Carbon nanotube-activated persulfate for degradation of new contaminants: Process, performance, and mechanism
Source abstract
Abstract
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are widely used in various catalytic reactions due to their advantages such as large specific surface area and excellent thermoelectric conductivity. In this paper, a review is presented on the state-of-the art of carbon nanotube-based persulfate activation for degradation of new contaminants. The performance of carbon nanotube (CNT) materials to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and peroxydisulfate (PDS) for degradation of organic pollutants, and their constitutive-efficacy relationships, are systematically summarized in terms of heteroatom doping, oxygen-containing functional group regulation, defect degree regulation and complexation with metals; Possible causes and regeneration methods are proposed to address the issue of poor cycling stability of CNT materials; a detailed discussion is conducted on the possible reaction mechanisms and identification methods of CNT materials for removing organic contaminants; finally, the application potential and future research direction of CNT materials in the field of environmental remediation are presented.
