Science Letters：Nitrogen doping of activated carbon loading Fe2O3 and activity in carbon-nitric oxide reaction

Nitrogen doping of activated carbon loading Fe2O3 was performed by annealing in ammonia, and the activity of the modified carbon for NO reduction was studied in the presence of oxygen. Results show that Fe2O3 enhances the amount of surface oxygen complexes and facilitates nitrogen incorporation in the carbon, especially in the form of pyridinic nitrogen. The modified carbon shows excellent activity for NO reduction in the low temperature regime (<500 °C) because of the cooperative effect of Fe2O3 and the surface nitrogen species.     

Rapid dechlorination of chlorinated organic compounds by nickel/iron bimetallic system in water

Detoxification of chlorinated organic compounds via reaction with nickel/iron powder was implemented in aqueous solution. Compared to iron, nickel/iron bimetallic powder had higher hydrodechlorination activities for both atrazine (ATR) and p-chlorophenol (pCP); nickel/iron (2.96%, w/w) was shown to have the largest specific surface area and the optimum proportion for the dechlorination of both ATR and pCP. Electrochemical measurements showed that the adsorbed hydrogen atom on the nickel must have been the dominant reductive agent for the dechlorination of both ATR andpCP in this system.     

Heterogeneous UV/Fenton catalytic degradation of wastewater containing phenol with Fe-Cu-Mn-Y catalyst

The heterogeneous UV/Fenton process with the appropriate amount of Fe-Mn-Cu-Y as catalyst was developed and various operation conditions for the degradation of phenol were evaluated. The results indicated that by using the heterogeneous UV/Fenton process, the CODcr removal rate reached almost 100% for wastewater containing phenol. Compared with the homogeneous process, the developed catalyst could be used at wider pH range in the UV/Fenton process. Comparison of various heterogeneous process showed that heterogeneous UV/Fenton process was best. The heterogeneous UV/Fenton process with Fe-Mn-Cu-Y catalyst is highly efficient in degrading various organic pollutants.     

Heterogeneous UV/Fenton catalytic degradation of wastewater containing phenol with Fe-Cu-Mn-Y catalyst

INTRODUCTION For the degradation of high concentration wast- ewater with toxic and non-biodegradable pollutants, the UV/Fenton method has been proposed in recent years (Braun et al., 1991; Bossmann et al., 1998). The UV/Fenton system relies mainly on oxidative degradation reactions, where organic radicals are generated by photolysis of the organic substrate or by reaction with hydroxyl radicals. These radical intermediates are subsequently trapped by dissolved molecular oxygen and lea…     

Fe salts as catalyst for the wet oxidation of o-chlorophenol

INTRODUCTION Chlorophenols (CPs) are chemicals widely used in industry to manufacture insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, biocides, and dye, are also found in the effluent of the pulp and paper mill industry, and are mainly man-made compounds, and have been recog-nized as organic pollutants of air, groundwater, soil and sediments. They are carcinogenic and stable in water. Most chlorophenols are listed as priority pol-lutants by the US Environmental Protection Agency (1988) due to th…     

高压水解处理氧化乐果废水研究

The effect of pressure on the hydrolysis rates and the degradation kinetics of environmentally persistent omethoate pesticide was studied. The results showed that the values of kobs increased and the values of activation volume (AV) decreased with increasing pressure. Among pH conditions (3.58, 6.01 and 8.5), pH 8.5 was found to be the unstable condition and its half-life was reduced from 263 min at 1 atm to 19.37 min at 10 atm. These results describe that high-pressure hydrolysis is a useful technique for the conversion of toxic organic phosphorus into inorganic phosphorus.

Catalytic dechlorination and detoxification of 1-（2-chlorophenyl） ethanol by Pd/Fe

1-（2-chlorophenyl） ethanol （CPE） is of health and environmental concern due to its toxicity and its use as an intermediate in pharmaceutical manufacturing. The current work deals with the catalytic reductive dechlorination and detoxification of CPE by Pd/Fe bimetal. CPE was effectively dechlorinated to l-phenyl ethanol （PE） accompanied by the equivalent release of chloride. The extent of CPE dechlorination increased with temperature, Fe dosage and Pd loading. A decrease in solution pH increased CPE dechlorination, resulting presumably from an increase in hydrogen production. Under the specific conditions of 20 g/L Pd/Fe, 0.10% Pd （w/w） and initial pH 5-6, the CPE dechlorination was completed within 145 rain. The dechlorination followed a pseudo-first-order kinetics with an activation energy of 56.7 kJ/mol. The results of toxicity testing showed that CPE was very toxic to Chlorella, whereas PE showed little toxicity. The toxicity of the reaction solution declined gradually and the promoting effects on Chlorella intensified consequently with the dechlorination process. Thus, the reductive dechlorination of CPE to PE by Pd/Fe was a detoxification process. It may be used to effectively reduce the toxicological effects of CPE-contaminated wastewater, thereby enhancing the performance of subsequent biological processes in wastewater treatment.
