▎ 摘　　要

Three-dimensional graphene-like biochar derived from Enteromorpha (EGB) was prepared as a persulfate (PS) activator for sulfamethoxazole (SMX) degradation. The graphitic N in the EGB samples not only endowed the superior binding energy towards SMX adsorption, but also promote the PS binding with the EGB, which was crucial to the catalytic degradation of SMX in EGB/PS system. Different from the radical-based oxidation in biochar prepared at 400 degrees C via the persistent free radicals (PFRs), both O-1(2) and surface electron transfer served as non-radical pathways in the EGB samples prepared above 500 degrees C, acting together with free radicals (O-2(center dot-)) on SMX degradation. Oxidation of SMX and its substructural analogues indicated that the selective oxidizing reaction occurred in the EGB/PS system and the isoxazole ring in SMX molecule was insensitive to be attacked O-1(2). In addition, toxicity predication indicated that the overall biotoxicity of the intermediates during SMX degradation was decreased.
