Fe-based carbonitride as Fenton-like catalyst for the elimination of organic contaminants

Phloem iron remodels root development in response to ammonium as the major nitrogen source

“…Unexpectedly, the addition of either ascorbic acid (ASA) or glutathione (GSH) to the NH 4 + medium with Fe suff resulted in greater inhibition of PR growth. This is probably because either ASA or GSH can enhance the production of hydroxyl radicals (·OH)—one of the most deleterious ROS—under Fe-rich conditions by Fenton reactions 32 . We also tested the effect of the H 2 O 2 scavenger potassium iodide, but this compound showed high toxicity to plants in our growth condition because it could inhibit PR growth even in the NO 3 - medium.…”

Degradation of organic contaminants by peroxymonosulfate activated with zeolitic imidazolate framework-based catalysts: performances, mechanisms and stability

“…137 Zou et al introduced P into Co-based SACs derived from ZIF-8-Co and found that the doping of P could adjust the electronic structure and reactivity of Co, which contributed to the enhanced catalytic performance. 138 Likewise, crystalline carbon nanotube interconnected Fe/ Fe 3 C-doped nanoporous carbonitride 139 and zero-valent Co-Fe encapsulated in nitrogen-doped porous carbon nanocomposites 140 were also synthesized for PMS activation, both of which exhibited good performance for the degradation of multiple contaminants. The past research on Environmental Science: Nano Critical review the activation of PMS for degradation of organic contaminants by ZIF derivatives is summarized in Table 2.…”
