Abstract
The catalytic performance of nano- in the sonoelectrochemical activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and ozone to remove aspirin (ASP) was studied for the first time. The crystal structure and Fe bonds in the catalyst were confirmed through XRD and FTIR analysis. Within 30 min, ASP (TOC) was removed by 99.2 % (81.6 %) and 98.6 % (77.4 %) in nano-/PMS and nano-/ sonoelectrochemical systems, respectively. Water anions, especially (almost 50 %), had an inhibitory effect on ASP removal. The probes confirmed that and were the key to ASP degradation in nano-/PMS and nano-/ systems, respectively. The effective activation of oxidants due to the ideal distribution of by catalyst was the main mechanism of ASP removal, in which electric current (EC) and ultrasound (US) played a crucial role through the recycling of Fe ions, dissolution and cleaning of the catalyst. LC-MS analysis identified thirteen byproducts in the ASP degradation pathways. The energy consumption of the proposed sonoelectrochemical systems was lower than previous similar systems. This study presented economic and sustainable hybrid systems for pharmaceutical wastewater remediation.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Contaminant Hydrology is an international journal publishing scientific articles pertaining to the contamination of subsurface water resources. Emphasis is placed on investigations of the physical, chemical, and biological processes influencing the behavior and fate of organic and inorganic contaminants in the unsaturated (vadose) and saturated (groundwater) zones, as well as at groundwater-surface water interfaces. The ecological impacts of contaminants transported both from and to aquifers are of interest. Articles on contamination of surface water only, without a link to groundwater, are out of the scope. Broad latitude is allowed in identifying contaminants of interest, and include legacy and emerging pollutants, nutrients, nanoparticles, pathogenic microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, viruses, protozoa), microplastics, and various constituents associated with energy production (e.g., methane, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide).
The journal''s scope embraces a wide range of topics including: experimental investigations of contaminant sorption, diffusion, transformation, volatilization and transport in the surface and subsurface; characterization of soil and aquifer properties only as they influence contaminant behavior; development and testing of mathematical models of contaminant behaviour; innovative techniques for restoration of contaminated sites; development of new tools or techniques for monitoring the extent of soil and groundwater contamination; transformation of contaminants in the hyporheic zone; effects of contaminants traversing the hyporheic zone on surface water and groundwater ecosystems; subsurface carbon sequestration and/or turnover; and migration of fluids associated with energy production into groundwater.
