| Abstract | An efficient Fenton-type nano-catalyst consisting of Cu, Ti and Al lattice-doped dandelion-like silica nanospheres (d-TiCuAl–SiO2 Ns) was successfully prepared via a hydrothermal process for the first time. The lattice substitution of Cu, Ti and Al for Si initiated a higher and a lower electron density of the lattice O2− around the lattice Cu and near the lattice Ti & Al, respectively, through the higher electronegativity of Cu on the basis of extended X-ray absorption fine structure, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and electron paramagnetic resonance measurement. Thus, countless surface galvanic-like cells formed between the electron-rich Cu center (cathode) and the electron-deficient Ti and Al region (anode) on the nanospheres, enhancing the selective adsorption of H2O2 on d-TiCuAl–SiO2 Ns. This kind of surface structure facilitated the reduction of H2O2 to ˙OH at the cathode and induced the oxidation of organic radical intermediates (˙R) on the anode through the delivery of the electron of ˙R to the cathode during the Fenton reaction, which resulted in almost all of the energy of H2O2 being applied to the degradation of pollutants. Therefore, d-TiCuAl–SiO2 Ns were highly effective and stable for persistent contaminant degradation at neutral pH values, which was ∼10 times higher than that of the conventional Fenton catalysts. Moreover, the utilization efficiency of H2O2 has been maintained at a very high level throughout the Fenton reaction. Our findings indicated that the special surface design of nanoparticles could be applied toward the improvement of Fenton reaction efficiency and utilization of H2O2. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
