摘要
An innovative Fe–N co-coupled catalyst MN-2 was prepared from waste spirulina by co-pyrolysis as a highly active carbon-based catalyst for the activation of peroxydisulfate (PDS) for the degradation of sulfathiazole (ST). The protein-rich raw material Spirulina provided sufficient N during the pyrolysis process, thus achieving N doping without an additional nitrogen source, optimizing the interlayer structure of the biochar material and effectively inhibiting the leaching of the ligand metal Fe. MN-2 showed highly efficient catalytic activity for peroxydisulfate (PDS), with a degradation efficiency of 100% for ST within 30 min and a kinetic constant (kobs) reached 0.306 min−1, benefiting from the excellent adsorption ability of MN-2 forming MN-2-PDS* complexes and the electron transfer process generated by Fe3+ and Fe2+ cycling, oxygen-containing functional groups. The effects of PDS dosage, initial pH and coexisting anions on the oxidation process were also investigated. Free radical quenching, electron paramagnetic resonance and electrochemical measurements were employed to explain the hydroxyl (·OH) and sulfate (SO4·−) as the dominant active species and the electron transfer effect on the removal of ST. MN-2 maintained a ST removal rate of 84% after four recycling experiments, showing a high reusability performance. This work provides a simple way to prepare magnetized N-doped biochar, a novel catalyst (MN-2) for efficient activation of PDS for ST degradation, and a feasible method for removing sulfanilamide antibiotics in water environment. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd
