The transformation of organic pollutants by stabilized nano-FeS in oxic conditions is far less understood than in anoxic states. Herein, carboxymethyl cellulose-stabilized FeS (CMC-FeS) nanofluids are prepared at a CMC-to-FeS mass ratio of 1/2 and their performance of tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) degradation under oxic conditions was investigated. Here, we showed that TC could be efficiently removed by oxygenation of CMC-FeS nanofluids at neutral initial pH. We found that CMC-FeS dosages as low as 15 mg/L can achieve the TC removal efficiency as high as 99.1% at an initial TC concentration of 50 mg/L. Oxidative degradation plays a predominated role in TC removal (accounting for 58.0%), adsorption has the second importance (accounting for 37.0%), and reduction has minor impact (accounting for 4.1%) toward TC removal. Electron spin resonance assays, fluorescent detection using coumarin as a probe, and radical scavenging experiments confirm that hydroxy radicals (•OH), both in free and surface-bound forms, contribute to oxidation of TC. Humic acids brought detrimental effects on TC removal and therefore should be biologically degraded in advance. This work offers a facile and cost-effective solution to decontaminate TC in natural and engineered water bodies.
