Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are reckoned effective for removing persistent and recalcitrant pollutants by reactive oxygen species (ROSs), including hydroxyl radicals (•OH), sulfate radicals (SO 4 • - ), and superoxide radicals (•O 2 - ), as well as singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ). In this work, the Mo 2 C quantum dots enriched N-doped graphitic carbon layers (Mo 2 C QDs/NGCLs) were constructed via a facile two-step methodology. Interestingly, the Mo 2 C QDs/NGCLs acted as a highly efficient cocatalyst and/or catalyst simultaneously in AOPs, in particular visible-light-driven (VLD) Fenton and VLD PMS activation. In the hydroxyl radical-based AOPs (•OH-AOPs), it exhibited a remarkable removal efficiency for a range of aromatic organic pollutants , including rhodamine B (RhB) (99.9 %), phenol (90 %), benzophenone-3 (BZP) (83 %), methyl orange (MO) (58 %), methyl blue (MB) (89 %), ibuprofen (IBU) (100 %), and carbamazepine (CBZ) (50 %). Sulfate radicals-based AOPs (SR-AOPs) effectively degrade RhB (72 %), MO (83 %), IBU (70 %), and BZP (100 %). Thus, the present findings confirmed the potential of transition metal carbides for AOP applications and established a solid theoretical and technical basis for further research.

Invasive bacterial infection interferes the normal orchestrated course of healing cascades during cutaneous regeneration. Hypoxia in the deep-seated infection microenvironment (IME) considerably precludes photonic disinfection efficacy, especially antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT). Herein we develop IME-unlocked oxygen-evolving bio-catalytic fabrics composed of electrospun poly(ε-caprolactone) scaffolds, MXene/SnS 2 bio-heterojunctions (MX/SnS bio-HJs), and lactate oxidase (LOx) for deep-seated bacteria-infected cutaneous regeneration. LOx can deplete lactic acid produced by bacteria at infected site and yield hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ). The MX/SnS bio-HJs not only catalyze H 2 O 2 to produce hydroxyl radicals (·OH) through Fenton-like reaction, but also generate oxygen (O 2 ) to fortify aPDT under Near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation, consequently, expeditious disinfection is achieved. Moreover, in vivo results reveal that the bio-catalytic fabrics exert benign cutaneous regeneration ability by slaughtering bacteria, promoting hemostasis and collagen deposition. This work provides a tactic to instill fabrics with an IME-unlocked catalytic sterilization capability through endogenous O 2 evolution for remedying infected wounds.

Photocatalytic technologies capable of using solar energy for environmental restoration have much progressed with the increasing environmental concern. In this study, the ternary photocatalyst Ag 3 PO 4 /NG/g-C 3 N 4 conforming to the Z-scheme mechanism was prepared by a facile in-situ deposition method . Its morphology, chemical composition and optical property were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. Such photocatalyst (0.50 g/L loading) achieved the highest 93.6% degradation rate of tetracycline (TC), and 72% mineralization rate of TC comparing with single Ag 3 PO 4 (25% mineralization rate of TC). The detection of reactive oxidative species indicates that the photodegradation of TC is mainly caused by holes, O 2 − and OH. The synergistic effect of Ag 3 PO 4 , nitrogen-doped graphene (NG) and g-C 3 N 4 in the composite accelerates the separation and migration of photogenerated carrier via a solid electron mediator NG , and simultaneously inhibits the photo-corrosion of Ag 3 PO 4 , thereby improving the photo-stability of the ternary photocatalyst.

Chlorobenzene (CB) is an important organic chemical material that is volatile and difficult to degrade, and has received much attention because of its strong ozone generation potential. An electrochemical-sodium peroxydisulfate (PDS) system was constructed and the oxidation reaction path of chlorobenzene in this system was analyzed. The effects of current density, PDS concentration, initial pH, CB blow-off gas ratio and temperature on the oxidation and mineralization rate of chlorobenzene in the system were investigated respectively. At a current density of 168 A/m 2 , a PDS concentration of 0.5 mol/L, an initial pH of 10, a CB blow-off gas ratio of 20% and a reaction temperature of 60 °C, the CB conversion and mineralization rates were able to reach more than 90%. The results of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) and 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone hydrochloride (TEMP) as spin trapping agents indicate the presence of ⦁OH, · S O 4 − and 1 O 2 in the system. The signal of · O 2 − was also captured after the quenching of ⦁OH, which further indicates the presence of 1 O 2 . And the results of active substance quenching experiments showed that the active species that mainly contributed to the oxidation of chlorobenzene included ⦁OH, · S O 4 − and 1 O 2 , and their contributions to the oxidation of chlorobenzene were 25.0%, 31.7% and 22.2%, respectively. The Liquid Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (LC-MS) characterization results showed that the formation of chlorophenol and hydroquinone and their ring-opening reactions were the most critical processes in the oxidative decomposition of chlorobenzene, and the reaction pathways for the oxidation of chlorobenzene by ⦁OH, · S O 4 − and 1 O 2 were proposed by these characterization results.

This study presents a pioneering synthesis of a direct Z-scheme Y2TmSbO7/GdYBiNbO7heterojunction photocatalyst (YGHP) using an ultrasound-assisted hydrothermal synthesis technique. Additionally, novel photocatalytic nanomaterials, namely Y2TmSbO7and GdYBiNbO7, were fabricated via the hydrothermal fabrication technique. A comprehensive range of characterization techniques, including X-ray diffractometry, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, UV-visible spectrophotometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray energy-dispersive spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, photocurrent testing, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy, and electron paramagnetic resonance, was employed to thoroughly investigate the morphological features, composition, chemical, optical, and photoelectric properties of the fabricated samples. The photocatalytic performance of YGHP was assessed in the degradation of the pesticide acetochlor (AC) and the mineralization of total organic carbon (TOC) under visible light exposure, demonstrating eximious removal efficiencies. Specifically, AC and TOC exhibited removal rates of 99.75% and 97.90%, respectively. Comparative analysis revealed that YGHP showcased significantly higher removal efficiencies for AC compared to the Y2TmSbO7, GdYBiNbO7, or N-doped TiO2photocatalyst, with removal rates being 1.12 times, 1.21 times, or 3.07 times higher, respectively. Similarly, YGHP demonstrated substantially higher removal efficiencies for TOC than the aforementioned photocatalysts, with removal rates 1.15 times, 1.28 times, or 3.51 times higher, respectively. These improvements could be attributed to the Z-scheme charge transfer configuration, which preserved the preferable redox capacities of Y2TmSbO7and GdYBiNbO7. Furthermore, the stability and durability of YGHP were confirmed, affirming its potential for practical applications. Trapping experiments and electron spin resonance analyses identified active species generated by YGHP, namely •OH, •O2−, and h+, allowing for comprehensive analysis of the degradation mechanisms and pathways of AC. Overall, this investigation advances the development of efficient Z-scheme heterostructural materials and provides valuable insights into formulating sustainable remediation strategies for combatting AC contamination.
