基于过氧化钙的类电芬顿体系对磷酸三乙酯的矿化效果

Mineralization effect of triethyl phosphate esters by electro-Fenton-like system based on calcium peroxide

  • 摘要: 电芬顿技术是水体中难降解污染物的高效处理方法之一,然而,该体系中的H2O2存在运输不便的缺陷。以磷酸三乙酯(TEP)为目标污染物,以过氧化钙(CP)为氧化剂,以铁片作为腐蚀阳极和铁源,构建了基于过氧化钙的类电芬顿体系(电-Fe-CP体系),并考察了该体系对TEP的矿化效能及其影响因素,通过CP释放H2O2试验和淬灭试验探讨了电-Fe-CP体系矿化TEP的机理,最后对反应产物在不同pH下形成的沉淀物进行了扫描电镜(SEM)、能量色散光谱(EDS)、X射线粉末衍射(XRD)和傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)表征。结果表明:在初始pH为2.5,TEP和CP浓度分别为20 mg/L和4 mmol/L,Fe片大小为20 mm×40 mm×1 mm,电流密度为2.50 A/m2的条件下,电-Fe-CP体系在20 min内对TEP的矿化率可达到94.6%,且水中的Cl、\mathrmNO_3^- 、\mathrmHCO_3^- 等无机阴离子共存对体系矿化效果影响较小。电-Fe-CP体系中主要活性物种为羟基自由基。此外,pH对反应生成的沉淀物组分有较大影响,其中pH为8.5时形成的沉淀物主要为氢氧化铁、硫酸钙和磷酸钙,pH为10.5时可能还存在少量羟基磷灰石。研究证实了利用基于电-Fe-CP体系矿化水中TEP的可行性,并提出电-Fe-CP体系可能的应用场景及应用建议。

     

    Abstract: Electro-Fenton Technology is an effective process for the treatment of refractory contaminants in wastewater. Howerver, the technolgy has the defect of inconvenient transportation for H2O2. In this study, by selecting triethyl phosphate esters (TEP) as the target pollutant and calcium peroxide (CP) as the oxidant, with iron plate as the corrosion anode and iron source, a CP-based electro-Fenton-like system (electro-Fe-CP system) was firstly constructed to investigate its mineralization efficiency of TEP and its affecting factors. The mechanisms of TEP mineralization in the electro-Fe-CP system were then explored via the release trials of H2O2 by CP and the quenching experiments. At last, the precipitates formed from the reaction product at different pH values were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS), X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra. The results showed that when initial pH, the concentration of TEP, the concentration of CP, the size of Fe plate and the current density were 2.5, 20 mg/L, 4 mmol/L, 20 mm×40 mm×1 mm, and 2.50 A/m2, respectively, the electro-Fe-CP system achieved a mineralization rate of 94.6% within 20 min. In addition, inorganic anions (Cl, \mathrmNO_3^- , \mathrmHCO_3^- ) had a minor influence on the mineralization of TEP. Quenching experiments indicated that hydroxyl radicals (•OH) were the major active species in the electro-Fe-CP system. Furthermore, the pH significantly affected the composition of the precipitate formed from the reaction products. Specifically, the precipitate at pH 8.5 mainly consisted of iron hydroxide, calcium sulfate, and calcium phosphate, while it might also contain a small amount of hydroxyapatite at pH 10.5. This study confirms the feasibility of utilizing electro-Fenton-like system based on calcium peroxide for treating TEP in water. The possible application scenarios and suggestions for the electro-Fe-CP system were also proposed.
