Description
Summary:Abstract An innovative strategy for synthesizing novel dual-reaction-center (DRC) catalysts from chicken manure (CM) biochar to purify wastewater that contained emerging contaminants (ECs) is proposed to synchronously address the release of ECs and improper disposal of livestock manure. A series of characterization techniques reveal the formation of a special C-O-Ca bond bridge (cation-π) structure on resourcelized CM nanosheets (RCM NSs). RCM NSs exhibit distinct selectivity and anti-interference capability for various ECs removal in complex matrices, and the water purification system remains stable after 1735 hours (equivalent to 3470 cycles) of operation. Density Functional Tomography (DFT) calculations reveal that trace of peroxymonosulfate as an inducer initiates the continuous donation of electrons from electron-rich ECs and the C-O-Ca bond bridges provide a favorable pathway for electron transfer, which facilitates the electron capture effect of dissolved oxygen in the system. This study provides a novel strategy to convert livestock manure into DRC-catalysts for developing energy-saving and high-efficiency environmental remediation technologies. Graphical Abstract
