FeC@Fe decorated carbonized wood Fiber catalyst for organic dyes degradation: Preparation, characterization and mechanism.

The extensive use of organic dyes has led to significant water pollution. Using lignocellulosic waste as a precursor for catalysts preparation for sewage remediation presents an effective alternative with numerous advantages in sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental compatibility. In this work, wood fiber waste collected from wood processing plants was decorated with Prussian blue (PB) and then annealed to produce carbonized wood fiber catalyst (FeC@Fe-CB).

Developing Prussian blue/wood-derived biochar catalyst for persistent organic pollutant degradation: Preparation, characterization, and mechanism.

Biomass-derived biochar shows broad promise for persistent organic pollutants (POPs) degradation and thus establishes a more sustainable homestead. However, effective catalytic performance is still challenging. Herein, an efficient catalyst (Prussian blue decorated wood-derived biochar, PBB) was constructed by introducing Prussian blue (PB) into wood-based biochar to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for removing POPs.
