Tangential veneer fabrication of Fenton-like catalyst for the removal of organic dye from wastewater

Abstract

The exploitation of low-cost, non-fossil membrane materials with flourishing pore structure is essential to complete an organic dye wastewater treatment in Fenton-like catalytic technology. The accessible and scalable veneer functionalized Fenton-like catalysis has been manufactured to decolorize the effluents by a hydrogen peroxide-Mn-based oxides system. The nanocatalyst of Mn-based oxides has been loaded on the veneer surface by the hydrothermal in-situ growth, which could accomplish the coupling of Fenton-like catalyst and membrane technology. Fir and poplar veneers with unique three-dimensional porous structure have been investigated in detail to manifest the respective performance of decolorization during the dye wastewater treatment. This work not only has invented a promising membrane material coupling with Fenton-like catalysis to dispose dye wastewater, but also provides a reference in high-performance membrane design of biomimetic membrane.
