Nanoscale CoNi alloy@carbon derived from Hofmann-MOF as a magnetic/effective activator for monopersulfate to eliminate an ultraviolet filter

Modulating Direct Growth of Copper Cobaltite Nanostructure on Copper Mesh as a Hierarchical Catalyst of Oxone Activation for Efficient Elimination of Azo Toxicant

“…As AR could be effectively degraded using Oxone activated by the FCCM, it was interesting to further study the decomposition route of AR. To this end, density functional theory (DFT) computation would then offer insights into the susceptibilities of reactive sites of AR according to the molecular orbitals (MOs) and Fukui indices of AR [55][56][57]. Figure 9a,b show the optimized structure with atomic labels and electrostatic potential (ESP)-mapped configuration of AR, in which the red-colored and blue-colored regions represent the electron-abundant and electron-scarce parts of the AR.…”

Emerging investigator series: enhancing the degradation of ciprofloxacin in water using Oxone activated by urchin-like cubic and hollow-structured cobalt@N-doped carbon prepared by etching-engineering: a comparative study with mechanistic and eco-toxic assessments

“…23,24 Nevertheless, the self-decomposition of Oxone for producing these ROS is slow, thus several strategies have been employed for enhancing Oxone activation to rapidly generate SO 4 ˙− and OH˙, including ultraviolet, heat, and catalysts. [25][26][27][28][29][30] Owing to its easy separation, heterogeneous catalysts have been favorably employed for Oxone activation, in which cobalt-based catalysts have been confirmed as the most efficacious materials for activating Oxone in water. 20,31 Nevertheless, the ongoing exploration of exceptionally advantageous cobaltic materials is still necessitated to optimize Co-based heterogeneous catalysts for Oxone activation in degradation of CIP.…”
