Ferrous metal-organic frameworks with strong electron-donating properties for persulfate activation to effectively degrade aqueous sulfamethoxazole.

ABSTRACT: Three novel persulfate activators, Fe(II)-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were synthesized for the degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX). The degradation experiment results showed that all the Fe(II)MOFs could effectively activate persulfate and degrade more than 97% SMX within 180 min, with higher than 77% persulfate decomposition efficiencies. It was found by Mössbauer spectra that the variation of organic ligands for synthesis have an influence on the content of Fe(II) of these MOFs, thus resulted in the order of activation capacities: Fe(Nic) > Fe(PyBDC) > Fe(PIP). It was demonstrated that the activation of persulfate was mainly ascribed to the heterogeneous process that accomplished by surface-bounded Fe(II) acted as the main active site to provided electrons for persulfate or dissolved oxygen. EPR and molecular probe studies confirmed the coexistence of SO₄·^-, ·OH, and O₂·^-, and differentiated their contributions in SMX degradation. Possible degradation pathways of SMX were proposed based on the detection results of intermediates by UPLC-MS/MS. This work provides a new prospect into the synthesis of high-performance MOFs with strong electron-donating properties as efficient persulfate activators, which may encourage the employ of MOFs in the wastewater treatment process.

Defluorination of aqueous perfluorooctanesulfonate by activated persulfate oxidation.

Project description:Activated persulfate oxidation technologies based on sulfate radicals were first evaluated for defluorination of aqueous perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS). The influences of catalytic method, time, pH and K2S2O8 amounts on PFOS defluorination were investigated. The intermediate products during PFOS defluorination were detected by using LC/MS/MS. The results showed that the S2O8 (2-) had weak effect on the defluorination of PFOS, while the PFOS was oxidatively defluorinated by sulfate radicals in water. The defluorination efficiency of PFOS under various treatment was followed the order: HT (hydrothermal)/K2S2O8 > UV (ultraviolet)/K2S2O8 > Fe(2+)/K2S2O8 > US (ultrasound)/K2S2O8. Low pH was favorable for the PFOS defluorination with sulfate radicals. Increase in the amount of S2O8 (2-) had positive effect on PFOS defluorination. However, further increase in amounts of S2O8 (2-) caused insignificant improvement in PFOS defluorination due to elimination of sulfate radicals under high concentration of S2O8 (2-). CF3(CF2)nCOOH (n?=?0-6) were detected as intermediates during PFOS defluorination. Sulfate radicals oxidation and hydrolysis were the main mechanisms involved in defluorination process of PFOS.

Exploring the Association of Electron-Donating Corroles with Phthalocyanines as Electron Acceptors.

Project description:Electron-donating corroles (Cor) were integrated with electron-accepting phthalocyanines (Pc) to afford two different non-covalent Cor ⋅ Pc systems. At the forefront was the coordination between a 10-meso-pyridine Cor and a ZnPc. The complexation was corroborated in a combination of NMR, absorption, and fluorescence assays, and revealed association with binding constants as high as 106 m-1 . Steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopies evidenced that regardless of exciting Cor or Pc, the charge-separated state evolved efficiently in both cases, followed by a slow charge-recombination to reinstate the ground state. The introduction of non-covalent linkages between Cor and Pc induces sizeable differences in the context of light harvesting and transfer of charges when compared with covalently linked Cor-Pc conjugates.

Fe(II)-activated persulfate oxidation to degrade iopamidol in water: parameters optimization and degradation paths.

