Amorphous zirconium oxide activates peroxymonosulfate for selective degradation of organic compounds: Performance, mechanisms and structure-activity relationship

Xiaoyang Li et al.

Summary: The application of heterogeneous advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in wastewater treatment is hindered by low oxidant utilization efficiency, slow catalytic cycling, and matrix interference. This study demonstrates that amorphous zirconium dioxide (aZrO2), a redox-inert metal oxide, can efficiently activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to degrade organic micropollutants even under low oxidant doses and complex matrices. The surface Zr(IV)-PMS* complex is identified as the principal reactive species, and the interaction between Zr atom and PMS leads to prolonged O-O bond and elevated oxidation potential for direct reaction with contaminants.
