Antibiotics are extensively used in human medicine and animal breeding. The use of antibiotics has posed significant risks challenges to the natural water environment. On a global scale, have been frequently detected environment, azithromycin (254–529 ng·L−1), ciprofloxacin (245–1149 ofloxacin (518–1998 sulfamethoxazole (1325–5053 tetracycline (31.4–561 ng·L−1) most wastewater surface water. Abuses caused threat resources seriously threatened survival beings. Therefore, there is an urgent need reduce antibiotic pollution improve Researchers trying develop effective methods technologies for degradation Finding efficient energy-saving treating pollutants become important topic. Photocatalytic technology can effectively remove highly toxic, low-concentration, difficult-to-treat pollutants, tungsten trioxide (WO3) extremely potential alternative catalyst. Pt/WO3 photocatalytic efficiency was 72.82%, While Cu-WO3 96.8%; WO3/g-C3N4 ceftiofur 70%, WO3/W florfenicol 99.7%; WO3/CdWO4 93.4%; WO3/Ag sulfanilamide 96.2%. Compared other purification methods, non-toxic ensures complete through stable reaction process, making it ideal treatment method. Here, we summarize performance corresponding principles trioxide-based materials as catalyst provide substantial insight further improving WO3-based materials.

In Situ/Operando Methods for Understanding Electrocatalytic Nitrate Reduction Reaction

Small Methods, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 7(7)

Published: April 10, 2023

With the development of industrial and agricultural, a large amount nitrate is produced, which not only disrupts natural nitrogen cycle, but also endangers public health. Among commonly used treatment techniques, electrochemical reduction reaction (eNRR) has attracted extensive attention due to its mild conditions, pollution-free nature, other advantages. An in-depth understanding eNRR mechanism prerequisite for designing highly efficient electrocatalysts. However, some traditional characterization tools cannot comprehensively deeply study process. It necessary develop in situ operando techniques reveal at time-resolved atomic level. This review discusses summarizes possible eNRR. A detailed introduction various their help provided. Finally, current challenges future opportunities this research area are discussed highlighted.
