“…Wetland plants are harvested at the end of their lives, making them an infallible choice as feedstock for biochar and an environmentally friendly model [ 16 , 17 ]. However, biochar itself hardly produces strong oxidizing substances such as hydroxyl radicals in advanced oxidation [ 18 ], and its adsorption and desorption performances before being used as a carrier are not significant enough [ 19 ]; however, solving the above difficulties in the application of biochar is a worthwhile pursuit [ 20 ]. Therefore, attention has been turned to the innovative synthesis and application of biochar catalyst materials to solve the above problems [ 21 , 22 ].…”

Transition metals and their oxide compounds exhibit excellent chemical reactivity; however, their easy agglomeration and high cost limit their catalysis applications. In this study, an interpolation structure of a Myriophyllum verticillatum L. biochar-supported Mn/Mg composite (Mn/Mg@MV) was prepared to degrade triphenyl phosphate (TPhP) from wastewater through the activating periodate (PI) process. Interestingly, the Mn/Mg@MV composite showed strong radical self-producing capacities. The Mn/Mg@MV system degraded 93.34% TPhP (pH 5, 10 μM) within 150 min. The experimental results confirmed that the predominant role of IO3· and the auxiliary ·OH jointly contributed to the TPhP degradation. In addition, the TPhP pollutants were degraded to various intermediates and subsequent Mg mineral phase mineralization via mechanisms like interfacial processes and radical oxidation. DFT theoretical calculations further indicated that the synergy between Mn and Mg induced the charge transfer of the carbon-based surface, leading to the formation of an ·OH radical-enriched surface and enhancing the multivariate interface process of ·OH, IO3, and Mn(VII) to TPhP degradation, resulting in the further formation of Mg PO4 mineralization.
