Abstract:
:To elucidate the effect of structure and property of biochar on the structure-activity relationship among the composites of biochar supported Pd/Fe and 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (1,2,4-TCB) and its dechlorination products, biochar supported Pd/Fe nanoparticles with different mass ratios were investigated for the enhanced removal of 1,2,4-TCB (52 μmol/L) and its dechlorination products. 1,2,4-TCB was removed through the electrochemical dechlorination by Pd/Fe and adsorption by biochar simultaneously. As the mass ratio of CS700 to Pd/Fe was 0.1:1, biochar within the Pd/Fe-CS7000.1 system played a significant role in the adsorption of 1,2,4-TCB. However, there is little adsorption to biochar for dechlorination products due to strong competition by 1,2,4-TCB. As the mass ratio of CS700 to Pd/Fe was increased to 5:1, 1,2,4-TCB was completely removed from the solution by the composites within 0.5 h. The dechlorination products (1,2-DCB, MCB, benzene and trace 1,3-DCB) were completely sequestered on solid phase but absent in aqueous solution. However, the excessive biochar increased the inaccessibility of 1,2,4-TCB or decreased the reactive sites of Pd/Fe leading to the less dechlorination of 1,2,4-TCB. The alkaline biochar did not influence the chemical reactivity of Pd/Fe in the composites and buffered the acid and alkaline solutions with pH being maintained at neutral conditions under initial pH ranging from 3.07 to 10.03. The highly hydrophobicity of biochar could maintain the affinity of the composite for the chlorinated compounds even if the concentration of 1,2,4-TCB was up to 80.9% of its aqueous solubility. This study provides efficient synergistic removal support for the treatment of TCB affected groundwater.
