[Display omitted] • Zero-added conversion of chicken manure into water treatment catalyst (RCM) is realized. • Electron-poor/rich microregions are successfully constructed on RCM. • Pollutant degradation processes can be driven by a little bit of peroxymonosulfate. • RCM has excellent performance on actual wastewater treatment. • Water treatment with low consumption is achieved by utilization of pollutants. Fecal pollution in rural areas and water pollution caused by emerging contaminants (ECs) are two international environmental problems. Here, we propose a new strategy to address the two problems simultaneously through the resource utilization and harmless transformation of poultry manure as a kind of water purification catalyst with zero addition. The ordered bonding of intrinsic metal-organic species is realized in the resourcelized procedure by a one-stage calcination-annealing method, which results in the formation of electron-rich/poor microregions. With the triggering of a small amount of peroxymonosulfate (PMS), the energy/electrons of ECs are utilized by the dissolved oxygen in water driven by the electron-rich/poor microregions on the catalyst surface. As a result, the system exhibits excellent performance in removing various ECs. The degradation rate can even be maintained above 94.3 % after 10,000 cycles. This work indicates a sustainable approach to the effective utilization and treatment of rural waste and pollutants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
