ABSTRACT
Cobalt 2-methylimidazole (ZIF-67) have abundant nitrogen and cobalt elements, which can be used as an excellent precursor for catalyst synthesis. In this study, a new Co, N co-doped carbon-based catalyst (Co-N-BC) was synthesized from ZIF-67 and biochar, which can significantly improve the degradation of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) in catalytic ozonation. The mineralization rate of 4-NP achieves 65.8% within 60 min. The catalyst showed high recycling stability in the four cycles of reuse experiment. Different operating parameters, such as solution pH, the concentration of O3 and 4-NP, have been studied in the Co-N-BC catalytic ozonation. O3, O2-· and ·OH are determined as the main reactive species for 4-NP degradation, and ·OH is especially responsibly for 4-NP mineralization. The existence of inorganic ions, such as Cl-, NO2-, CO32- and PO43-, all significantly inhibited the degradation of 4-NP to different extend, respectively. The effect of substituent on a series of organics with similar structure of 4-NP was also investigated in Co-N-BC catalytic ozonation. This study provides a new composite material for heterogeneous catalytic ozonation, which is very promising in 4-NP contained complex wastewater treatment.
