Abstract: This study investigated the mechanisms of forming reactive species to degrade micropollutants through the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) by phosphate, a prevalent ion in wastewater. Considering the density functional theory results, the formation of hydrogen bonds between phosphate and PMS molecules might be the crucial step in the overall reactions, which prefers producing ⋅OH and reactive phosphate species (RPS, namely H2PO4⋅, HPO4⋅-, and PO4⋅2-) to yielding SO4⋅-. Besides, in the phosphate (5 mM)/PMS system at pH = 8, HPO4⋅- was modeled to be the dominant radical with a steady-state concentration of 3.6 × 10-12 M, which was 666 and 773 times higher than those of ⋅OH and SO4⋅-. The contributions of 1O2, ⋅OH, SO4⋅-, and RPS to the micropollutant decomposition in phosphate/PMS were studied, and RPS were found to be selective for micropollutants with electron-donating moieties (such as phenolic and aniline groups). Additionally, the degradation pathways of bisphenol A, diclofenac, ibuprofen, and atrazine in phosphate/PMS were proposed according to the detected transformation products. Cytotoxicity analysis was carried out to evaluate the potential environmental impacts resulting from the degradation of micropollutants by phosphate/PMS. This study confirmed the significance of RPS for micropollutant degradation during PMS-based treatment in phosphate-rich scenarios.
