Facile Synthesis of Atomic Fe‐N‐C Materials and Dual Roles Investigation of Fe‐N4 Sites in Fenton‐Like Reactions

Abstract Fenton‐like reactions with persulfates as the oxidants have attracted increasing attentions for the remediation of emerging antibiotic pollutions. However, developing effective activators with outstanding activities and long‐term stabilities remains a great challenge in these reactions. Her...
