Abstract
The heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction is an advanced oxidation process, which is widely recognized for its efficient removal of recalcitrant organic contaminants. In recent years, the construction of efficient and reusable heterogeneous Fenton-like catalysts has been extensively investigated. Recently, the use of bimetallic oxides and their complexes as catalysts for Fenton-like reaction has attracted intense attention due to their high catalytic performance and excellent stability over a wide pH range. In this article, the fundamental mechanisms of Fenton-like reactions were briefly introduced. The important reports on bimetallic oxides and their complexes are classified in detail, which are mainly divided into Fe-based and Fe-free bimetallic catalysts. We then focused in depth on the performance of their respective applications in Fenton-like reactions. Special consideration has been given to the respective contributions and synergistic mechanisms of the two metals in catalysts. Overall, it is concluded that synergistic effect of the two metals in the bimetallic catalyst can boost the utilization of hydrogen peroxide, provide adequate accessible active sites, which are all beneficial to improve catalytic performance. Finally, the current challenges in this field were proposed. Our review is expected to provide help for the application of bimetallic oxides and their complexes.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2020; 749:142294. [PMID: 33370893 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.142294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2019] [Revised: 09/06/2020] [Accepted: 09/07/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
In this paper, the performance of hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) was investigated on real food waste (FW) to improve resource recovery opportunities. The HTC was performed in a high pressure batch reactor (without addition of water) at desired temperatures for different durations to study the properties of solid hydrochar (HC) and process water (PW) produced during the process. The reaction temperature and run time of 200 °C and 1 h, respectively were found suitable to produce the HC (high heating value = ~30 MJ/kg) having properties similar to that of the peat/lignite coal. Moreover, durable pellets could also be prepared from HC without addition of binder. The kinetic constants for HC combustion were also predicted using non-isothermal model-free approach for the data obtained from thermo-gravimetric analysis. In the PW samples recovered after HTC, several value-added compounds like 2,5-hydroxymethyl furfural, humic-like substances (HLS), proteins, carbohydrates and volatile fatty acids could be detected in appreciable quantities. However, longer reaction resulted in further degradation of above macromolecules into VFAs. Based on the observations, a pathway for FW degradation during HTC process is proposed. Moreover, the HLS and proteins mixture recovered from the PW sample exhibited no adverse impact on seed growth. The present study demonstrates that the HTC can be a potential treatment method for FW to recover a variety of useful materials. Further studies should focus on developing cost-effective methods for the recovery of various macromolecules from PW.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) are well-developed light therapy methods for cancer; however, both have a few areas that need improvement. A sustained PDT effect depends on the sustained generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS); therefore, adjusting the type of photosensitizer or the reaction mechanism to prolong the duration of the oxidation-reduction reaction is a possible solution for the continuation of the PDT effect. Further, if PTT could be combined with other treatments, it would bring about a more satisfactory therapeutic effect. To increase the treatment effect of the above two therapeutic methods, a collaborative treatment model of photo/chemodynamic therapy (PCDT) and PTT is needed and is the focus of this study. On the one hand, PCDT is a therapy that integrates PDT with Fenton-like reactions, and Fenton-like reactions can help PDT to produce more ROS by making better use of H2O2 in the tumor microenvironment. On the other hand, the PTT effect can also promote PCDT effects to some extent because rising temperature can elevate the redox reaction rate. Therefore, a copper oxide semiconductor photosensitizer was selected in this research to realize the abovementioned therapeutic purposes and experimental concepts. A porous silica carrier can facilitate the uniform attachment of the copper oxide photosensitizer to the SiO2 surface to form a relatively uniform nanostructure, and the nanoporous structure can increase the performance of the whole material to a certain extent. Based on these perspectives, SiO2@CuO nanotube (NT), an agent of both Fenton-like photosensitization and photothermal reagent, is synthesized by the hydrothermal co-precipitation template approach to shrink the tumor through the combined effect of PCDT and PTT. In this system, copper ions can participate in the Fenton-like reactions and make better use of H2O2 to generate more ROS. Herein, 808 nm light was chosen for irradiation because of its suitable excitation ability, applicable penetration and low intrinsic damage. The experimental results show that SiO2@CuO NT is a promising agent that combines PCDT and PTT for cancer treatment. This work provides guidance for the synthesis of Fenton-like photosensitizers for the PCDT effect.

Abstract
Cu-based Fenton systems have been recognized as a promising suite of technologies for the treatment of industrial wastewaters due to their high catalytic oxidation capacity. Rapid progress regarding Cu Fenton systems has been made not only in fundamental mechanistic aspects of these systems but also with regard to applications over the past decade. Based on available literature, this review synthesizes the recent advances regarding both the understanding and applications of Cu-based Fenton processes for industrial wastewater treatment. Cu-based catalysts that are essential to the effectiveness of use of Cu Fenton reactions for oxidation of target species are mainly classified into two types: (i) Cu complexes with organic or inorganic ligands, and (ii) Cu composites with inorganic materials. Performance of the Cu-based catalysts for the removal of organic pollutants in industrial wastewaters are reviewed, with the key operating parameters illustrated. Furthermore, the roles of Cu complexes and composites in both homogeneous and heterogeneous Cu-Fenton systems are critically examined with particular focus on the mechanisms involved. Perspectives and future efforts needed for Cu-based Fenton systems using Cu complexes and composites for industrial wastewater treatment are presented.

Synthesis of Spinel Ferrite MFe 2O 4 (M = Co, Cu, Mn, and Zn) for Persulfate Activation to Remove Aqueous Organics: Effects of M-Site Metal and Synthetic Method. Front Chem 2020; 8:177.

Abstract
Metal species and synthetic method determine the characteristics of spinel ferrite MFe2O4. Herein, a series of MFe2O4 (M = Co, Cu, Mn, Zn) were synthesized to investigate the effect of M-site metal on persulfate activation for the removal of organics from aqueous solution. Results showed that M-site metal of MFe2O4 significantly influenced the catalytic persulfate oxidation of organics. The efficiency of the removal of organics using different MFe2O4 + persulfate systems followed the order of CuFe2O4 > CoFe2O4 > MnFe2O4 > ZnFe2O4. Temperature-programmed oxidation and cyclic voltammetry analyses indicated that M-site metal affected the catalyst reducibility, reversibility of M2+/M3+ redox couple, and electron transfer, and the strengths of these capacities were consistent with the catalytic performance. Besides, it was found that surface hydroxyl group was not the main factor affecting the reactivity of MFe2O4 in persulfate solution. Moreover, synthetic methods (sol–gel, solvothermal, and coprecipitation) for MFe2O4 were further compared. Characterization showed that sol–gel induced good purity, porous structure, large surface area, and favorable element chemical states for ferrite. Consequently, the as-synthesized CuFe2O4 showed better catalytic performance in the removal of organics (96.8% for acid orange 7 and 62.7% for diclofenac) along with good reusability compared with those obtained by solvothermal and coprecipitation routes. This work provides a deeper understanding of spinel ferrite MFe2O4 synthesis and persulfate activation.