Project description:Iodinated contrast media (ICM), which was widely used in medical imaging and was difficult to remove by conventional wastewater treatment methods, attained much attention due to its potential environmental impacts. Herein, iopamidol (IPM), one typical compound of ICM, was found to be rapidly degraded by ferrous activated persulfate oxidation (Fe(II)/PS) as compared with PS or Fe(II) alone. With a persulfate concentration of 1 mmol L-1, n(Fe(II))/n(PS) of 1:10, and a pH of 3.0, 78% IPM was degraded within 60 min, with a degradation rate of 0.1266 min-1. It was demonstrated that IPM degradation and deiodination were favored by a high temperature, while affected positively by acidic and neutral conditions. Radical quenching experiments and Electron Paramagnetic Resonace (EPR) spectra showed that the combined effects of SO4-· and ·OH contributed dominantly to degrade IPM, while the ·OH played an essential role during the degradation reaction. Through the Discrete Fourier Transform quantum chemical calculation, the possible reaction pathways for the oxidation of IPM by ·OH are as follows: IPM-TP651-TP667-TP541-TP557, IPM-TP651-TP525-TP557, IPM-TP705-TP631-TP661, and IPM-TP705-TP735. The obtained results showed that IPM could be degraded effectively by Fe(II)/PS system, giving a promising technique for IPM removal from water.

The electron donating capacity of biochar is dramatically underestimated.

Project description:Biochars have gathered considerable interest for agronomic and engineering applications. In addition to their high sorption ability, biochars have been shown to accept or donate considerable amounts of electrons to/from their environment via abiotic or microbial processes. Here, we measured the electron accepting (EAC) and electron donating (EDC) capacities of wood-based biochars pyrolyzed at three different highest treatment temperatures (HTTs: 400, 500, 600 °C) via hydrodynamic electrochemical techniques using a rotating disc electrode. EACs and EDCs varied with HTT in accordance with a previous report with a maximal EAC at 500 °C (0.4 mmol(e(-)).gchar(-1)) and a large decrease of EDC with HTT. However, while we monitored similar EAC values than in the preceding study, we show that the EDCs have been underestimated by at least 1 order of magnitude, up to 7 mmol(e(-)).gchar(-1) for a HTT of 400 °C. We attribute this existing underestimation to unnoticed slow kinetics of electron transfer from biochars to the dissolved redox mediators used in the monitoring. The EDC of other soil organic constituents such as humic substances may also have been underestimated. These results imply that the redox properties of biochars may have a much bigger impact on soil biogeochemical processes than previously conjectured.

Cobalt doped graphitic carbon nitride as an effective catalyst for peracetic acid to degrade sulfamethoxazole.

Project description:In this study, cobalt doped graphitic carbon nitride (Co-CN) was prepared and applied as a catalyst to activate peracetic acid (PAA) for sulfamethoxazole (SMX) degradation at neutral pH. PAA could be efficiently activated by Co-CN resulting in the efficient degradation of SMX. Characterization results of fresh and used Co-CN suggested that cobalt was successfully doped in graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) through chemical bonding (Co-N bond) and the surface cobalt species in Co-CN (i.e., [triple bond, length as m-dash]Co(ii) and [triple bond, length as m-dash]Co(iii)) were the main activators for PAA. Organic radicals (i.e., CH3C(O)O˙ and CH3C(O)OO˙) were proved to be the dominant reactive species for SMX removal in the Co-CN/PAA system by radical scavenging experiments. The increase of cobalt doping content, PAA dosage or Co-CN dosage could accelerate SMX degradation and the neutral condition was highly favorable to SMX removal in Co-CN/PAA system. Co-CN exhibited a good stability and reusability for PAA activation in degrading SMX. Four possible degradation pathways of SMX (i.e., hydroxylation, nitration, bond cleavage and coupling reaction) were proposed in the Co-CN/PAA system according to eight identified transformation products.

Tryptophan-to-heme electron transfer in ferrous myoglobins.

Project description:It was recently demonstrated that in ferric myoglobins (Mb) the fluorescence quenching of the photoexcited tryptophan 14 (*Trp(14)) residue is in part due to an electron transfer to the heme porphyrin (porph), turning it to the ferrous state. However, the invariance of *Trp decay times in ferric and ferrous Mbs raises the question as to whether electron transfer may also be operative in the latter. Using UV pump/visible probe transient absorption, we show that this is indeed the case for deoxy-Mb. We observe that the reduction generates (with a yield of about 30%) a low-valence Fe-porphyrin ? [Fe(II)(porph(?-))] -anion radical, which we observe for the first time to our knowledge under physiological conditions. We suggest that the pathway for the electron transfer proceeds via the leucine 69 (Leu(69)) and valine 68 (Val(68)) residues. The results on ferric Mbs and the present ones highlight the generality of Trp-porphyrin electron transfer in heme proteins.

