Catalytic Converters for Water Treatment

Abstract: Fresh water demand is driven by human consumption, agricultural irrigation, and industrial usage and continues to increase along with the global population. Improved methods to inexpensively and sustainably clean water unfit for human consumption are desired, particularly at remote or rural locations. Heterogeneous catalysts offer the opportunity to directly convert toxic molecules in water to nontoxic products. Heterogeneous catalytic reaction processes may bring to mind large-scale industrial production of c… Show more

“…To better understand the fate of the initial N-organic content, a complete mass balance was conducted (Figure 7b). Compared with the 53% mineralization and volatilization of carbon, only 46% volatilization of nitrogen occurred as the likely result of producing volatile species such as N2 and NOx [53][54][55]. The remaining nitrogen in solution was associated to remaining acetaminophen (0.005 mM), yielded oxamic acid (0.61 µM), and dissolved inorganic nitrogen (0.026 mM); inorganic nitrogen represented 75% of total dissolved nitrogen in solution after photoelectrocatalytic treatment.…”

“…) was unobvious and covered by the band of NO − species. Based on the above intermediates detected by in situ tests and reported studies [21,47], we deduced the reaction path and carried out the theoretical simulation of Co NSAs and Co/CoO NSAs applied for the electrocatalytic nitrate reduction along this reaction path ( Figure 5(c)). The calculated reaction Gibbs free energies of every process during nitrate reduction were shown.…”

“…Presently, owing to the overuse of nitrogen-based fertilizers and the discharge of industrial and domestic sewage, excessive nitrate (NO 3 − ) exists in surface and underground water, threating human health [20][21][22]. Currently, some commercial technologies, including reverse osmosis, ion exchange and electrodialysis, are used to treat nitrate contamination to produce clean water.…”

“…10,11 In this context, excellent opportunities arise for application of hybrid nanocomposites composed of Au with magnetic oxides in catalysis. 12 Au nanoparticles supported on magnetic oxides may serve to avoid suspension aggregation and catalytic deactivation. 13,14 Meanwhile, the surface coating of magnetic nanoparticles precludes the agglomeration of superparamagnetic nanoparticles enhancing their dispersion in solution.…”
