The present study has focused on the degradation of phenazopyridine (PhP) as an emerging contaminant through catalytic ozonation by novel plasma treated natural limonite (FeOOH·xH 2 O, NL) under argon atmosphere (PTL/Ar). The physical and chemical characteristics of samples were evaluated with different analyses. The obtained results demonstrated higher surface area for PTL/Ar and negligible change in crystal structure, compared to NL. It was found that the synergistic effect between ozone and PTL/Ar nanocatalyst was led to highest PhP degradation efficiency. The kinetic study confirmed the pseudo-first-order reaction for the PhP degradation processes included adsorption, peroxone and ozonation, catalytic ozonation with NL and PTL/Ar. Long term application (6 cycles) confirmed the high stability of the PTL/Ar. Moreover, different organic and inorganic salts as well as the dissolved ozone concentration demonstrated the predominant role of hydroxyl radicals and superoxide radicals in PhP degradation by catalytic Ozonation using PTL/Ar. The main produced intermediates during PhP oxidation by PTL/Ar catalytic ozonation were identified using LC–(+ESI)–MS technique. Finally, the negligible iron leaching, higher mineralization rate, lower electrical energy consumption and excellent catalytic activity of PTL/Ar samples demonstrate the superior application of non-thermal plasma for treatment of NL.
