Abstract
Simultaneous organic pollutant oxidation and heavy metal ion reduction may enhance ocean and medical wastewater treatment. Here a self-cycling piezo-photocatalytic Fenton (SPF) system was developed using an Na-Sm bimetal-doped layered ferroelectric perovskite SrBi2Nb2O9 (NS-SBNO) and Fe2+ ions. The experimental results and density functional theory calculations demonstrated that bimetal doping induced an enhanced internal electric field, improving electron–hole pair separation and transmission. NS-SBNO exhibited increased adsorption energy and electron transfer capacity of H2O, leading to H2O2 production at 497 μmol g−1 h−1 through a two-electron water oxidation reaction without any sacrificial reagent. Furthermore, compared with traditional Fenton systems, the SPF system afforded higher Fe2+/Fe3+ interconversion efficiency and hydroxyl and superoxide radical yields, highlighting the system’s excellent redox capabilities. The SPF system also demonstrated enhanced oxidation and reduction of complex pollutants in wastewater [e.g., BPA, TC, 2, 4-DCP, NOR, LVX, U(VI), and Cr(VI)], demonstrating promising practical applicability.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Hazardous Materials serves as a global platform for promoting cutting-edge research in the field of Environmental Science and Engineering. Our publication features a wide range of articles, including full-length research papers, review articles, and perspectives, with the aim of enhancing our understanding of the dangers and risks associated with various materials concerning public health and the environment. It is important to note that the term "environmental contaminants" refers specifically to substances that pose hazardous effects through contamination, while excluding those that do not have such impacts on the environment or human health. Moreover, we emphasize the distinction between wastes and hazardous materials in order to provide further clarity on the scope of the journal. We have a keen interest in exploring specific compounds and microbial agents that have adverse effects on the environment.
