Efficient sulfate radical-based advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOPs) are important for treating organic contaminants of industrial wastewater. To achieve this goal, tannic acid (TA)–modified skin collagen fibers (CFs) were prepared for the enhanced immobilization of Fe³⁺ based on multiple complexation interactions, resulting in a heterogeneous catalyst with more catalytic sites (defined as TA-Fe-CFs) for activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS). During the removal of an organic dye (rhodamine B, RhB) from water, the hierarchical TA-Fe-CFs exhibited excellent adsorption capacity at the early stage before the introduction of PMS, which can be ascribed to the π-π interaction between TA and aromatic RhB. Such improved mass transfer of target contaminants into the catalytic support was proved to be beneficial for improving the utilization efficiency of sulfate radicals in subsequent SR-AOPs. After introducing PMS, the reductive TA moieties of the heterogeneous catalyst were able to accelerate the redox cycle of Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ in Fenton reactions, facilitating the activation of PMS to generate sulfate radicals for the degradation of organic RhB.
