RESUMO
Sea has historically been subject to high anthropogenic pressures of direct and indirect loads of emerging organic pollutants (EOPs) from intensive industrial and agricultural activities. Photoactivated periodate (UV/IO4-) is an innovative oxidation technique that was never tested in seawater as pollutants matrix. In this work, we attempted to investigate the treatment of seawater contaminated with chlorazol black (CB) dye, as a model of EOPs, using photoactivated periodate process. It was found that periodate (0.5mM) assisted-UV treatment of CB (20mgL-1) in seawater resulted in 13.16-fold increase in the initial degradation rate, compared to UV alone, and 82% of CB was removed after 40min face to 38% under UV alone. The beneficial effect of UV/IO4- treatment is strongly dependent on operational parameters. More interestingly, SDS surfactant, as an organic matter, did not affect the degradation process, making UV/IO4- a promising technique for treating seawater contaminated with EOPs.

Rapid, efficient and selective alkene epoxidation and alkane hydroxylation with sodium periodate catalyzed by Mn (TPyP) supported on chloromethylated polystyrene, [Mn(TPyP)-CMP], under ultrasonic irradiation were reported. This catalytic system showed high selectivity in epoxidation of stilbenes and R-(+)-limonene and exhibits a particular ability to epoxidize linear alkenes such as 1-heptene. This supported catalyst can catalyze the oxidation of very inert saturated hydrocarbons as well as alkylbenzene derivatives with NaIO4 under ultrasonic irradiation. Under mild reaction conditions, this catalyst was consecutive reused five times without detectable catalyst leaching and gave over 95% epoxide yield in the epoxidation of styrene.
