Abstract: |
To alleviate environmental pollution caused by the organic chlorinated herbicide 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid(2, 4-D), in this study, iron-cobalt bimetallic nanoparticles(n-Fe/Co) were prepared by liquid-phase reduction, and the degradation performance of 2, 4-D via the activated peroxymonosulfate(PMS) system was optimized by adjusting the synthesis ratio of iron and cobalt. The results showed that 2, 4-D(10 mg·L-1) was completely removed within 30 min using 0.03 g·L-1 of n-Fe/Co and 0.5 mmol·L-1 of PMS at pH 4.5, and the removal of 2, 4-D was enhanced by 60.9 percent compared with the application of nano zero-valent iron(nZVI) alone. We found that n-Fe/Co could effectively remove 2, 4-D over a wide pH range(2-9) and under complex anion conditions. Free radical inhibition experiments revealed that hydroxyl radicals were the main active species involved in the reaction, with a contribution rate of 62.2%. On the basis of our analysis of intermediate products, we propose a degradation mechanism and the degradation pathway of 2, 4-D in the n-Fe/Co-PMS system. The findings of this study indicate that the n-Fe/Co nanocomposite-activated PMS system has considerable application potential for the treatment of 2, 4-D herbicide pollution in water. |
