Abstract

Hydrocarbon-impeded soil (HIS) is solid waste from spills or leaks during industrial activities that negatively impact the environment. This study aims to utilize HIS as catalyst support on MnO2 to degrade RhB (RhB) solution using Peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and to determine the optimum conditions for the catalyst to degrade RhB. The catalyst was synthesized by reacting HIS, calcined with KMnO4 with various catalyst supports with high and low Total contain Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH). The process degradation of Rhodamine Solution was carried out with various catalysts, PMS, and RhB concentrations. The catalyst was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Nitrogen gas adsorption-desorption (BET), and Scanning Electron Microscope-Energy Disperse Spectroscope (SEM-EDX). In this study,  the best catalyst performance was MnO2@H-TPH, which could activate PMS to degrade RhB with dye removal of 98% in about 180 min, at conditions 10 g/L RhB, 0.1 g/L catalyst, and 3 g/L PMS with the activation energy of 16.3 kJ/mol.

Abstract

Green chemistry has become trending recently, and the discovery of environmentally friendly catalysts is mandatory. Activated carbons (ACs) are one of the most environmentally friendly yet cheap materials that have the potential for catalyst application. Three commercially available ACs from Pancasari, Norit, and Chemical Supply were used as metal-free catalysts for advanced oxidation process (AOP) phenol removal in water in the presence of oxidants peroxydisulfate (PDS), and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). It was found that ACs were effective to be used as catalysts for activating those oxidants to oxidize phenol in AOP reactions. In this study, the surface area of the catalyst significantly improved the phenol removal efficiency. ACs Pancasari (ACP) with the highest surface area has the best degradation performance of phenol removal with up to 99% removal efficiency in 60 minutes under the condition of [phenol] = 30 mg L-1, [ACP] = 0.2 g L-1, [PDS] = 3.3 mmol L-1, and T = 25oC. it was also found that the degradation process was significantly influenced by reaction temperature. Nevertheless, in this study, ACs display the potential as catalysts in the AOP process for wastewater treatments.

Abstract

Two MnOx, namely ?-MnO2@Mn2O3 and ?-MnO2 catalyst, were successfully synthesized using two different organic acids, tartaric and maleic acid, as a reduction in the redox process of KMnO4. The obtained catalysts are used in the AOP degradation reaction for paper mill effluent. The organic content in the effluent is analogous to the COD number in the effluent. The degradation process is depicted as a decrease in the COD number. The catalyst properties were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and N2 sorption. The obtained materials were then studied for PMS activation using Oxone® as a sulfate radical source for COD removal reactions. The ?-MnO2@Mn2O3, which is compromised by Mn (IV) and Mn (II, III), by using 0.3 gL-1 ?-MnO2@Mn2O3 has the best efficiency with almost 75% COD removal, higher than the ?-MnO2 catalyst. The activation energy of the ?-MnO2@Mn2O3 is measured up to 11.4 kJ mol-1.

Abstract

A Covalent Triazine Framework (CTF-1) and carbon nanospheres (CS) were synthesized to develop a porous, thermally stable, and efficient photocatalyst for dye degradation in wastewater treatment applications. The synthesized composite material exhibited a high surface area exceeding 400 m²/g, a well-defined mesoporous structure, and excellent optical properties, including strong light absorption extending up to 550 nm and a moderate band gap of approximately 2.8 eV. These characteristics promote effective visible light-driven photocatalysis. The photocatalytic performance was assessed by degrading methylene blue (MB) as a model organic dye pollutant under photo-Fenton conditions. The system demonstrated high efficiency, with over 90% of the dye removed within 120 minutes of irradiation. The degradation followed pseudo-first-order kinetics, confirming the photocatalytic nature of the reaction. Parameter studies indicated that hydroxyl radicals (•OH) were the dominant reactive species responsible for dye degradation. Moreover, CTF-1 retained its photocatalytic activity and structural integrity over multiple reuse cycles, showcasing excellent reusability and stability. The integration of high surface area for dye adsorption, efficient photoactivation under visible light, and robust radical generation synergistically contributed to the enhanced degradation performance. The study highlights the promising role of CTF-1 and its composites as multifunctional materials for advanced oxidation processes. Given its effectiveness, durability, and environmental compatibility, CTF-1 presents a sustainable and scalable solution for the treatment of dye-laden industrial wastewater. This work contributes to the development of next-generation photocatalysts aimed at addressing global challenges in water pollution and environmental remediation.
