Abstract
- Peroxymonosulfate (PMS)-based advanced oxidation processes for wastewater treatment have received extensive attention in the past years. Here, a novel Mn, Ce co-modified g-C 3 N 4 (MnCe-CN) composite was successfully synthesized by one-step pyrolysis for activating PMS. The physical and chemical characterization of MnCe-CN/PMS was conducted, indicating that Mn and Ce were evenly distributed on g-C 3 N 4 and existed in the form of Mn-N structure and CeO 2 , respectively. The MnCe-CN/PMS system could effectively degrade pollutants such as acetaminophen (ACT), methylparaben (MeP), p -nitrophenol (PNP), and 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP). Among them, 2,4-DCP could be rapidly degraded, reaching 100% within 30 min. The masking experiments and electrochemical testing results revealed that 2,4-DCP was degraded via superoxide radicals (O 2 ˙ˉ), singlet oxygen (1O 2), and electron transfer path. The cyclic experiments and real water treatment experiments testified that the oxidative system had excellent stability and applicability. This study provides a facile synthetic method to fabricate bimetallic co-modified g-C 3 N 4 for the enhancement of PMS activation. [Display omitted] • A facile synthesis way for Mn and Ce co-modified g-C 3 N 4 was developed. • Mn(Ⅱ)/Mn(Ⅲ) in the N-pot was proved to be the main active site. • The MnCe-CN composites had excellent stability and applicability. • O 2 ˙ˉ, 1O 2 played a major role in the degradation of 2,4-DCP.
