Integrating Frontier Scientific Research into Water Pollution Control Engineering Teaching:Preparation of Multi-shell Nanoparticles and Advanced Oxidation Processes for Degrading Tetracycline
A water pollution control engineering experiment was designed for the activation of persulfate by multi-shell CeO2 nanoparticles to degrade tetracycline hydrochloride.CeO2 doped carbon microspheres were synthesized by hydrothermal method,followed by calcination to obtain multi shell CeO2 nanoparticles.Finally,the multi shell CeO2 nanoparticles were activated with persulfate(PMS)for the degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride.This experiment can enable students to have a deep understanding of the principles of advanced oxidation technology,exercise their ability to prepare nanoparticles and use instruments and equipment,understand characterization techniques,understand the significance of controlling variables in multivariate experiments,and cultivate their scientific literacy.
