How Is the COVID-19 Virus Transmitted?

15 weeks into the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists know a lot more about how the disease is transmitted. The highest risk for public health is from crowded indoor spaces with poor ventilation, and especially with prolonged face-to-face interactions. In close proximity, people speaking, coughing, singing, or simply breathing can produce respiratory droplets containing the COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) ...

Effect of solution matrix and pH in Z-nZVI-catalyzed percarbonate system on the generation of reactive oxygen species and degradation of 1,1,1-trichloroethane

This study primarily focuses on evaluating the effects of solution matrix and pH for the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROSs) in a Z-nZVI-catalyzed sodium percarbonate (SPC) system to degrade 1,1,1-trichloroethane (1,1,1-TCA) in the absence and presence of a reducing agent (RA), i.e. hydroxylamine. Degradation of 1,1,1-TCA was 49.5% and 95% in the absence and presence of RA. Probe ...

Electrochemical oxidation of quinoline aqueous solution on β-PbO2 anode and the evolution of phytotoxicity on duckweed

Electrochemical oxidation of quinoline on a β-PbO2 electrode modified with fluoride resin and the comprehensive toxicity of intermediates formed during oxidation on duckweed were investigated in detail. The results showed that quinoline was initially hydroxylated at the C-2 and C-8 positions by hydroxyl radicals (·OH) electro-generated on a β-PbO2 anode, yielding 2(1H)-quinolinone and ...

Effect of common inorganic ions on aniline degradation in groundwater by activated persulfate with ferrous iron

Aniline is widespread in groundwater and of great toxicity. Advanced oxidation processes, such as the ferrous iron (Fe2+)-activated persulfate process, have been proven to be effective for organic pollutants. However, few studies have focused on the effects of coexisting ions on the degradation of aniline. In this study, the degradation efficiency of aniline and the effects of common ...

Boron nitride nanoplates supported zero-valent iron nanocomposites for enhanced decolorization of methyl orange with the assistance of ultrasonic irradiation

In this work, boron nitride nanoplates (BNNPs) supported nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) was prepared through facile liquid-phase chemical reduction of ferric ion by borohydride under ambient conditions in the presence of BNNPs. The nZVI@BNNPs hybrids were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and magnetic properties measurement. The hybrid material was evaluated ...

Efficacy of vacuum ultraviolet photolysis for bromate and chlorate removal

We introduce vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photolysis at 172 nm as a more efficient process for bromate and chlorate removal than conventional ultraviolet (UV) photolysis at 254 nm. We discuss the effects of pH and coexisting salts on VUV photolysis. In experiments at various pH levels, the VUV photolysis performance decreased in the alkaline region for pH above 7. Furthermore, nitrate and inorganic ...

Fenton oxidation of gallic and p-coumaric acids in water assisted by an activated carbon cloth

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the presence of an activated carbon cloth (ACC) during the degradation and removal of gallic acid (GA) and p-coumaric acid (pCA) by Fenton oxidation using H2O2 and FeSO4 as catalyst. Removal of GA or pCA by Fenton oxidation was much higher than that of total organic carbon (TOC), indicating that a large proportion of GA or pCA ...

Photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical inactivation of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus

Water disinfection usually requires expensive chemicals or equipment. Chlorination is a common disinfection method, although it is not able to inactivate all pathogens. High concentrations of residual chlorine also cause an unpleasant taste and smell in drinking water. As an alternative, photocatalysis and photoelectrochemical treatment has a high disinfection potential in drinking water by ...

Enhanced decomposition of 1,4-dioxane in water by ozonation under alkaline condition

1,4-Dioxane is a probable human carcinogenic and refractory substance that is widely detected in aquatic environments. Traditional wastewater treatment processes, including activated sludge, cannot remove 1,4-dioxane. Removing 1,4-dioxane with a reaction kinetic constant of 0.32 L/(mol·s) by using ozone, a strong oxidant, is difficult. However, under alkaline environment, ozone generates ...
