ABSTRACT
In-situ hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) finds applications in disinfection and oxidation processes. Photoproduction of H2O2 from water and oxygen, avoids reliance upon organic chemicals, and potentially enables smaller-sized or lower-cost reactors than electrochemical methods. In ultrapure water, we previously demonstrated a novel dual-fiber system coupling a light emitting diode (LED) with a metal-organic framework (MOF) catalyst-coated optical fiber (POF-MIL-101(Fe)) and O2-based hollow-membrane fibers and achieved a remarkable H2O2 yield, 308 ± 1.4 mM h-1 catalyst-g-1. To enable H2O2 production anywhere we sought to understand the impacts of common water quality parameters. The production of H2O2 was not affected by added sodium, potassium, hydroxide, sulfate or nitrate ions. There was consistent performance over a wide pH range (4-10), maintaining a high production rate of 232 ± 3.5 mM h-1 catalyst-g-1 even at pH 10, a condition typically unfavorable for H2O2 photoproduction. Chloride ions produced hypochlorous acid, consuming in-situ produced H2O2. Phosphate adsorption on the iron-based MOF catalysts blocked H2O2 production. Inorganic carbon species inhibited H2O2 production due to in-situ formic acid. Encouraging results were obtained using atmospheric water (i.e., condensate), with rates reaching 288 ± 6.1 mM h-1 catalyst-g-1, comparable to ultrapure water. This underscores atmospheric water as a variable alternative, available in nearly all building air conditioning systems or could overcome geographical constraints, particularly in regions where obtaining pure water resources is challenging, offering a cost-effective solution. The dual-fiber reactor using atmospheric water enables high-efficiency H2O2 production anytime and anywhere.
