Therefore, achieving the simultaneous removal of phosphates and organic matter from water bodies is significant. This study reports an excellent Fe₃Ce₁Oₓ(CA) functional material synthesized via a simple one-step co-precipitation method for hydroquinone (HQ) degradation through a Fenton-like reaction while simultaneously adsorbing phosphate. Experimental results show that the Fe₃Ce₁Oₓ(CA) materials exhibit a 92 % HQ degradation efficiency and an 80 % phosphate adsorption efficiency. Systematic characterization confirms that the Fe–Ce synergistic effect enhances the Fe(II) content, significantly promoting H₂O₂ activation. Electron paramagnetic resonance and radical scavenger experiments reveal that ¹O₂, O₂<sup>•</sup>⁻, and •OH play essential roles in organic degradation, with •OH being the dominant reactive species. Introducing citric acid increases the Ce(III) content in the Fe–Ce bimetallic oxide composite, enhancing its phosphate adsorption performance. This material successfully achieves both HQ degradation and phosphate removal, and these findings suggest that the Fe₃Ce₁Oₓ(CA)/H₂O₂ system can potentially treat wastewater with combined organic and phosphate pollution.

However, inadequate recycling of this slag may lead to significant environmental degradation and pose serious risks to human health. In this study, an innovative suspended magnetization roasting-magnetic separation (SR-MS) process is proposed for the efficient recovery of iron from sulfuric acid slag. The iron phase transformation behavior of the slag in the reduction/magnetization process was systematically investigated through thermodynamic analysis. Key process parameters were optimized to achieve enhanced iron recovery efficiency, yielding optimal experimental conditions and high-quality iron-rich products. When the calcination temperature was 525 °C, the reducing agent concentration was 30 % (CO:H<sub>2</sub>=1:3), the roasting time was 20 min, and the magnetic separator field intensity was 1200 Oe, the concentrate iron grade was 63.24 % and the iron recovery rate was 92.20 %. Under a calcination condition of 525 °C, with reducing agent dosage maintained at 30 % (CO:H<sub>2</sub>=1:3) and roasting duration fixed at 20 min, magnetic separation conducted under 1200 Oe field strength yielded concentrate with 63.24 % Fe content alongside 92.20 % metal recovery. The mechanism was studied by chemical multi-element analysis, phase analysis, VSM analysis and SEM analysis of the slag samples in each stage of the suspension magnetization roasting-magnetic separation (SR-MS) process. It was found that through suspension magnetization roasting (SMR) pretreatment, hematite almost transformed into magnetite with greater magnetism, and microscopic morphology observation revealed significant changes on its mineral surface. The Suspension Magnetization Roasting (SMR) technique not only modifies the physicochemical surface properties of materials, but more significantly induces microstructural reorganization through crack propagation and pore evolution mechanisms. This structural transformation substantially enhances pore distribution characteristics, manifesting as measurable expansion in specific surface area and stepwise increase in total pore volume. The demonstrated that the raw slag is transformed into magnetite. The phase transition from hematite to magnetite during roasting was confirmed through FT-IR spectroscopic analysis. These findings provide critical insights for advancing research and development in sustainable iron resource recycling and innovative solid waste disposal technologies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20743,"journal":{"name":"Process Safety and Environmental Protection","volume":"199 ","pages":"Article 107321"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144070645","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"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}
