负载型颗粒活性炭催化过硫酸钠氧化降解橙黄G

通过在颗粒活性炭(GAC)上负载氧化铁,并以此作为催化剂(Fe/GAC)在常温常压下催化过硫酸钠(PS)产生硫酸根自由基降解偶氮染料橙黄G。研究了体系pH、氧化剂浓度、催化剂浓度对橙黄G去除率的影响,并且对催化剂的重复使用性能进行了测试。结果表明,在Fe/GAC/PS体系中,[OG]0=0.2 mmol/L,[GAC]=1 g/L,[PS]0=2 mmol/L,降解2 h后OG去除率为99%,且有较高的矿化率;随着氧化剂浓度和催化剂浓度的增加,OG的去除效率提高;催化剂有较好的重复使用性。利用扫描电镜(SEM)对催化剂进行了表征,可以看出在活性炭上成功负载氧化铁。利用化学分子探针竞争实验鉴定催化反应中的活性物种SO4-·和OH·。     

Enhanced stability of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of subsurface solids

The stabilization of hydrogen peroxide was investigated as a basis for enhancing its downgradient transport and contact with contaminants during catalyzed H(2)O(2) propagations (CHP) in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO). Stabilization of hydrogen peroxide was investigated in slurries containing four characterized subsurface solids using phytate, citrate, and malonate as stabilizing agents after screening ten potential stabilizers. The extent of hydrogen peroxide stabilization and the most effective stabilizer were solid-specific; however, phytate was usually the most effective stabilizer, increasing the hydrogen peroxide half-life to as much as 50 times. The degree of stabilization was nearly as effective at 10 mM concentrations as at 250 mM or 1 M concentrations. The effect of stabilization on relative rates of hydroxyl radical activity varied between the subsurface solids, but citrate and malonate generally had a greater positive effect than phytate. The effect of phytate, citrate, and malonate on the relative rates of superoxide generation was minimal to somewhat negative, depending on the solid. The results of this research demonstrate that the stabilizers phytate, citrate, and malonate can significantly increase the half-life of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of subsurface solids during CHP reactions while maintaining a significant portion of the reactive oxygen species activity. Use of these stabilizers in the field will likely improve the delivery of hydrogen peroxide and downgradient treatment during CHP ISCO.
