An ultra-efficient electro-Fenton catalyst with porous carbon coated Fe-Mo metal (FeMo@PC), was prepared by calcining MIL-53(Fe)@MoO₃. This FeMo@PC-2 exhibited impressive catalytic performance for sulfamethazine (SMT) degradation with a high turnover frequency value (7.89 L/(g·min)), much better than most of reported catalysts. The mineralization current efficiency and electric energy consumption were 83.2% and 0.03 kWh/gTOC, respectively, at low current (5 mA) and small dosage of catalyst (25.0 mg/L). The removal rate of heterogeneous electro-Fenton (Hetero-EF) process catalyzed by FeMo@PC-2 was 4.58 times that of Fe@PC/Hetero-EF process. Because the internal-micro-electrolysis occurred between PC and Fe⁰, while the co-catalysis of Mo accelerated the rate-limiting step of the Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ cycle and greatly improved the H₂O₂ utilization efficiency. The results of radical scavenger experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance confirmed the main role of surface-bound hydroxyl radical oxidation. This process was feasible to remove diverse organic contaminants such as phenol, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, carbamazepine and SMT. This paper enlightened the importance of the doped Mo, which could greatly improve the activity of the iron-carbon heterogeneous catalyst derived from metal-organic frameworks in EF process for efficient removal of organic contaminants.
