The application of diatomic catalysts in advanced oxidation Fenton-like water treatment technology:A mini review

In the past few years, there has been a widespread utilization of diatomic catalysts in the catalysis sector because of their distinct benefits. In this review, we specify the application of diatomic catalysts based on carbon and carbon nitride in the Fenton-like field. This paper focuses on the synthesis and characterization of homonuclear and heteronuclear diatomic catalysts and methods to improve the catalytic performance by optimizing d-band structure, tuning charge transfer, and constructing spin states. There is no doubt that diatomic catalysts have bright prospects in the Fenton-like field.
