In this study, we demonstrated highly efficient reduction of bromate, a harmful disinfection byproduct, by coupling ARPs with an iron nanoparticles-intercalated graphene oxide (GO@FeNPs) catalytic membrane. In the presence of 1.0 mM sulfite (S(IV)), the GO@FeNPs membrane/S(IV) system achieved nearly complete removal of 80 μg/L bromate in 3 min. The first-order reaction rate constant for bromate removal in this system was 420 ± 42 min<sup>–1</sup>, up to 5 orders of magnitude faster than previously reported ARPs. The GO@FeNPs catalytic membrane may offer potential advantages of nanoconfinement and facilitated electron shuttling in addition to the high surface area of the fine FeNPs, leading to the remarkable ARP performance. The GO@FeNPs membrane showed excellent stability, maintaining >97.0% bromate removal over 20 cycles of repeated runs. The membrane can also be applied for fast catalytic reduction of other oxyanions, showing >98.0% removal of nitrate and chlorate. This work may present a viable option for utilizing high-performance reductive catalytic membranes for water decontamination.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2024-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142325694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find topological behavior in AA-stacked Sb<sub>2</sub>Te<sub>3</sub>, as in the ABC-stacked case, but the carrier pockets are distinctly different from those in the ABC-stacked case. While the electronic structure near the band edges remains three-dimensional with the AA-stacked Sb<sub>2</sub>Te<sub>3</sub>, it is less so than in the ABC case, particularly for n-type. The band structure shows a Kane band shape in the in-plane direction, with a small band gap and small effective masses. We find an unusual combination of low in-plane effective mass and relatively high optical absorption. This combination is a sought-after feature for infrared detection.

Anion redox cathodes improve the energy density of current lithium and sodium secondary batteries owing to their ability to charge compensate mobile cation insertion/extraction through changing the oxidation state of the anion in addition to a transition-metal species. Although the true mechanism through which anion charge compensation occurs has not been fully elucidated, materials that exhibit this phenomenon have recently become the topic of intense interest given their potential to help improve the energy density of secondary batteries beyond current capabilities. Anion close-packed structures and high-valent transition metals are confirmed to be key attributes for enabling anion redox in these materials.","PeriodicalId":61,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Physical Chemistry C","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.126,"publicationDate":"2024-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142325796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we uncover the impact of six metal ions (i.e., Ca<sup>2+</sup>, Mg<sup>2+</sup>, Ni<sup>2+</sup>, Zn<sup>2+</sup>, Al<sup>3+</sup>, and Sc<sup>3+</sup>) presenting in water environments on Mn(VII) activity. These ions uniformly boost the electron and oxygen transfer capabilities of Mn(VII) while impeding proton transfer, as evidenced by electrochemical tests, thioanisole probe analysis, and the kinetic isotope effect. The observed effects are intricately linked to the Lewis acidity of the metal ions. Further mechanistic insights reveal that Mn(VII) can interact with metal ions without direct reduction. Such interactions modify the electronic configuration of Mn(VII) and create an acidic microenvironment, thus increasing its electrophilicity and the energy barrier for the abstraction of proton from organic substrates. More importantly, the efficacy of Mn(VII) in removing phenolic pollutants is regulated by these ions through changing the driving force for proton and electron transfer, i.e., facilitated at pH > 4.5 and inhibited at lower pH. The contribution of active Mn intermediates is also discussed to reveal the oxidative mechanism of the metal ion/Mn(VII) system. These findings not only facilitate the rational design of Mn(VII) oxidation conditions in the presence of metal ions for water decontamination but also offer an alternative paradigm for enhancing electrophilic oxidation.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2024-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142325696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
