The oxidizing capacity of the Ni catalyst/oxyanion varied depending on the oxyanion type. Ni catalyst/PMS (or HOCl) degraded a broad spectrum of organics, whereas PDS enabled selective phenol oxidation. This stemmed from the differential reactivity of two high-valent Ni intermediates, Ni(III) and Ni(IV). A high similarity with Ni(III)OOH in a substrate-specific reactivity indicated the role of Ni(III) as the primary oxidant of Ni-activated PDS. With the minor progress of redox reactions with radical probes and multiple spectroscopic evidence on moderate Ni(III) accumulation, the significant elimination of non-phenolic contaminants by NiOOH/PMS (or HOCl) suggested the involvement of Ni(IV) in the substrate-insensitive treatment capability of Ni catalyst/PMS (or HOCl). Since the electron-transfer oxidation of organics by high-valent Ni species involved Ni(II) regeneration, the loss of the treatment efficiency of Ni/oxyanion was marginal over multiple catalytic cycles.
