Abstract

To effectively remove toxic organic pollutants from the highly concentrated sewage, a Fe(II, III) and heteroatom (S, N)-incorporated bio-carbon (Fe(II, III)@HIC) was prepared from cicada slough (CS) by one-step hydrothermal process. Fe-doped particles on the material’s surface present a mesh network structure, which helps the dye to adhere. The introduced Fe2+ and Fe3+ endow the prepared Fe(II, III)@HIC with prominent oxidation characteristic toward organic pollutants. Owing to the unique mesh structure and surface properties, the prepared Fe(II, III)@HIC remove 93.69% of Congo red (CR), 99.87% of methylene blue (MB), and 90.32% of tetracycline (TC) from wastewater at concentrations up to 300 mg/L in 240 min. In addition, the removal effect toward organic dye is little affected by pH and concentration of coexisting salt ions. This work provides an ideal strategy for the purification of industrial sewage containing highly concentrated organic pollution.
