Design of self-cleaning molecularly imprinted membrane with antibacterial ability for high-selectively separation of ribavirin

Muning Chen et al.

Summary: The Ribavirin-imprinted membranes (RBVMIMs) with self-cleaning, anti-fouling, and antibacterial properties achieved selective separation of RBV from industrial effluent. The use of two functional monomers in the membrane synthesis promoted selective recognition of RBV-imprinted sites, leading to satisfactory rebinding selectivity and permselectivity, indicating the potential of RBVMIMs in practical applications. The development strategies in this work not only guided selective separation of valuable constituents but also provided reference for the development of high-performance membranes.

Concentration-dependent chloride effect on radical distribution and micropollutant degradation in the sulfate radical-based AOPs

Bo Sun et al.

Summary: This study quantitatively evaluated the effect of chloride (Cl-) on radical distribution and micropollutant degradation in the UV/peroxydisulfate AOP. The results showed that Cl- significantly scavenged SO4•- and transformed it into HO• and then into Cl2•-. Bicarbonate and dissolved organic matter (DOM) had a stronger inhibitory effect on micropollutant degradation in the presence of Cl- due to the consumption of Cl2•-. The model predicted the radical concentrations and degradation contributions of 34 micropollutants in different Cl- concentrations.

Low-temperature oxidation of isopropylbenzene mediated by the system of NHPI, Fe(acac)3 and 1,10-phenanthroline

N. Kuznetsova et al.

Summary: The highly efficient oxidation of isopropylbenzene was carried out at a low temperature of 60 degrees C using the NHPI/Fe(acac)(3)/Phen system. The improved catalysis was attributed to the enhanced oxidizing ability of Fe(III) in conjunction with Phen, leading to the intense generation of PINO. NMR observations revealed the formation of a hydrogen-bonded NHPI-Phen adduct soluble in acetonitrite and isopropylbenzene, demonstrating the potential for selective synthesis of isopropylbenzene hydroperoxide.

Reactivity of Chlorine Radicals (Cl• and Cl2•-) with Dissolved Organic Matter and the Formation of Chlorinated Byproducts

Yu Lei et al.

Summary: Chlorine radicals, including Cl· and Cl2(·-), are produced in sunlight waters or water treatment processes. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a significant role in reacting with or scavenging Cl· and Cl2(·-) in water. This study quantified the reaction rates between chlorine radicals and DOM and observed that DOM with high aromaticity and total antioxidant capacity tends to react faster with Cl2(·-). Additionally, the study monitored the formation of chlorinated byproducts, highlighting the importance of DOM in scavenging chlorine radicals and the potential risks associated with producing unknown toxicity chlorinated byproducts.

A review on the degradation efficiency, DBP formation, and toxicity variation in the UV/chlorine treatment of micropollutants

Yujin Yeom et al.

Summary: The UV/chlorine process is an emerging advanced oxidation treatment method that can effectively degrade refractory micropollutants, but may also lead to the formation of toxic transformation products and disinfection byproducts. Studies have shown that the toxicity variations of micropollutants in the UV/chlorine treatment are related to their compound-specific reactivity towards specific reactive species. Further research on the cost-effectiveness of the UV/chlorine process regarding micropollutant degradation without increasing associated toxicity is necessary.

Summary: Introduced ABTS as an electron shuttle in Fe(II)/PAA process significantly enhanced the oxidation capacity and efficiency for diclofenac elimination. ABTS(.+) was identified as the primary reactive species responsible for diclofenac degradation in the presence of Fe(II) and PAA, although other reactive species like (FeO2+)-O-IV and R-O-. also existed. The study proposed two possible degradation pathways of diclofenac and demonstrated the potential application of ABTS/Fe(II)/PAA process in water treatment for micropollutant removal.

Modeling degradation kinetics of gemfibrozil and naproxen in the UV/chlorine system: Roles of reactive species and effects of water matrix

Huaying Liu et al.

Summary: This study quantified the specific roles of radical species in the UV/chlorine oxidation degradation of gemfibrozil and naproxen. The results showed that primary reactive species and secondary species dominated the degradation in pure water, while Cl2·- and ClO· contributed significantly to the enhanced degradation in the presence of Cl-. The presence of HCO3- facilitated degradation, while dissolved organic matter inhibited the process. The constructed model successfully predicted the oxidation degradation kinetics in real waters, with center dot OH and CO3·- as the predominant reactive species.
