UV activation of the pi bond in pyridine for efficient pyridine degradation and mineralization by UV/H2O2 treatment.

Abstract:

:Pyridine and organics containing pyridine rings are widely used but persist in the environment and cause toxic pollution. Due to the attraction of the nitrogen atoms to the electrons in the pi bond, the pyridine ring is difficult to oxidize by oxidant. Here, we propose that ultraviolet (UV) irradiation activates the electrons in the pi bond and enables combination with the hydroxyl radical (OH) originating from hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to eliminate pyridine quickly and mineralize the byproducts. The removal rates of pyridine and total organic carbon (TOC) were compared in different treatments: UV irradiation, UV/H2O2 treatment and Fenton oxidation with different initial pyridine concentrations, pH values and H2O2 concentrations. The UV/H2O2 treatment yielded a higher pyridine removal rate and greater mineralization than the other treatments. The removal rate of pyridine was highest in neutral aqueous solution and H2O2 concentration of 10 mM. At an initial H2O2 concentration of 10 mM, more than 90% of the pyridine was degraded in 10 min, and approximately 70% of the TOC was removed in 60 min. The absorption of UV light at 254 nm by the pi bond of pyridine can accelerate the damage to the stable pyridine structure, especially in the presence of OH. This study provides a promising alternative for the removal and mineralization of pyridine ring-containing materials.
