Ultrasound assisted fabrication of InVO 4/In 2S 3 heterostructure for enhanced sonophotocatalytic degradation of pesticides. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 100:106615. [PMID: 37776717 PMCID: PMC10561127 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106615] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2023] [Revised: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 10/02/2023]
Abstract
A cost effective and environmentally benign ultrasonic method has been developed for the synthesis of InVO4 (InV), In2S3 (InS) and the InVO4/In2S3 heterostructure (InV/InS). All the designed materials were evaluated for their structural, morphological, spectroscopic, and electrochemical characterizations. Materials were examined for photocatalytic, sonocatalytic, and sonophotocatalytic degradation of carbofuran (CBF) and diazinon (DZN) pesticides under visible light. InV/InS showed enhanced degradation of CBF and DZN when compared to InV and InS. Photocatalytic degradation was accelerated by ultrasonication and found to degrade 97 and 98 % of CBF and DZN in 60 and 70 min, respectively. The reaction conditions, like pH, catalyst dosage, acoustic intensity, and ultrasound power, were carefully optimized. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy shows the generation of superoxide radical anion and hydroxyl radicals as reactive species during photoredox reaction. The CBF and DZN degradation intermediates were analyzed using liquid chromatography mass spectroscopy (LC-MS) that shows the mineralization of the CBF and DZN to CO2 and H2O. The effect of Cl-, and PO43- were examined towards degradation of CBF and DZN under optimal conditions in the presence of InV/InS. The degradation of CBF and DZN is decreased in presence of Cl-, CO32- and NO3- but PO43- ions does not show any effect on degradation. The bandgap and Mott-Schottky results suggest the existence of type-II heterostructure between InV and InS through the interface. The synthesis of heterostructure and degradation of pesticides utilizes ultrasonic waves, which prove their multiple applications and attract researchers towards the effective use of sonication.

Abstract
This study is the first to explore the possibility of utilizing CuCr LDH decorated on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and graphene oxide (GO) as sonophotocatalysts for the degradation of dimethyl phthalate (DMP). CuCr LDH and its nanocomposites were successfully fabricated and characterized. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) along with high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) both evidenced the formation of randomly oriented nanosheet structures of CuCr LDH coupled with thin and folded sheets of GO and rGO. The impact of diverse processes on the degradation efficiency of DMP in the presence of the so-prepared catalysts was compared. Benefiting from the low bandgap and high specific surface area, the as-obtained CuCr LDH/rGO represented outstanding catalytic activity (100 %) toward 15 mg L-1 of DMP within 30 min when subjected to light and ultrasonic irradiations simultaneously. Radical quenching experiments and visual spectrophotometry using an O-phenylenediamine revealed the crucial role of hydroxyl radicals compared to holes and superoxide radicals. Overall, outcomes disclosed that CuCr LDH/rGO is a stable and proper sonophotocatalyst for environmental remediation.

ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2022; 91:106236. [PMID: 36442410 PMCID: PMC9709225 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2022.106236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Revised: 11/14/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 05/12/2023]
Abstract
Metribuzin is an herbicide that easily contaminates ground and surface water. Herein, La-doped ZnFe layered double hydroxide (LDH) was synthesized for the first time and used for the degradation of metribuzin via ultrasonic (US) assisted peroxydisulfate (PDS) activation. The synthesized LDH had a lamellar structure, an average thickness of 26 nm, and showed mesoporous characteristics, including specific surface area 110.93 m2 g-1, pore volume 0.27 cm3 g-1, and pore diameter 9.67 nm. The degradation efficiency of the US/La-doped ZnFe LDH/PDS process (79.1 %) was much greater than those of the sole processes, and the synergy factor was calculated as 3.73. The impact of the reactive species on the sonocatalytic process was evaluated using different scavengers. After four consecutive cycles, 10.8 % loss occurred in the sonocatalytic activity of the La-doped LDH. Moreover, the efficiency of the US/La-doped LDH/PDS process was studied with respect to the degradation of metribuzin in a wastewater matrix. According to GC-MS analysis, six by-products were detected during the degradation of metribuzin. Our results indicate that the US/La-doped ZnFe LDH/PDS process has great potential for efficient degradation of metribuzin-contaminated water and wastewater.

Abstract
Contamination of water resources by pharmaceutical residues, especially during the time of pandemics, has become a serious problem worldwide and concerns have been raised about the efficient elimination of these compounds from aquatic environments. This study has focused on the development and evaluation of the sonocatalytic activity of a flower-like MoS2/CNTs nanocomposite for the targeted degradation of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). This nanocomposite was prepared using a facile hydrothermal route and characterized with various analytical methods, including X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy, which results confirmed the successful synthesis of the nanocomposite. Moreover, the results of the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy analyses showed an increase in the specific surface area and a decrease in the band gap energy of the nanocomposite when compared with those of MoS2. Nanocomposites with different component mass ratios were then synthesized, and MoS2/CNTs (10:1) was identified to have the best sonocatalytic activity. The results indicated that 70% of HCQ with the initial concentration of 20 mg/L could be degraded using 0.1 g/L of MoS2/CNTs (10:1) nanocomposite within 120 min of sonocatalysis at the pH of 8.7 (natural pH of the HCQ solution). The dominant reactive species in the sonocatalytic degradation process were identified using various scavengers and the intermediates generated during the process were detected using GC-MS analysis, enabling the development of a likely degradation scheme. In addition, the results of consecutive sonocatalytic cycles confirmed the stability and reusability of this nanocomposite for sonocatalytic applications. Thus, our data introduce MoS2/CNTs nanocomposite as a proficient sonocatalyst for the treatment of pharmaceutical contaminants.

