Abstract
The aim of this research is to degrade organic contaminants in aqueous solution via lead ferrite (PbFe2O4) as a catalyst to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS). PbFe2O4 was synthesized by a citrate combustion method and analyzed by SEM, TEM and XRD. A simulated solution including thionine were used, with different conditions tested to optimize the degradation process, including comparing PbFe2O4 to other catalysts, PbO and Fe2O3, and tracking active oxygen species. The concentrations of thionine and PMS were tracked with a UV-Vis spectrophotometer in the treatment process. The data are presented as graphs and tables. A detailed analyses of this report can be found in the article “New insight into the mechanism of peroxymonosulfate activation by nanoscaled lead-based spinel for organic matters degradation: a singlet oxygen-dominated oxidation process” published in Journal of colloid and interface science.
Highlights
The aim of this research is to degrade organic contaminants in aqueous solution via lead ferrite (PbFe2O4) as a catalyst to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS)
The data reveal that a new spinel material, PbFe2O4, can be used as catalyst to activate PMS generating active oxygen species for organic contaminants degradation in aqueous with a non-radical process
Researchers involved in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) and treatment of organic contaminants in water can benefit from the data
Summary
Data presented in this paper described the microstructure and morphology of the synthesized catalysts and effectiveness of PbFe2O4/PMS system in thionine and tetracyclines antibiotics degradation. The raw data of all degradation experiments are shared as supplementary material
