Abstract

Material-enhanced heterogonous peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation on emerging organic pollutant degradation has attracted intensive attention, and a challenge is the electron transfer efficiency from material to PMS for radical production. Herein, an interface architecture of Co(OH)2 nanosheets growing on the KNbO3 perovskite [Co(OH)2/KNbO3] was developed, which showed high catalytic activity in PMS activation. A high reaction rate constant (k1) of 0.631 min–1 and complete removal of pazufloxacin within 5 min were achieved. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray absorption near edge structure spectra, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed the successful construction of the material…
