Developing novel bifunctional materials to high efficiently degrade organic pollutants and eliminate hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) is significantly desired in the wastewater treatment field. The porous boron nitride (p-BN) was fabricated by a two-stage calcination strategy and was innovatively employed to support zero-valent iron (ZVI), achieving the bifunctional material (p-BN@ZVI) to degrade carbamazepine (CBZ) and eliminate Cr (VI). p-BN@ZVI could degrade more than 98% CBZ in 6 min with the high apparent first-order constant (k) of 0.536 min, almost 5 times higher than that of the ZVI/PMS system and outperformed most previous reported ZVI supported catalysts, which was mainly ascribed to the fact that the introduction of p-BN with high surface area (793.97 m/g) improved the dispersion of ZVI and exposed more active sites. Quenching tests coupled with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) suggested that •OH was the major reactive oxygen species with a contribution of 71.6%. Notably, the p-BN@ZVI/PMS system expressed low activation energy of 8.23 kJ/mol and reached a 65.69% TOC degradation in 20 min even at 0 °C. p-BN@ZVI possessed remarkable storage stability and could still degrade 92.3% CBZ despite three-month storage. More interestingly, p-BN@ZVI was capable to eliminate 98.1% of 50 mg/L Cr (VI) within 5 min through adsorption and reduction, where nearly 80% Cr (VI) was transformed to Cr (III), and exhibited the maximum Cr (VI) elimination capacity of 349 mg/g. This study provides new insights into the efficient organic contaminants degradation and Cr (VI) elimination in the treatment of wastewater.
开发新型双功能材料以高效降解有机污染物和去除六价铬(Cr(VI))在废水处理领域具有重要意义。本文通过两步煅烧策略制备了多孔氮化硼(p-BN),并创新性地将其用于负载零价铁(ZVI),得到了双功能材料(p-BN@ZVI),用于降解卡马西平(CBZ)和去除 Cr(VI)。p-BN@ZVI 可在 6 min 内将 CBZ 降解超过 98%,表观一级反应速率常数(k)高达 0.536 min,几乎是 ZVI/PMS 体系的 5 倍,优于大多数先前报道的 ZVI 负载催化剂,这主要归因于高比表面积(793.97 m/g)的 p-BN 的引入提高了 ZVI 的分散性并暴露出更多的活性位点。淬灭实验结合电子顺磁共振(EPR)表明,•OH 是主要的活性氧物种,贡献了 71.6%。值得注意的是,p-BN@ZVI/PMS 体系在 0°C 下的活化能仅为 8.23 kJ/mol,20 min 内TOC 降解率达到 65.69%。p-BN@ZVI 具有良好的储存稳定性,即使经过三个月的储存,仍能降解 92.3%的 CBZ。更有趣的是,p-BN@ZVI 可在 5 min 内通过吸附和还原去除 50 mg/L 的 98.1%Cr(VI),其中近 80%的 Cr(VI)被转化为 Cr(III),并表现出 349 mg/g 的最大 Cr(VI)去除容量。本研究为高效处理废水中的有机污染物降解和 Cr(VI)去除提供了新的思路。
