Fe-MOFs with FeSO4•7H2O and FeCl3•6H2O precursors were successfully prepared using the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma method to regulate Fe(II)/Fe(III) ratios, exhibiting excellent stability and reusability during degradation processes. Fe(II) and Fe(III) had a synergistic effect in the plasma/Fenton-like system, leading to high catalytic activity and efficient degradation of pollutants.
Fe-MOFs with FeSO4 center dot 7H(2)O and FeCl3 center dot 6H(2)O precursor were successfully prepared by dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma method to regulate the Fe(II)/Fe(III) ratios. Different Fe(II)/Fe(III) ratios of Fe-MOFs were studied to reveal the catalytic mechanism of degradation in DBD plasma/Fenton-like system. Herein, for the first time, Fe-MOFs could be transformed between Fe(II) unsaturated metal sites (CUS) and Fe(III)CUS by the photo-generated electron (e(-)) generated with plasma, thereby promoting Fe(II)/Fe(III) cycle. The similar ratio of Fe(II) and Fe(III) in the fresh and used Fe-MOF-4 might account for the high catalytic activity and indicated the existence of a certain electronic cycle. In addition, Fe(II) and Fe(III) had synergistic effect in plasma/Fenton-like system and the degradation rate of 200 mL (200 mg/L) methyl orange (MO) reached 99.2 % at 6 min. Through free radical capture experiments, the reaction mechanism of the plasma/Fenton-like catalytic degradation process was deduced mainly as the coordinated oxidation process of hydroxyl radicals (center dot OH), photo-generated holes (h(+)) and superoxide radicals (center dot O-2(-)). More importantly, the Fe-MOFs showed excellent stability and reusability during degradation processes for six cycles.
