Anchored atomic Ru-O4 architecture enables ultra-effective Fe(VI) activation via avoiding Fe(VI) self-decay for water purification

Abstract Ferrate (Fe(VI)) is a prospective green oxidant owing to producing highly reactive Fe(IV)/Fe(V) for micropollutant degradation. However, the performance is significantly compromised by the severe side reaction of Fe(VI) self-decay with H2O, generating H2O2 byproduct that quickly quenches Fe...