Abstract
Eu-doped Y2O3 coated diatomite nanostructures with variable Eu3+ contents were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal technique. The products were characterized by means of energy dispersive X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy techniques. As claimed by PXRD, the particles were crystallized excellently and attributed to the cubic phase of Y2O3. The influence of substitution of Eu3+ ions into Y2O3 lattice caused a redshift in the absorbance and a decrease in the bandgap of as-prepared coated compounds. The pore volume and BET specific surface area of Eu-doped Y2O3-coated diatomite is greater than uncoated biosilica. The sonophotocata-lytic activities of as-synthesized specimens were evaluated for the degradation of Reactive Blue 19. The effect of various specifications such as ultrasonic power, catalyst amount, and primary dye concentration was explored.

Abstract
The catalytic activity of layered double hydroxides, with and without insertion of copper, was evaluated in a heterogeneous Fenton process for degradation of the antibiotic sulfathiazole (STZ). The characterizations with different techniques revealed lamellar structures formed by stacking of layers containing magnesium, iron, and copper cations. The insertion of copper in the lamellar structure increased the specific area of the material and the degradation kinetics, achieving complete STZ removal after 90 min. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis showed the presence of Cu(II) and Cu(I) surface sites, which contributed to the generation of hydroxyl and hydroperoxyl/superoxide radicals. It also indicated an increase of Cu(I) content after use. For both materials, but specially for LDH without copper, addition of tert-butyl alcohol and p-benzoquinone hindered STZ degradation, indicating the importance of hydroxyl and hydroperoxyl/superoxide radicals in the degradation process, respectively. These results demonstrated the potential of copper-modified MgFe-CO3 as a catalyst for the degradation of emerging contaminants, offering the benefits of easy preparation and high efficiency in the Fenton process.

Abstract
In this study, Tb-doped CdSe nanoparticles with variable Tb3+ content were synthesized by a simple sonochemical technique. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The sono-photocatalytic activities of the as-prepared specimens were assessed for the degradation of Reactive Black 5. The experimental results show that the sono-photocatalytic process (85.25%) produced a higher degradation percentage than the individual sono- (22%) and photocatalytic degradation (8%) processes for an initial dye concentration and Tb-doped CdSe dosage of 20 mg/L and 1 g/L, respectively. Response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to assess model and optimize the impacts of the operational parameters, namely, the Tb3+ content, initial dye concentration, catalyst dosage, and time. The addition of benzoquinone results in remarkably inhibited degradation and the addition of ammonium oxalate reduced the removal percentage to 24%. Superoxide radicals and photogenerated holes were detected as the main oxidative species.

Abstract
The application of layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanomaterials as catalysts has attracted great interest due to their unique structural features. It also triggered the need to study their fate and behavior in the aquatic environment. In the present study, Zn-Fe nanolayered double hydroxides (Zn-Fe LDHs) were synthesized using a co-precipitation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption analyses. The toxicity of the home-made Zn-Fe LDHs catalyst was examined by employing a variety of aquatic organisms from different trophic levels, namely the marine photobacterium Vibrio fischeri, the freshwater microalga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna, and the duckweed Spirodela polyrhiza. From the experimental results, it was evident that the acute toxicity of the catalyst depended on the exposure time and type of selected test organism. Zn-Fe LDHs toxicity was also affected by its physical state in suspension, chemical composition, as well as interaction with the bioassay test medium.

Abstract
Herein, FeCuMg and CrCuMg layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were synthesized and their sonophotocatalytic activities toward Acid blue 113 (AB113) were compared. Sonolysis alone (only ultrasound) led to the decolorization efficiency of 13.0 %. A similar result was obtained in the case of the utilization of photolysis alone using a 10-W LED lamp (13.5 %). The adsorption process of AB113 onto both compounds was not efficient to significantly remove the target contaminant. The bandgap energy of 2.54 eV and 2.41 eV was calculated for FeCuMg and CrCuMg LDHs, respectively, indicating relatively higher photocatalytic activity of Cr-incorporated LDH than FeCuMg LDH. The sonophotocatalysis of AB113 (50 mg L-1) over CrCuMg LDH (81.1 %) was more efficient than that of FeCuMg LDH (57.3 %) within the reaction time of 60 min. Intermediate byproducts of the sonophotocatalytic decomposition of organic dye over the as-synthesized tri-metal layered sonophotocatalysts were also identified. Furthermore, the antibacterial activity of both LDHs was evaluated by the CFU technique and the MBC and MIC values were determined. The antibacterial assessment confirmed the higher antibacterial activity of CrCuMg LDH than that of FeCuMg LDH against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus).
