Cover Story: In this study, heteroatom-doped (S, P, B) carbon nitride coupled with NH2-MIL-53(Fe) was used to synthesize X-Fe@CN, which was then used for the activation of persulfate (PMS) for the reduction of trace organic contaminants (TOrCs). Through performance evaluations on the catalytic activity and iron leaching of X-Fe@CN in the degradation of dicamba (DIC) and atenolol (ATL) by activating PMS, B-Fe@CN and PB-Fe@CN were identified as efficient and stable catalysts. The results suggested the surface reaction mechanism was that B-Fe@CN’s surface defects, O-B-O, and pyrrolic nitrogen can adsorb PMS and initiate the formation of ·OH, SO4•−, and 1O2. The addition of P to the catalyst’s surface boosts electron transfers and, consequently, the activation of PMS. View this paper
