A novel light source UV-C laser was applied in persulfate (PS) activation to effectively remove iodinated X-ray contrast medias (ICMs) including iohexol (IOX), iopamidol (IPM) and diatrizoate (DTZ) in this study. Significant ICMs degradation was observed in UV-C laser/PS systems with pseudo first-order rate constants of 0.022-0.067 s(-1). Sulfate radicals (SO4 center dot-) were the main active species in the three ICMs degradation, and the steady-state concentrations ([SO4 center dot-] ss) were 3.629 x 10(-11) M (IOX), 1.702 x 10(-11) M (IPM) and 1.148 x 10(-11) M (DTZ), respectively. Under the high intensity of UV-C laser, the optimal reaction efficiency was achieved at pH= 7.0with PS concentration of 1.0mM, and the degradation efficiency for IOX reached 93.8% within only 40 s. Both bicarbonate and chloride ions could inhibit the three ICMs degradation and the inhibition rate increased with the increase of ions concentration. The kinetic models were established and the steady-state concentrations of radicals were calculated. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations combined with experiments were used to derive the reaction pathways for three ICMs. Cyclic voltammetrymeasurements detected a lower redox potential peak in IOX degradation, revealing the existence of electron shuttles under the UV-C laser irradiation to promote the redox reaction. This study is the first report ofUV-C laser activation of persulfate. It is a new advanced oxidation process mediated by very effective photolysis and active species formation. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V.
