Steam reforming of methanol is a promising approach to achieving hydrogen storage, transportation, and in situ supply. However, this technology restricted by its high CO selectivity catalyst deactivation. In study, CuCr2O4-based catalytic oxygen carriers are tailored for lattice participating low-temperature reforming. We found that the activation originated from Cu–O–Cr structure intensification highly activated induction. Specifically, can be at temperatures as low 160 °C, on one hand, attributed reinforcement and, other owing reactive CuO4 tetrahedron CuCr2O4 spinel. Combined with XAS Raman results, formation demonstrated. The production rate an applied carrier 53.2% higher than control group without formulation. Satisfactory cyclic stability retained after 50th induction supplement cycle, ascribing strongly intensifies Cu–Cr2O3 interactions. DFT results reveal process CH3OH → CH3O* rate-determining step. Compared Cu(111) Cr2O3(110), Cu(111)/Cr2O3(110) surface exhibits lowest potential barrier during process, promoting

Heterogeneous Fenton-like Photocatalytic Process towards the Eradication of Tetracycline under UV Irradiation: Mechanism Elucidation and Environmental Risk Analysis

Water, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 15(13), P. 2336 - 2336

Published: June 23, 2023

The problem of the deep elimination antibiotics in environmental bodies is exceptionally warranted. In this work, a ternary nanocomposite FeNi3/SiO2/CuS (FSC) was fabricated and then integrated with UV light irradiation hydrogen peroxide as heterogeneous Fenton-like photocatalytic system for decomposition tetracycline (TC) from aqueous media. During process, various influencing parameters such pH, catalyst dosage, initial content TC, (H2O2) dose, operating time were explored. At optimized circumstances, i.e., 5 10 mg/L TC concentration, 150 H2O2 200 min degradation time, proportion 96%. results capture agent tests clarified that hydroxyl radical (HO•) played predominant role decontamination TC. Moreover, elevated contact H2O2, efficiency increased significantly. Additionally, findings stability reusability experiments showed percentage removal decreased by only about 5% after six cycles. Furthermore, mechanism over FSC photocatalyst elucidated. Eventually, non-carcinogenic risk analysis surface water sample carried out using multiple processes first time. These outcomes obtained study validate coupling oxidation facilitates great variety pharmaceutical contaminants
