Biochar loading mixed-phase iron oxide shows great advantages as a promising catalyst owing to its eco-friendliness and low cost. Here, γ-FeO@biochar (E/Fe-N-BC) composite was successfully prepared by the sol-gel method combined with low-temperature (280 °C) reduction. The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) result indicated that γ-FeO particles with the size of approximately 200 nm were well-dispersed on the surface of biochar. The CO derived from biomass pyrolysis is the main reducing component for the generation of Fe (II). The high content of Fe (II) contributed to the excellent catalytic performance of E/Fe-N-BC for quinclorac (QNC) degradation in the presence of peroxymonosulfate (PMS). The removal efficiency of 10 mg/L of QNC was 100% within 30 min using 0.3 g/L γ-FeO@biochar catalyst and 0.8 mM PMS. The radical quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance analysis confirmed that •OH and SO• were the main radicals during the degradation of QNC. The facile and easily mass-production of γ-FeO@biochar with high catalytic activity make it a promising catalyst to activate PMS for the removal of organic pollutants.
负载混合相氧化铁的生物炭作为一种有前途的催化剂具有很大的优势,因为它具有环保和低成本的特点。在这里,通过溶胶-凝胶法结合低温(280°C)还原成功制备了γ-FeO@生物炭(E/Fe-N-BC)复合材料。扫描电子显微镜(SEM)结果表明,尺寸约为 200nm 的γ-FeO 颗粒均匀分散在生物炭表面。生物质热解产生的 CO 是生成 Fe(II)的主要还原成分。高含量的 Fe(II)有助于 E/Fe-N-BC 在过一硫酸盐(PMS)存在下对氯喹酸(QNC)的高效催化降解。在 0.3g/Lγ-FeO@生物炭催化剂和 0.8mM PMS 的条件下,10mg/L 的 QNC 在 30min 内的去除率达到 100%。自由基猝灭实验和电子顺磁共振分析证实,在 QNC 的降解过程中,•OH 和 SO•是主要的自由基。γ-FeO@生物炭具有制备简单、易于大规模生产和高催化活性等特点,有望成为一种有前途的催化剂,用于激活过一硫酸盐去除有机污染物。
