Environmental risks posed by discharge of the emerging contaminant antimony (Sb) into water bodies have raised global concerns recently. The toxicity of Sb has been shown to be species-dependent, with Sb(III) demonstrating much greater toxicity than Sb(V). Here, we proposed an electrochemical filtration system to achieve rapid detoxification of Sb(III) via a non-radical pathway. The key to this technology was an electroactive carbon nanotube filter functionalized with nanoscale Ti-Ce binary oxide. Under an electric field, in situ generated H₂O₂ could react with the Ti-Ce binary oxide to produce hydroperoxide complexes, which enabled an efficient transformation of Sb(III) to the less toxic Sb(V) (τ < 2 s) at neutral pH. The impact of important operational parameters was assessed and optimized, and system efficacy could be maintained over a wide pH range and long-term operation. An optimum detoxification efficiency of > 90% was achieved using lake water spiked with Sb(III) at 500 μg/L. The results showed that Ti/Ce-hydroperoxo surface complexes were the dominant species responsible for the non-radical oxidation of Sb(III) based on extensive experimental evidences and advanced characterizations. This study provides a robust and effective strategy for the detoxification of water containing Sb(III) and other similar heavy metal ions by integrating state-of-the-art advanced oxidation processes, electrochemistry and nano-filtration technology.
