Peracetic acid (PAA) is emerging as a versatile agent for generating long-lived and selectively oxidative organic radicals (R–O • ). Currently, the conventional transition metal–based activation strategies still suffer from metal ion leaching, undesirable by-products formation, uncontrolled reactive species production. To address these challenges, we present method employing BiOI with unique electron structure PAA activator, thereby predominantly CH 3 C(O)O radicals. The specificity of generation ensured superior performance BiOI/PAA system across wide pH range (2.0 to 11.0), even in presence complex interfering substances such humic acids, chloride ions, bicarbonate real-world water matrices. Unlike catalytic methods, degrades sulfonamides without producing any toxic by-products. Our findings demonstrate advantages decontamination pave way development eco-friendly decontaminations based on peroxides.

We report a previously unrecognized but efficient reductive degradation pathway in peroxydisulfate (PDS)-driven soil remediation. With supplements of naturally occurring low-molecular-weight organic acids (LMWOAs) anaerobic biochar-activated PDS systems, rates 12 γ-hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCH)-spiked soils boosted from 40% without LMWOAs to maximum 99% with 1 mM malic acid. Structural analysis revealed that an increase α-hydroxyl groups and diminution pKa1 values facilitated the formation carboxyl anion radicals (COO•–) via electrophilic attack by SO4•–/•OH. Furthermore, kinetics were strongly correlated matter (SOM) contents than iron minerals. Combining newly developed situ fluorescence detector quenching experiments, we showed for high, medium, low SOM contents, dominant reactive species switched singlet oxygen/semiquinone SO4•–/•OH then COO•– (contribution increased 30.8 66.7%), yielding superior HCH degradation. Validation experiments using model compounds highlighted critical roles redox-active moieties, such as phenolic – OH quinones, radical conversion. Our study provides insights into environmental behaviors related activation persulfate broader horizon inspiration more advanced reduction technologies.

Humic acid (HA) is ubiquitous in natural aquatic environments and effectively accelerates decontamination by permanganate (Mn(VII)). However, the detailed mechanism remains uncertain. Herein, intrinsic mechanisms of HA's impact on phenolics oxidation Mn(VII) its intermediate manganese oxo-anions were systematically studied. Results suggested that HA facilitated transfer a single electron from Mn(VII), resulting sequential formation Mn(VI) Mn(V). The formed Mn(V) was further reduced to Mn(III) through double process HA. responsible for HA-boosted as active species attacking pollutants, while tended act due their own instability. In addition, could serve stabilizer form complex with produced retard disproportionation Mn(III). Notably, did not mineralize but essentially changed composition.

Organic contaminants with lower Hammett constants are typically more prone to being attacked by reactive oxygen species (ROS) in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). However, the interactions of an organic contaminant catalytic centers and participating ROS complex lack in-depth understanding. In this work, we observed abnormal phenomenon AOPs that degradation electron-rich phenolics, such as 4-methoxyphenol, acetaminophen, 4-presol, was unexpectedly slower than electron-deficient phenolics a Mn(II)/nitrilotriacetic acid/peroxymonosulfate (Mn(II)/NTA/PMS) system. The established quantitative structure-activity relationship revealed volcano-type dependence rates on pollutants. Leveraging substantial analytical techniques modeling analysis, concluded would inhibit generation both primary (Mn(III)NTA) secondary (Mn(V)NTA) high-valent manganese through complexation competition effects. Specifically, form hydrogen bond Mn(II)/NTA/PMS outer-sphere interactions, thereby reducing electrophilic reactivity PMS accept electron transfer from Mn(II)NTA, slowing down Mn(III)NTA.

Triplet-state dissolved organic matter (3DOM*) plays a crucial role in environmental aquatic photochemistry, with 2,4,6-trimethylphenol (TMP) frequently used as chemical probe or quencher due to its high reactivity 3DOM*. However, the influence of TMP-derived oxidation intermediates on target photochemical reactions has not been comprehensively examined. This study investigated TMP's effect photolysis sulfamethoxazole (SMX), common antibiotic found natural waters, presence different DOM sources model photosensitizer. Contrary expectation, TMP significantly accelerated SMX photolysis, extent enhancement depending and concentrations. Laser flash kinetic modeling suggested long-lived reactive species (TMP-RS), including phenoxyl radicals, semiquinone quinones, key factors this process. Unlike 3DOM*, TMP-RS may react formation non-SMX•+ intermediates. process prevents reduction SMX•+ subsequent regeneration SMX. The successfully predicts dynamic contributions various during reaction, highlighting critical TMP-RS. advances our understanding involvement triplet-state photochemistry suggests reconsideration RSs play transformation micropollutants.
