In this study, the rice husk-based activated carbon was prepared via pyrolysis of rice husk and simultaneous KOH-activation and EDTA-4Na-modification and used for phenol adsorption from water. When the rice-husk was carbonized at 500 °C and activated at 750 °C with mass ratio of carbon to KOH of 1:3, an activated carbon can be prepared, with rich micro-porosity, high specific area of 2087 m 2 ·g −1 and maximum phenol adsorbance of 194.24 mg·g −1 . When the above activated carbon is prepared by simultaneous KOH-activation and EDTA-4Na-modification at 750 °C, N-containing functional groups were introduced to the activated carbon, which is beneficial to the adsorption of phenol . Under optimum conditions with mass ratio of carbon : KOH : EDTA-4Na = 1:3:1, the specific surface area of the resulting activated carbon decreases to 1368 m 2 ·g −1 , while its maximum adsorption capacity for phenol increases to 215.27 mg·g −1 . The adsorption kinetics of phenol on activated carbon agrees with the pseudo-second-order adsorption model, and the adsorption isotherm follows the Langmuir pattern.

In this study, the potential formation of trichloronitromethane (TCNM) from model organic compounds in ammonia-containing water treated by UV/chlorine process was evaluated. Monochloramine generated from the reaction of chlorine and ammonia can be photolyzed to produce NO 2 − and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), which play important roles in the formation of TCNM during the subsequent chlorination. The results showed that increase of nitrogen to chlorine molar ratio (from 0 to 1.0) and pH (from 6.5 to 8.0) enhanced the formation of TCNM, mainly due to the increased yield of NO 2 − and RNS from the photolyzed monochloramine. The formation of TCNM was interestingly found to be linearly correlated with Hammett constants of the model precursors, which is theoretically related to the rate constants of RNS with model compounds. Enhanced formation of TCNM was also observed during the treatment of natural organic matter by UV/chlorine process in ammonia-containing water. The toxicity assessment showed that TCNM significantly increased the genotoxicity of formed DBPs . Furthermore, the electrophilic substitution reaction of • NO 2 was proved to more likely occur on the ortho and para position of phenol according to the calculation of Gaussian program, and a possible reaction pathway of phenol and • NO 2 was proposed based on the calculated results.

The multifunctional hemin@carbon dot hybrid nanozymes (hemin@CD) with simultaneous peroxidase-like activity and fluorescence signalling property was prepared for the first time. Based on these properties, hemin@CD was applied to develop a dual-channel fluorescent probe for H 2 O 2 and H 2 O 2 -based biocatalytic systems. By virtue of the peroxidase-like activity, hemin@CD can catalyze the oxidative coupling of 4-aminoantipyrine with phenol in the presence of H 2 O 2 to form a pink-red quinoneimine dye with a maximum absorbance at 505 nm. Under the excitation wavelength of 480 nm, the green fluorescence of hemin@CD peaks at 540 nm and is quenched by the generated quinoneimine dye due to an inner filter effect, and also by H 2 O 2 because of dynamic quenching. Thus, a colorimetric and fluorimetric dual-channel optical probe for H 2 O 2 is obtained. Due to the glucose/xanthine transformations under formation of H 2 O 2 by the relevant oxidase catalysis, the probe can be applied for detection of glucose and xanthine. The colorimetric detection limits for H 2 O 2 , glucose and xanthine are 0.11, 0.15, 0.11 μM, and the and fluorimetric detection limits are 0.15, 0.15, 0.12 μM, respectively.

LaFeO 3 /NiO modified g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets (L-N/CNS) were synthesized by a two-step method. HRTEM results showed that an intimate contact between LaFeO 3 , NiO and N-CNS was successfully established. Ninety percent of phenol was degraded within 120 min, and the hydrogen evolution rate of 171.2 μ mol h − 1 g − 1 was obtained over the L-N/CNS heterojunctions under the visible-light irradiation. It was higher than that of g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets, NiO modified g-C 3 N 4 and LaFeO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 . The ⋅ O 2 − radicals acted the crucial role in the photocatalytic degradation reaction. EIS, PL and time-resolved fluorescence spectra demonstrated that L-N/CNS possessed the highest charge separation efficiency. The intimate contact between LaFeO 3 , NiO and g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets promoted the separation and transfer of photo-induced electron–hole pairs and consequently prolonged the exciton lifetime, and implied more photo-induced electrons could be probably involved in the photocatalytic reactions on the surface of photocatalysts. Thus, the visible-light driven photocatalytic performances of L-N/CNS were effective. This work provided a feasible method to design and construct heterostructures for the exploitation of solar energy.

