Abstract:

The electro-Fenton (EF) technique has attracted great interest in the treatment of landfill leachate concentrate (LLC). Active carbon fiber (ACF) was modified with graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) through a wet ultrasonic impregnation-calcination process, which enhanced the production of H2O2 and regeneration of active Fe(ii) in an EF system. The experiments on physicochemical characterization demonstrated that the modified ACF was provided with more active sites and the hydrophobicity of the electrode was improved, facilitating the O-2 mass transfer. Through comparison with pristine ACF, g-C3N4/ACF and CNTs/ACF, electrochemical experiments showed that g-C3N4/CNTs/ACF exhibited the best performance on the electrocatalytic activity of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and electron transfer efficiency attributed to the synergetic effect of g-C3N4 and CNTs. Fulvic acids (FA) were used to simulate LLC to investigate the effect of operational parameters on EF performance. Under optimal conditions, H2O2 production of g-C3N4/CNTs/ACF reached 132 mg L-1 with an H2O2 generation rate of 3.96 mg h(-1) cm(-2) and 86% FA was removed with a kinetic rate of 0.046 within 2 h. Simultaneously, the concentration of dissolved Fe2+ in the system increased from 2.5 mg L-1 to 6.4 mg L-1 after modification, thus continuously reacting with H2O2 to produce more OH. Remarkably, an excellent EF performance was achieved with g-C3N4/CNTs/ACF in the treatment of LLC, where 74.7% of TOC was removed with an economical energy consumption of 5.76 kW h kg(TOC)(-1) and biodegradability was improved significantly, as concluded from the results of UV-vis and a 3D excitation-emission matrix (EEM). After 10 cycles, H2O2 production could still reach 120 mg L-1 and the mineralization rate remained at 66%. This work develops an efficient, cost-effective, and durable EF cathode for the treatment of LLC.
