Peroxymonosulfate (PMS)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for wastewater treatment have recently attracted widespread interests. However, the degradation of organic pollutants via traditional radical-dominated pathway is severely limited by the side reactions between radicals and the coexisting inorganic anions, especially under high salinity conditions. Herein, an efficient Fe/O co-doped g-C(3)N(4)nanosheet catalyst was synthesized to dominantly activate PMS through a dual non-radical pathway with the singlet oxygen and high-valent iron-oxo species (Fe(V) = O). The rapid degradation of model pollutant bisphenol A (BPA) was achieved by dosing PMS (1 mM), catalyst (0.1 g/L) in a simulated high salt wastewater (>= 200 mM) of the developed Fe/O-doped g-C3N4 + PMS system with a reaction rate constant of 1204-fold higher than that in g-C3N4 + PMS system. The O and Fe co-dopants could reconfigurate the electronic structure of pristine g-C3N4 to produce more non-radical active species. The formed Fe(V) = O played a main role in the BPA degradation by promoting electron transfer from BPA molecule to the "metastable PMS/catalyst complex", which was verified by electrochemical tests and density functional theory calculations. The auxiliary transient productions of center dot OH + SO4 center dot- species were also favorable for the pollutant degradation. Excellent reusability in a wide pH range confirmed the practical application prospects of the Fe/O-doped g-C3N4 + PMS system. The successive addition of PMS with a low dosage into the system rich in pollutants was confirmed to favor the PMS utilization. Our work unveils the potential applications of a non-radical dominated process for the decontamination of organic pollutants in saline water. (c) 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
