Abstract
Background
Copper (Cu2+) and antibiotics are common and co-existing pollutants in wastewater from livestock and poultry farms.
Methods
Magnetic porous carbon (FeXZn@BC) with different iron contents was prepared by one-step using zinc chloride and ferric chloride as modifiers. Tetracycline (TC) and Cu2+ as target pollutants were used to investigate the adsorption properties of FeXZn@BC. Additionlly, the degradation performances of FeXZn@BC activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and iodide (IO4−) on TC degradation were further investigated.
Significant Findings
The order of the adsorption capacities of the adsorbents for TC was (mmol·g−1): Fe2Zn@BC (1.39) > Fe5Zn@BC (1.09) > Fe10Zn@BC (1.03) > BC (0.03), and for Cu2+ was (mmol·g−1): Fe2Zn@BC (1.93) > Zn@BC (1.39) > Fe5Zn@BC (1.29) > Fe10Zn@BC (1.00) > BC (0.28). The FeXZn@BC also could catalyze PMS for TC degradation, and the removal of TC by PMS could be strengthened in the presence of Cu2+. Dynamic experiments on the removal of TC in water using Fe2Zn@BC were conducted, and the effects of PMS and Cu2+ on the dynamic experiments of TC removal were investigated. This study provides a new perspective on the co-removal of antibiotics and heavy metals Cu2+.
