Efficient peroxydisulfate activation by a CoNiFc-MOF for rapid removal of emerging contaminants via both radical and non-radical pathways

The synthesized CoNiFc-MOF catalyst can rapidly activate peroxydisulfate (PDS) to efficiently degrade BPA. The synergistic mineralization of BPA into H 2 O and CO 2 through free radical (·O 2 − ) and non-free radical ( 1 O 2 /e − ) pathways.
