Catalytic Ozonation of Sulfachloropyridazine Sodium by Diatomite-Modified Fe2O3: Mechanism and Pathway
Summary
This study developed diatomite-modified Fe2O3 as a catalyst for ozonation of the antibiotic sulfachloropyridazine sodium, achieving high degradation efficiency and identifying the reactive oxygen species responsible for pollutant breakdown.
A diatomite-modified Fe2O3 (Fe2O3/Dia) catalyst was prepared to catalyze the ozonation degradation of sulfachloropyridazine sodium (SPDZ). The chemical oxygen demand (COD) was used as the index of pollutant degradation. The catalytic ozonation experiment showed that the COD removal rate of SPDZ was 87% under Fe2O3/Dia catalysis, which was much higher than that obtained when using Fe2O3 as the catalyst. The characteristics of the Fe2O3/Dia catalyst were investigated, and the successful synthesis of the Fe2O3/Dia composite catalyst was proved by XRD, XPS, SEM, FTIR, BET and other characterization methods. The catalytic mechanism of degradation by ozone with Fe2O3/Dia was analyzed. According to free-radical trapping experiments and an in situ electron paramagnetic spectrometer characterization analysis, the main oxidizing species in the catalytic Fe2O3/Dia ozone system is ·OH. The intermediates in the degradation process of SPDZ were detected and analyzed in detail by liquid chromatography-coupled mass spectrometry. The degradation mechanism and three degradation paths of SPDZ were proposed.

Mechanistic insights to sorptive removal of four sulfonamide antibiotics from water using magnetite-functionalized biochar
This paper is not about microplastics. It investigates how magnetite-functionalized biochar removes sulfonamide antibiotics from water, finding that hydrogen bonding is the primary mechanism of adsorption and that the material's oxygen-containing surface groups drive removal efficiency. The study focuses on antibiotic water contamination remediation rather than microplastic pollution.
The effect of Ozonation on the chemical structure of microplastics
Ozone treatment of microplastics in water caused oxidative changes to polymer surfaces including carbonyl group formation and surface cracking, which altered hydrophobicity and potentially increased the capacity of treated particles to adsorb contaminants, suggesting that ozonation in water treatment may chemically transform rather than eliminate microplastic hazards.
