Abstract Superoxide radicals (O 2•-) produced by the reaction of Fe (III) with H 2 O 2 can
regenerate Fe (II) in Fenton-like reactions, and conditions that facilitate this function enhance …

Metal components have critical influences on the generation of persistent free radicals
(PFRs) in biochar. However, little is known about the effect on the formation of PFRs brought …

Abstract The sluggish Fe 3+/Fe 2+ cycle was the rate-limiting step in the Fenton-like
reaction, and metal-free carbonaceous materials are considered as emerging alternatives to …

Due to abundant biomass and eco-friendliness, biochar is exemplified as one of the most
promising candidates to mediate the degradation of environmental contaminants. Recently …

Co-activation of H 2 O 2 with biochar and iron sources together provides an attractive
strategy for efficient removal of refractory pollutants, because it can solve the problems of …

The Fenton process is among the most popular technique for oxidation of organic pollutants,
but faces the challenges of slow Fe (III)/Fe (II) cycling, limited radical dot OH production, and …

Greigite and biochar are two important materials recently gaining importance in Fenton
catalysis to remove organic contaminants. Each material, however, has significant …

In this study, the Fe, N co-doped biochar (Fe-N-BC) was prepared by pyrolyzing wheat
straw, urea and iron salts and used to activate persulfate (peroxydisulfate, PS) for organic …

The sluggish kinetics of Fe (Ⅱ) recovery in Fenton/Fenton-like reactions significantly limits
the oxidation efficiency. In this study, we for the first time use boron carbide (BC) as a green …

We investigated the activation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by biochars (produced from
pine needles, wheat, and maize straw) for 2-chlorobiphenyl (2-CB) degradation in the …
