Abstract

Molecular oxygen (O₂) is an environmentally friendly, cost-effective, and non-toxic oxidant. Activation of O₂ generates various highly oxidative reactive oxygen species (ROS), which efficiently degrade pollutants with minimal environmental impact. Despite extensive research on the application of O₂ activation in environmental remediation, a comprehensive review addressing this topic is currently lacking. This review provides an informative overview of recent advancements in O₂ activation, focusing on three primary strategies: photocatalytic activation, chemical activation, and electrochemical activation of O₂. We elucidate the respective mechanisms of these activation methods and discuss their advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, we thoroughly analyze the influence of oxygen supply, reactive temperature, and pH on the O₂ activation process. From electron transfer and energy transfer perspectives, we explore the pathways for ROS generation during O₂ activation. Finally, we address the challenges faced by researchers in this field and discuss future prospects for utilizing O₂ activation in pollution control applications. This detailed analysis enhances our understanding and provides valuable insights for the practical implementation of organic pollutant degradation.

应用分子氧降解有机污染物：战略、机制和前景

分子氧（O2）是一种环保、经济、无毒的氧化剂。活化 O2 会产生各种高氧化性活性氧（ROS），从而有效降解污染物，并将对环境的影响降至最低。尽管对氧气活化在环境修复中的应用进行了广泛的研究，但目前还缺乏针对这一主题的全面综述。本综述翔实地概述了氧气活化的最新进展，重点关注三种主要策略：光催化活化、化学活化和氧气的电化学活化。我们阐明了这些活化方法各自的机理，并讨论了它们的优缺点。此外，我们还深入分析了氧气供应、反应温度和 pH 值对 O2 活化过程的影响。从电子传递和能量转移的角度，我们探讨了氧气活化过程中产生 ROS 的途径。最后，我们探讨了研究人员在这一领域面临的挑战，并讨论了在污染控制应用中利用氧气活化的未来前景。这些详细的分析加深了我们的理解，并为有机污染物降解的实际应用提供了宝贵的见解。