Pharmaceutically modified subtilisins withstand acidic conditions and effectively degrade gluten in vivo.

Project description:Detoxification of gluten immunogenic epitopes is a promising strategy for the treatment of celiac disease. Our previous studies have shown that these epitopes can be degraded in vitro by subtilisin enzymes derived from Rothia mucilaginosa, a natural microbial colonizer of the oral cavity. The challenge is that the enzyme is not optimally active under acidic conditions as encountered in the stomach. We therefore aimed to protect and maintain subtilisin-A enzyme activity by exploring two pharmaceutical modification techniques: PEGylation and Polylactic glycolic acid (PLGA) microencapsulation. PEGylation of subtilisin-A (Sub-A) was performed by attaching methoxypolyethylene glycol (mPEG, 5 kDa). The PEGylation protected subtilisin-A from autolysis at neutral pH. The PEGylated Sub-A (Sub-A-mPEG) was further encapsulated by PLGA. The microencapsulated Sub-A-mPEG-PLGA showed significantly increased protection against acid exposure in vitro. In vivo, gluten immunogenic epitopes were decreased by 60% in the stomach of mice fed with chow containing Sub-A-mPEG-PLGA (0.2 mg Sub-A/g chow) (n = 9) compared to 31.9% in mice fed with chow containing unmodified Sub-A (n = 9). These results show that the developed pharmaceutical modification can protect Sub-A from auto-digestion as well as from acid inactivation, thus rendering the enzyme more effective for applications in vivo.

Dynamic Adsorption of Sulfamethoxazole from Aqueous Solution by Lignite Activated Coke.

Project description:In this paper, lignite activated coke was used as adsorbent for dynamic column adsorption experiments to remove sulfamethoxazole from aqueous solution. The effects of column height, flow rate, initial concentration, pH and humic acids concentration on the dynamic adsorption penetration curve and mass transfer zone length were investigated. Results showed penetration time would be prolonged significantly by increasing column height, while inhibited by the increasement of initial concentration and flow rate. Thomas and Yoon-Nelson model and the Adams-Bohart model were used to elucidate the adsorption mechanism, high coefficients of R2 > 0.95 were obtained in Thomas model for most of the adsorption entries, which revealed that the adsorption rate could probably be dominated by mass transfer at the interface. The average change rates of mass transfer zone length to the changes of each parameters, such as initial concentration, the column height, the flow rate and pH, were 0.0003, 0.6474, 0.0076, 0.0073 and 0.0191 respectively, revealed that column height may play a vital role in dynamic column adsorption efficiency. These findings suggested that lignite activated coke can effectively remove sulfamethoxazole contaminants from wastewater in practice.

Degradation of dimethyl phthalate using persulfate activated by UV and ferrous ions: optimizing operational parameters mechanism and pathway.

Project description:The present study aimed to model and optimize the dimethyl phthalate (DMP) degradation from aqueous solution using UVC/ Na2S2O8/Fe2+ system based on the response surface methodology (RSM). A high removal efficiency (97%) and TOC reduction (64.2%) were obtained under optimum conditions i.e. contact time?=?90 min, SPS concentration?=?0.601 mM/L, Fe2+?=?0.075 mM/L, pH?=?11 and DMP concentration?=?5 mg/L. Quenching experiments confirmed that sulfate radicals were predominant radical species for DMP degradation. The effect of CO3 - on DMP degradation was more complicated than other aquatic background anions. The possible pathway for DMP decomposition was proposed according to HPLC and GC-MS analysis. The average oxidation state (AOS) and carbon oxidation state (COS) values as biodegradability indicators demonstrated that the UVC/SPS/Fe2+ system can improve the bioavailability of DMP over the time. Finally, the performance of UVC/SPS/Fe2+ system for DMP treatment in different aquatic solutions: tap water, surface runoff, treated and raw wastewater were found to be 95.7, 88.5, 80.5, and 56.4%, respectively.
