摘要
• Efficient degradation of NAs was achieved by EC/PMS/Fe(III) system. • The redox cycle of Fe(III)/Fe(II) was triggered on the cathode. • The chemical structures of NA molecules affect their reactivity. • • OH, SO 4 •− and 1 O 2 are the main reactive species in EC/PMS/Fe(III) system. • CHA degradation pathways and byproducts were revealed. In this study, an electrochemical/peroxymonosulfate/Fe(III) (EC/PMS/Fe(III)) system was established for efficient degradation of four naphthenic acids (NAs) compounds including cyclohexanecarboxylic (CHA), heptanoic (HPA), benzoic (BA) and 2-methylhexanoic acids (2-MHA). The introduction of electric field enhances the redox cycle of Fe(III)/Fe(II) to activate PMS for degredation of NAs. Complete degradation of NAs compounds (5 mg/L) has been achieved within 30 min in the EC/PMS/Fe(III) system. The results of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis, scavenging experiment, and chemical probe experiments indicated hydroxyl radical ( • OH), sulfate radical (SO 4 •− ) and singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) are primary reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the EC/PMS/Fe(III) system. NAs compounds with different structures exhibit inconsistent degradation efficiency in current system ( k CHA > k BA > k HPA > k 2-MHA ), depending on the selectivity of the different ROS and stability of respective intermediate organic radicals. Besides, multiple degradation pathways of CHA, mainly including hydroxylation and carbonylation, were proposed by combining the results of mass spectrometry analysis with the calculated Fukui index based on density functional theory (DFT) calculation. In addition, the EC/PMS/Fe(III) system exhibited robust performance with the addition of co-existing ions. This work provides a novel strategy for efficient degradation of NAs for future remediation of petroleum wastewater.