P-nitrophenol (p-NP) is widely present in soil and water environment, which brings great harm to the ecosystem. Therefore, it is of great significance to establish a rapid, sensitive, and selective method for detecting p-NP. In this work, fluorescent sulfur quantum dots (SQDs) were synthesized using a simple top-down approach. The prepared SQDs are monodisperse, uniformly distributed, and the size is about 2.9 nm. After adding p-NP, due to the internal filtering effect (IFE) between p-NP and SQDs, the fluorescence of SQDs can be effectively quenched. It is worth noting that the fluorescence quenching efficiency of the SQDs sensor shows an excellent linear relationship when the concentration of p-NP is 0.2–30 µM and 30–90 µM, respectively. The detection limit is 70 nM, which is better than other reported fluorescence sensing methods. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the detection of p-NP in water samples. Excellent recoveries of 90.9 ~ 102.0% and relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.33 ~ 1.66% were obtained, respectively, which confirmed the great potential of SQDs in the actual measurement of p-NP in environmental samples.

To promote the reduction of Fe 3+ and improve the mineralization of organic pollutants , a novel electro-Fenton coupled with sulfite (Fe 3+ -EF/sulfite) process was constructed, which was superior to Fe 3+ -EF process in terms of carbamazepine (CBZ) degradation and mineralization with 5.99 times enhancement in degradation rate constant and 15.7 times enhancement on TOC removal. The complexation of Fe 3+ and sulfite prevented the precipitation of Fe 3+ , reduced Fe 3+ to Fe 2+ , and accelerated the iron cycle, so that H 2 O 2 utilization efficiency (0.051 mg TOC mg H2O2 −1 ) was greatly improved and electric energy consumption was greatly reduced (0.081 kWh g −1 TOC). The quenching experiments and EPR test confirmed that the reactive species, such as SO 3 •- , SO 4 •- , • OH, O 2 •- and 1 O 2 were responsible for the degradation of CBZ. This process also expanded the pH application range from 3 to 9 with satisfactory CBZ removal efficiency. This work verified the suitability of the Fe 3+ -EF/sulfite process for different sulfites (sulfite and bisulfite), typical pollutants (atrazine, sulfamethazine, rhodamine B) and real wastewater with 2.1–18.7 folds enhancement in degradation rate. The Fe 3+ -EF/sulfite process can achieve deep mineralization with low cost and simple operation, which has a broad and cost-effective application prospect in removal of refractory organic pollutants.

Phenolic waster has a pervasive problem afflicting people throughout the word due to negative impacts for ecosystems and humans. Herein, isolated iron/polyethersulfone (4A-Fe/PES) mixed-matrix membrane as a catalytic non-permselective membrane reactor is developed for rapid reduction of phenol in continuous flow-through reaction. The forced flow of the reactants through the membrane intensifies the contact between reactants and immobilized catalysts, allowing for high catalytic activity with negligible mass transport resistances. In the presence of H 2 O 2 , the 4A-Fe/PES catalytic membrane can remove 99.9 ± 1.6% phenol after 6 min at pH 2 with a catalyst/phenol mass ratio of 1/3. The catalytic membranes show much higher performances than 4A-Fe particles even under neutral or alkaline conditions. In particular, at pH 9, the catalytic membrane exhibits a phenol degradation rate of 92.5 ± 3.4% after 12 h. This strategy provides guidance to the design of high-performance catalytic membranes for efficient removal of phenolic pollutants.

N- oxide based explosives display better explosive performances than traditional explosives, because of the introduction of N- oxide group with strong hydrogen bonding (H-bonding). However, the strong H-bonding results in poor dissolution of N- oxide based explosives, and thus poses a significant challenge for their potential applications. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs), a new generation of green solvents, display promising dissolution toward strong H-bonding materials in recent years. In this study, 2,6-diamino-3,5-dinitropyrazine-1-oxide (LLM-105) was used as a prototype of N- oxide based explosives to study the dissolution in DESs. The dissolution conditions for LLM-105 were optimized by using different types of DESs. The DES-3 - 2 based on choline chloride and urea displayed higher dissolving capacity with 0.52 g/100 g at 80 °C, which was determined by traditionally gravimetric method. Further, the dissolution process of LLM-105 in DES-3 - 2 under different temperatures was investigated by comprehensive analysis including ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography, high-resolution mass spectrum and theoretical calculations. The dissolution of LLM-105 under ≤80 °C was demonstrated to be real dissolution referring to the formation of Zundel-type complex and Meisenheimer complex between DES-3 - 2 and LLM-105. Abnormally high solubility of LLM-105 at >80 °C was attributed to the self-collapse of its H-bonding network by losing a nitro group and an oxygen of N- oxide group.

