CoO-3D ordered mesoporous carbon nitride (CoO@mpgCN) composite as peroxymonosulfate activator for the degradation of sulfamethoxazole in water

Thanh Binh Nguyen et al.

Summary: The CoO@mpgCN/PMS system showed high catalytic reactivity and SMX removal efficiency over a wide pH range, with stable and consistent degradation capacity for at least five consecutive cycles. The significant catalysis performance was attributed to the uniformly distributed mesopores, large specific surface area, and high electron transfer ability of CoO@mpgCN at the active CoO sites, leading to a radical chain reaction mechanism for SMX degradation.
