Abstract:Organophosphorus esters (OPEs) are important chemicals
functioning
as extractants, plasticizers, flame retardants, solvents, additives,
etc., and are also recognized as hazardous organic liquids generated
from industrial processes. Herein, we developed a CeO2-catalyzed
degradation with simultaneous phosphorus immobilization technology
to treat typical OPE solvents. Under the investigated reaction conditions
of a temperature of 180 °C, a reaction time of 3 h, and a dosage
of ball-milled CeO2 of 19.8 g mL–1 of