The SiO 2 @SiO 2 :Tb(1,2-BDC) 3 phen microspheres with monodispersed core-shell structure, are kind of fluorescent particles, which are prepared by a seeded growth method under the catalysis of glacial acetic acid (1,2-BDC, 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid; phen, 1,10-phenanthroline). Firstly, silica seed was fabricated by the hydrolysis of ethyl orthosilicate, and the Tb(1,2-BDC) 3 phen was prepared by using 1,2-BDC and phen. Then, a thin mesoporous silica shell doped with Tb(1,2-BDC) 3 phen was grown on the prepared monodisperse silica colloids. The prepared phosphor was analyzed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric and fluorescence spectroscopy. The experimental results showed that the diameter of the SiO 2 @SiO 2 :Tb((1,2-BDC) 3 phen microsphere was about 200 nm with a typical core-shell structure, among which the diameter of the silica core was 180 nm, and that of the mesoporous silicon shell doped with terbium complex was about 10 nm. The fluorescence intensity of SiO 2 @SiO 2 :Tb((1,2-BDC) 3 phen microsphere is nearly three times higher than that of Tb((1,2-BDC) 3 phen complexes. The prepared microspheres could be widely used in bio-imaging, optoelectronic appliances and medical diagnosis.

The major antibacterial components in wood vinegar was determined and novel microencapsulation of wood vinegar extract was successfully prepared to protect it from environmental stress. Three major fractions, including Fr.1 (mainly phenol and 2-methoxyphenol), Fr.2 (largely 2,6-dimethoxyphenol), and Fr.3 (mostly 3-methyl-1,2-cyclopentanedione), were extracted from wood vinegar by chromatography. Antibacterial activity was evaluated by serial dilution against eight pathogens, including an antibiotic-resistant strain. The minimum inhibition concentration were ranging in 1.56–12.50 μL/mL and 0.78–6.25 μL/mL, respectively, for Fr.1 and Fr.2, which shows that wood vinegar extract exhibits a broad antibacterial spectrum. To improve the stability of wood vinegar extract and make it easier to store, for the first time wood vinegar extract was encapsulated, alginate and chitosan were used as wall materials for the encapsulation using an ionic gelation method. The agar diffusion results showed that the microcapsules still exhibited excellent antibacterial action. The stability of the phenols in microcapsules was improved effectively and in vitro simulation digestion showed a more pronounced release in intestine. The application feasibility of wood vinegar extract was evident and real potential to produce natural antibacterial agents, with real possibility to be used in food and pharmaceutical industries.

Herein, a colorimetric detection strategy for alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was established based on an Fe-doped carbon-based nanozyme. By doping Fe into a Zn MOF and introducing dicyandiamide for pyrolysis, we obtained a two-dimensional carbon nanosheet with exceptional peroxidase-mimicking activity (Fe/C NS). The Fe/C NS has superior affinity to H2O2, can decompose H2O2 into reactive oxygen species, and further oxidize reducing substances such as phenol. ALP can hydrolyze disodium phenyl phosphate into phenol, while the Fe/C NS can promote the reaction between phenol and 4-aminoantipyrine in the presence of H2O2 to produce red quinone imine. Based on the changes of absorbance of the reaction system, ALP activity can be detected in a range of 0.05–6.00 U·L–1 with a detection limit of 0.03 U·L–1. Furthermore, we developed a quantitative relationship between ALP activity and color characteristic values by recording the RGB (red, green, and blue) values of color changes under different ALP concentrations, realizing the convenient determination of ALP activity without specific analytical equipment. This work can effectively broaden the application of nanozymes in biological analysis.

The combination of Co(II) and peracetic acid (PAA) is an important alternative advanced oxidation process (AOPs), in which R-O• radicals including acetyloxyl radicals (CH3C(O)O•) and acetylperoxyl radicals (CH3C(O)OO•) have been considered to be the primary reactive species for the oxidative degradation of contaminants. However, it is still unclear how the active Co species participates in this process. In this study, we conduct a series of experiments including chemical probing, radical quenching, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and Co(III) oxidation to investigate the degradation mechanism of contaminants in the Co(II)/PAA process, using bisphenol A (BPA) as target pollutant. On the basis of these results, we propose a Co(II)-PAA complex (Co(II)-OO(O)CCH3) to be the primary reactive species, while R-O• radicals and Co(III) (available as dimeric Co-peroxide species) derived from the decomposition of Co(II)-PAA complex are the minor contributors for the oxidation of BPA. Factors, including PAA concentration, Co(II) concentration, solution pH, inorganic anions, and natural organic matters (NOM), that might affect the oxidation performance of the Co(II)/PAA process were also investigated systematically. This study sheds new light on the mechanistic understanding of the Co(II)/PAA process for the oxidation of contaminants in water.
