In this study, we investigated the impact of the two-step sulfidation method on the physicochemical properties and reactivity of magnetite with trichloroethene (TCE). We systematically evaluated the effect of different sulfur precursors (dithionite, thiosulfate, and sulfide) and sulfur-to-iron ([S/Fe]<sub>dosed</sub>) molar ratios on the reactivity. Results were compared to those of sulfidated nZVI (S-nZVI) as a benchmark for assessing the efficacy of sulfidated magnetite (S–Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>). The findings indicated limited reactivity of magnetite when sulfidated with dithionite and thiosulfate. However, sulfidation with sulfide yielded reaction rates comparable to those of S-nZVI, particularly at lower [S/Fe]<sub>dosed</sub> ratios. At higher [S/Fe]<sub>dosed</sub> ratios (>0.1), sulfide-sulfidated magnetite (S–Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4_S</sub>) exhibited reaction rates surpassing those of S-nZVI, with the major dechlorination product being acetylene. Nonetheless, reusability experiments demonstrated that the performance of S–Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> diminished with aging. These results show that S–Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4_S</sub> achieved complete transformation of TCE to acetylene, with reaction rates comparable to S-nZVI. Given its lower cost of production, engineered S–Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4_S</sub> remediation systems could serve as a more affordable alternative for in situ chemical reduction of TCE with further research and development.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"133 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143083987","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}

However, hydrolysis of PFCs, such as CF<sub>4</sub>, usually suffers from a drastic activity decline during the induction period, which seriously hinders its conversion performances and practical applications. In this work, we found that the carbonaceous (*COO) species account for the activity decline during the induction period, and their detoxification could promote PFC hydrolysis at low temperature. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) shows that the poisoning signals belong to *COO species on the surface of γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> during CF<sub>4</sub> catalytic hydrolysis. The adsorption configuration of *CFOH intermediate is the key to the formation of poisoned *COO species. By introducing Ni sites with strong *CFOH adsorption capacity into γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, the *CFOH at the Al active site can transfer to the adjacent Ni site to avoid the formation of poisoned *COO species, which was proved by DRIFTS and density functional theory. As a result, the optimal 0.1Ni/γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> (10% Ni loaded γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) catalyst achieved 100% CF<sub>4</sub> conversion without any activity decline at 570 °C for over 300 h, much higher than that of ∼55% CF<sub>4</sub> conversion on pure γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> at the same temperature. This work provides new insights into the detoxification of thermocatalytic PFC hydrolysis at low temperatures.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143083988","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}

This study introduces an advanced source apportionment pipeline (RX model) that uniquely combines computer-controlled scanning electron microscopy with computer vision and machine learning to trace particle sources by integrating single-particle morphology, size, and chemical information. In the evaluation using a virtual data set with known source contributions, the RX model demonstrated high accuracy, with average errors of 0.60% for particle number and 1.97% for mass contribution. Compared to the chemical mass balance model, the RX model’s accuracy and stability improved by 75.6 and 73.4%, respectively, and proved effective in tracing Fe-containing particles in the atmosphere of a steel city in China. This study indicates that particle morphology can serve as an effective feature for determining its source.

It has traditionally been believed that the reduction of Cr(VI) can only occur through interaction with traditional reducing agents like natural organic matters (NOMs) and Fe(II), with H<sub>2</sub>O merely acting as a solvent. However, this study reveals that visible light can induce the reduction of Cr(VI) by H<sub>2</sub>O even without conventional reducing agents. Specifically, within the narrow liquid-like layer between ice crystals, there is a significant increase in concentrations of protons, Cr(VI), and anions (Cl<sup>–</sup>, SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2–</sup>, and NO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup>), which promotes the formation of various complexes between Cr(VI) and anions. DFT results reveal 11 types of stable Cr(VI)-anion complexes in solution, with six exhibiting visible light absorption properties. Quadrupole time-of-flight (QTOF) mass spectrometry confirms that the abundance of these six complexes (Cl–CrO<sub>2</sub>–Cl, Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>6</sub>–Cl, Cl–Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>–Cl, Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>6</sub>–OSO<sub>3</sub>H, HO<sub>3</sub>SO–Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>–OSO<sub>3</sub>H, and Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>6</sub>–ONO<sub>2</sub>) correlates with the extent to which visible light promotes Cr(VI) reduction, thus highlighting their crucial role as photoreactive intermediate complexes during this conversion process.

This approach successfully describes transport when repulsive barriers to attachment are absent. However, repulsive barriers characterize environmental contexts wherein attachment upon grain interception is inhibited, causing colloid concentrations to decay nonexponentially with distance from the source and thwarting prediction. The pervasiveness of these nonexponential trends across wide-ranging experiments suggests that a fundamental process is at play. Here, we propose a paradigm shift by considering constant fractional loss with each interception rather than with each grain passed. We show that by recognizing the history of grain interceptions, a pathway is revealed toward a simple and predictive framework in which nonexponential trends emerge. This shift in perspective offers the possibility of colloid transport prediction in settings that were previously infeasible using classic filtration theory, with potential applications in contexts ranging from environmental (e.g., groundwater aquifer protection) to biomedical (e.g., drug delivery).","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"61 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143083990","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}
