen peroxide as reagent and fuel, Fe 3+ -doped BiOBr based Janus micromotors exhibited extremely high efficiency for methylene blue degradation in a solar photo-Fenton system even at mild pH conditions , which was almost 4 times than BiOBr. The speed of the Janus micromotors could reach 214.7 ± 19.4 μm s −1 in a 5% H 2 O 2 solution. Factors influencing the solar photo-Fenton reaction including Fe 3+ -doping amount, pH, concentration of H 2 O 2 , self-propelled movement as well as mechanical stirring were investigated to clarify the degradation mechanism . Nearly 97% of methylene blue was degraded by Fe 0.11 Bi 0.89 OBr/Fe 3 O 4 /Mn 3 O 4 Janus micromotors in the presence of 3% H 2 O 2 solution at neutral environment within 50 min. This study provided a new insight into the preparation of Janus micromotors for water purification applications based on solar photo-Fenton reaction.

A novel approach to synthesize phytic acid (PA) functionalized graphene oxide (P-pFGO-7) treated by the photo-Fenton reaction has been designed, which has been used as an adsorbent for efficient capture of U(VI) from aqueous solution. The structure and morphology of P-pFGO-7 were characterized well. The adsorption property for P-pFGO-7 was comprehensively assessed by batch experiments, showing the high adsorption capacity (266.7 mg/g, at pH = 4.0, T = 298 K), fast adsorption kinetics (~10 min), good selectivity for U(VI) and Ln-An ions in various coexisting ions and excellent regeneration capacity. With the assistance of various characterization techniques and batch adsorption results, it is found that PA makes the most contribution to coordinate U(VI) heavily depending on the P O moiety. P-pFGO-7 could be regenerated by 0.1 mol/L Na 2 CO 3 with ~95% desorption efficiency and reused well after five recycles. This present work provides a feasible route to modify graphene oxide and extend PA for potentially practical application in the removal of U(VI) from radioactive wastewater .

In this work, typical refractory pollutant Rhodamine B (RhB) was effectively degraded by Cu-Fe LDHs/Bi 2 WO 6 composite in the photo-Fenton process. The hydrothermal synthesis of Cu-Fe LDHs/Bi 2 WO 6 composite with ethylene glycol as reductant created the multivalent coexistence of the same metal element to achieve a self-circle redox reaction between metals. The photo-Fenton process by Cu-Fe LDHs/Bi 2 WO 6 incredibly eliminated the limitation of strong acidic pH value applied in the Fenton process. ∙OH generated by Cu-Fe LDHs/Bi 2 WO 6 was 5 times that of Cu-Fe LDHs during the photo-Fenton process. The complete degradation of RhB in the photo-Fenton process under the optimal conditions of initial pH= 6, 5 mmol/L of H 2 O 2 , and 1 g/L of Cu-Fe LDHs/Bi 2 WO 6 dosage was far more than 46% of RhB degradation in the photocatalytic process and 76% of RhB degradation in the Fenton process. Cu-Fe LDHs/Bi 2 WO 6 composite exhibited the excellent redox ability, electron transfer ability and reusability during the photo-Fenton process. The acceleration of Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ cycles in the Cu-Fe LDHs/Bi 2 WO 6 /H 2 O 2 /Vis system was mainly ascribable to the combination of efficient transfer of photogenerated electrons and self-circle redox of Fe 3+ /Cu + . It is expected for the promising application of multivalent bimetallic photo-Fenton catalysts and rendering enlightenments for photo-Fenton catalytic oxidation reaction.

High-valent ferryl (Fe IV ) intermediates are important reactive species in biological oxidation and Fe-catalyzed advanced oxidation processes (Fe-AOPs). Notwithstanding notable progress has been made on Fe IV identification, the second-order reaction rate constants of Fe IV with contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) were rarely reported in literature, severely hindering understanding its reactivity and kinetics toward various CECs. To this end, we discovered a novel system, i.e., photo-Fenton reaction of peracetic acid with Fe 3+ -nitrilotriacetate complex, which enabled stable generation of Fe IV with steady-state concentrations at ∼10 −8 –10 −7 M at neutral pH, as evidenced by electron spin resonance (ESR) trapping detection, quenching experiments and probe testing. Notably, a facile competition kinetic methodology was developed by using methyl phenyl sulfoxide (PMSO) as a probe, which enabled to characterize the reactivity and kinetics of Fe IV with 12 target CECs (e.g., phenolic compounds, endocrine disruptor, herbicide, and pharmaceuticals). The measured second-order rate constants were in a range of 3.99 × 10 3 –4.75 × 10 5 M −1 s −1 , which were correlated to the ionization potential of the target CECs, owing to electrophilic attack by Fe IV . This achievement can fill a critical gap in uncovering the reactivity and kinetics of Fe IV toward CECs for promising environmental application.

Photocatalysis water treatment without artificial energy is cost-effective, waste-free and sustainable. Coventional powder photocatalysts have tiny contact surfaces, low catalytic efficiency, and are difficult to recycle and reuse, restricting their usage. Herein, a Lignin@t-FeC 2 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 material is developed by engineering hollow quadrangle t-FeC 2 O 4 and g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets on lignin membranes through facile impregnation coating and precipitation reaction. Fast mass transport, catalytic activity and accessibility characterize hollow tetragonal FeC 2 O 4 · 2H 2 O. TEM, SEM and FTIR show that lignin binds t-FeC 2 O 4 and g-C 3 N 4 . The g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets are uniformly wrapped on the surface of lignin fibers, and t-FeC 2 O 4 is loaded between them. This structure increases visible light absorption and active site-contaminant contact. The chain reaction produces extremely active hydroxyl radicals from hydrogen peroxide because the Lignin@t-FeC 2 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 modules are rich inFe II , according to XPS. Transient photocurrent response curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy suggest a promoted charge migration and isolation at the redox reaction interface in the Lignin@t-FeC 2 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 system. As a result, Lignin@t-FeC 2 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 degrades 99% Rhodamine B within 40 minutes, and this performance is stable even under difficult conditions, such as low hydrogen peroxide concentration and high pH. This study combines lignin membranes with the photo-Fenton reaction, and thus provides new concept for the development and application of membranes and photocatalysis.
