The ferrihydrite-catalyzed heterogeneous photo-Fenton reaction shows great potential for environmental remediation of fluoroquinolone (FQs) antibiotics. The degradation of enoxacin, a model of FQ antibiotics, was studied by a batch experiment and theoretical calculation. The results revealed that the degradation efficiency of enoxacin reached 89.7% at pH 3. The hydroxyl radical (∙OH) had a significant impact on the degradation process, with a cumulative concentration of 43.9 μmol L at pH 3. Photogenerated holes and electrons participated in the generation of ∙OH. Eleven degradation products of enoxacin were identified, with the main degradation pathways being defluorination, quinolone ring and piperazine ring cleavage and oxidation. These findings indicate that the ferrihydrite-catalyzed photo-Fenton process is a valid way for treating water contaminated with FQ antibiotics.
水铁矿催化的非均相光芬顿反应在环境修复氟喹诺酮(FQs)抗生素方面显示出巨大潜力。通过批量实验和理论计算研究了作为FQ抗生素模型的依诺沙星的降解情况。结果表明,在pH值为3时,依诺沙星的降解效率达到89.7%。羟基自由基(∙OH)对降解过程有显著影响,在pH值为3时其累积浓度为43.9 μmol/L。光生空穴和电子参与了∙OH的生成。鉴定出了依诺沙星的11种降解产物,主要降解途径为脱氟、喹诺酮环和哌嗪环裂解及氧化。这些发现表明,水铁矿催化的光芬顿过程是处理受FQ抗生素污染水的有效方法。
