This study investigated the significant influence of HCO on the degradation of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) during nitrate photolysis at 254 nm for water reuse applications. The second-order rate constants for the reactions between selected contaminants with carbonate radical (CO) were determined at pH 8.8 and T = 20 °C: estrone ((5.3 ± 1.1) × 10 M s), bisphenol A ((2.8 ± 0.2) × 10 M s), 17α-ethynylestradiol ((1.6 ± 0.3) × 10 M s), triclosan ((4.2 ± 1.4) × 10 M s), diclofenac ((2.7 ± 0.7) × 10 M s), atrazine ((5.7 ± 0.1) × 10 M s), carbamazepine ((4.2 ± 0.01) × 10 M s), and ibuprofen ((1.2 ± 1.1) × 10 M s). Contributions from UV, reactive nitrogen species (RNS), hydroxyl radical (OH), and CO to the CEC decomposition in UV/NO in the presence and absence of HCO were investigated. In addition, possible transformation products and degradation pathways of triclosan, diclofenac, bisphenol A, and estrone in UV/NO/HCO were proposed based on the mass (MS) and MS spectra. Significant reduction in the cytotoxicity of bisphenol A was observed after the treatment with UV/NO/HCO.
本研究探讨了 HCO 在 254nm 下硝酸盐光解过程中对新兴污染物(CECs)降解的重要影响,以应用于水再利用。在 pH 8.8 和 T = 20°C 下,确定了选定污染物与碳酸根自由基(CO)之间反应的二级速率常数:雌酮((5.3 ± 1.1) × 10 M s),双酚 A((2.8 ± 0.2) × 10 M s),17α-乙炔基雌二醇((1.6 ± 0.3) × 10 M s),三氯生((4.2 ± 1.4) × 10 M s),二氯芬酸((2.7 ± 0.7) × 10 M s),莠去津((5.7 ± 0.1) × 10 M s),卡马西平((4.2 ± 0.01) × 10 M s)和布洛芬((1.2 ± 1.1) × 10 M s)。研究了在有和没有 HCO 的情况下,UV、活性氮物种(RNS)、羟基自由基(OH)和 CO 对 UV/NO 中 CEC 分解的贡献。此外,根据质量(MS)和 MS 谱,提出了三氯生、二氯芬酸、双酚 A 和雌酮在 UV/NO/HCO 中的可能转化产物和降解途径。在经过 UV/NO/HCO 处理后,双酚 A 的细胞毒性显著降低。
