Enhanced degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid by pre-magnetization Fe-C activated persulfate: Influential factors, mechanism and degradation pathway.
Journal of Hazardous Materials 2018 July 6
2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is one of the most applicable herbicides in the world, its residue in aquatic environment threatens the human health and ecosystems. In this study, for the first time, inexpensive Fe-C after pre-magnetization (Pre-Fe-C) was used as the heterogeneous catalyst to activate persulfate (PS) for 2,4-D degradation, proving that Pre-Fe-C could significantly improve the degradation and dechlorination. The results indicated the stability and reusability of Pre-Fe-C were much better than pre-magnetization Fe0 (Pre-Fe0 ), while the leaching iron ion was lower, indicating that using Pre-Fe-C not only reduced the post-treatment cost, but also enhanced the removal and dechlorination efficiency of 2,4-D. Several important parameters including initial pH, Fe-C dosage, PS concentration affecting 2,4-D degradation and dechlorination by Pre-Fe-C/PS were investigated and compared with that of Fe-C/PS, observing a 1.2-2.7 fold enhancement in the degradation rate of 2,4-D. The Fe-C and Pre-Fe-C were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and SEM-EDX-mapping, suggesting that the content of Fe and O changed more obviously after magnetization. The degradation intermediates, such as chloroquinol, 2-chlorophenol, were identified by a gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and an ion chromatography (IC), and a possible degradation pathway was proposed.
