This study demonstrated that nitrogen-doped carbon materials (NCMs) could effectively catalyze the chlorine elimination process in hexachloroethane (HCA) declorination in sulfide-containing environments for the first time. The kₒbₛ values of HCA dechlorination by sulfide in the presence of 10 mg/L NCMs were higher than that of no mediator at pH 7.3 by one or two orders of magnitude. The catalytic capabilities of NCMs on HCA dechlorination were evident in common ranges of natural pH (5.3–8.9) and it could be accelerated by the increase of pH but be suppressed by the presence of dissolved humic acid. Moreover, NCMs exhibited much better catalytic capability on HCA dechlorination compared to the carbon materials, mainly owing to the combined contributions of pyridine N, including enhanced nucleophilic attack to HCA molecule by generating newborn C–S–S and activation of HCA molecule by elongating C–Cl bonds. The functions of pyridine N in micron-sized NCMs with mesopores were better than in nano-sized NCMs on HCA dechlorination. These findings displayed the potential of NCMs, when released into sulfide-containing environments, may significantly increase the dechlorination of chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons.
