S(IV)-based advanced oxidation process has been applied for contaminants remediation. However, as a traditional source of sulfite (SO), NaSO is extremely soluble in water, resulting in a high concentration of SO to quench the generated reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this work, CaSO was introduced instead of NaSO for its slow-released SO ability and Fe(III)/CaSO system was established for the removal of trichloroethylene (TCE) and other organic contaminants. The degradation efficiency of TCE reached 94.0% and TCE could be completely dechlorinated and mineralized, while the removal of other contaminants was all over 85.0% at the optimal tested conditions. Through EPR detection, ROS scavenging and probe tests, and quantification of ROS amounts, it was concluded that the dominant ROS in Fe(III)/CaSO system were SO· and O, of which the transformation mechanism of SO· to O was revealed and demonstrated comprehensively. The synergistic contaminants degradation performance in different sulfur-iron-containing systems and in the presence of oxidants was evaluated. The effects of various solution conditions were assessed and Fe(III)/CaSO system was of higher resistance on complex solution matrixes, suggesting the broad-spectrum and application perspective for the remediation of complex contaminants in actual water.
基于 S(IV) 的高级氧化工艺已被应用于污染物的修复。然而,作为亚硫酸盐(SO)的传统来源,NaSO 极易溶于水,导致 SO 浓度过高,从而猝灭生成的活性氧物质(ROS)。在这项工作中,引入 CaSO 代替 NaSO,利用其缓慢释放 SO 的能力,并建立 Fe(III)/CaSO 体系,以去除三氯乙烯(TCE)和其他有机污染物。在最佳测试条件下,TCE 的降解效率达到 94.0%,TCE 可完全脱氯和矿化,而其他污染物的去除率均超过 85.0%。通过 EPR 检测、ROS 清除和探针测试以及 ROS 量的定量分析,得出 Fe(III)/CaSO 体系中的主要 ROS 为 SO·和 O,其中揭示并全面论证了 SO·向 O 的转化机制。评估了不同含硫-铁体系和氧化剂存在下协同污染物降解性能。评估了各种溶液条件的影响,Fe(III)/CaSO 体系对复杂溶液基质具有更高的抵抗力,这表明该体系在实际水体中修复复杂污染物具有广谱性和应用前景。
