In this study, Mn2O3 synthesized from Mn-MIL-100 was used as an efficient PMS activator for Rhodamine B (RhB) removal in water. The prepared Mn2O3 exhibited better PMS activation efficiency than other manganese compounds. Under certain conditions, the highest RhB degradation and COD removal efficiencies reached 98.2% and 72.15% respectively. The potential application of PMS activation by Mn2O3 in the treatment of non-or hard-biodegradable wastewater was suggested.
In this work, Mn2O3 synthesized from Mn-MIL-100 was used as an efficient PMS activator for Rhodamine B (RhB) removal in water. The materials were characterized by XRD, FITR, SEM, EDX, and BET analyses. Results showed that the prepared Mn2O3 had better PMS activation efficiency than Mn2+, Mn3O4, MnO2, and commercial Mn2O3. In RhB removal, the highest RhB degradation and COD removal efficiencies reached 98.2% and 72.15%, respectively, after 70 min at the conditions of 10 mgRhB/L, 500 mgPMS/L, 400 mgMn(2)O(3)/L, pH 7, and 30 & DEG;C. Radical quenching tests showed that the sulfate radicals played a major role in the degradation of RhB. The decomposition of RhB followed pseudo-first-order kinetics (R-2 > 0.99) with an activation energy of 34.94 kJ/mol. The effect of anion on RhB decomposition was in the order of SO42-< NO3-< Cl(-)3(-)4(2-)3(2-). RhB degradation efficiency remained at 86.74% after 5 cycles of reuse. These results suggest a potential application of PMS activation by Mn2O3 in the treatment of non-or hard-biodegradable wastewater.
