摘要
Pollutant degradation via periodate (IO4-)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) provides an economical, energy-efficient way for sustainable pollution control. Although single-atomic metal activation (SMA) can be exploited to optimize the pollution degradation process and understand the associated mechanisms governing IO4--based AOPs, studies on this topic are rare. Herein, we demonstrated the first instance of using SMA for IO4- analysis by employing atomically dispersed Co active sites supported by N-doped graphene (N-rGO-CoSA) activators. N-rGO-CoSA efficiently activated IO4- for organic pollutant degradation over a wide pH range without producing radical species. The IO4- species underwent stoichiometric decomposition to generate the iodate (IO3-) species. Whereas Co2+ and Co3O4 could not drive IO4- activation; the Co-N coordination sites exhibited high activation efficiency. The conductive graphene matrix reduced the contaminants/electron transport distance/resistance for these oxidation reactions and boosted the activation capacity by working in conjunction with metal centers. The N-rGO-CoSA/IO4- system exhibited a substrate-dependent reactivity that was not caused by iodyl (IO3·) radicals. Electrochemical experiments demonstrated that the N-rGO-CoSA/IO4- system decomposed organic pollutants via electron-transfer-mediated nonradical processes, where N-rGO-CoSA/periodate* metastable complexes were the predominant oxidants, thereby opening a new avenue for designing efficient IO4- activators for the selective oxidation of organic pollutants.
