Fig. 6: Toxicity analysis and environmental application.

a Fathead minnow LC50-96 h and b Daphnia magna LC50-48 h of bisphenol A (BPA) and its degradation intermediates. Flow cytometry analysis of E. coli cells during BPA degradation in FeN5-SD2/PMS system at different reaction time: c 0 min, d 40 min. The four sections in flow cytometry images represent as below: Q1 dead cells; Q2 late apoptotic cells; Q3 early apoptotic cells; Q4 live cells. e Schematic illustration of wastewater treatment process. f PVDF/FeN5-SD2 membrane. g Photograph of the wastewater treatment experimental equipment. h Water flux of different membranes during the continuous-flow process. Insets show the averaged water flux values. i Removal efficiency of different systems. j BPA removal efficiency and Fe leaching of PVDF/FeN5-SD2 membrane system in different water matrices.
