Inspired by the efficiency of the photo-Fenton process on oxidation of organic pollutants, we herein present the feasibility of visible light driven photo-Fenton process as a post treatment of biological method for the effective degradation and detoxification of monoazo dye Mordant Yellow 10 (MY10). Anaerobic degradation of MY10 by Pseudomonas aeroginosa formed aromatic amines which were further degraded in the subsequent Fe catalyzed photo-Fenton process carried out at pH 3.0, with iron shavings and HO under blue LED light illumination. LC-MS and stoichiometric analysis confirmed that reductive azo bond cleavage was the major reaction in anaerobic bacterial degradation of MY10 producing 4-amino benzene sulfonic acid (4-ABS) and 5-amino salicylic acid (5-ASA) which were further degraded into hydroxyl amines, nitroso and di/tri carboxylic acids by the photo-Fenton process. Toxicity studies with human small cell lung cancer A549 cells provide evidence that incorporation of Fe catalyzed photo-Fenton step after anaerobic bacterial treatment improved the mineralization and detoxification of MY10 dye.

The accelerated growth of the economy and advancements in medical technology have led to the discharge of a diverse range of organic pollutants into water sources. Recent investigations into water treatment have demonstrated the potential for integrating photocatalysis with techniques such as photocatalytic persulfate activation and the Photo-Fenton process for more efficient wastewater management. Iron-based photocatalysts responsive to visible light offer several advantages, including non-toxicity, safety, affordability, and excellent chemical and optical properties.

Hybrid polyionic complexes (HPICs) are colloidal structures with a charged core rich in metal ions and a neutral hydrophilic corona. Their properties, whether as reservoirs or catalysts, depend on the accessibility and environment of the metal ions. This study demonstrates that modifying the coordination sphere of these ions can tune the properties of HPICs by altering the composition of the complexing block or varying formulation conditions.

Determination of hydrogen peroxide (HO) is of great importance in many systems for controlling the quality of products, food safety, and medical diagnostics. In this work, a highly sensitive photoluminescence film sensor was synthesized based on chitosan (CS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and terephthalic acid (TPA), in the presence of copper (II) ions for determination of hydrogen peroxide. TPA was used as a sensitive probe for detection of hydroxyl radicals produced in a photo-Fenton-like process.

The development of efficient and sustainable photocatalysts for wastewater treatment remains a critical challenge in environmental remediation. In this study, a ternary photocatalyst, Cu-CuO/g-CN, was synthesized by embedding copper-copper oxide heterostructural nanocrystals onto g-CN nanosheets via a simple deposition method. Structural and optical characterization confirmed the successful formation of the heterostructure, which combines the narrow bandgap of CuO, the high stability of g-CN, and the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of Cu nanoparticles.

The photo-Fenton reaction can efficiently degrade organic pollutants and thus is applied intensively for clearing out membrane fouling. However, the pollutant removal efficiency is greatly limited by the redox cycle rate of Fe/Fe and the rapid recombination rate of the photogenerated electrons and holes. In order to overcome these drawbacks, a sulfonated polysulfone composite membrane was designed and prepared by incorporating titanium dioxide (TiO) nanoparticles into a sulfonated polysulfone membrane and sequentially forming β-FeOOHs on the membrane surface.
