Enhanced photocatalytic activity and stability of AgBr/BiOBr/graphene heterojunction for phenol degradation under visible light
摘要： In this work, we have reported synthesis of AgBr/BiOBr photocatalyst supported on graphene (Gr) using facile precipitation method. AgBr/BiOBr/Gr was characterized using various spectral techniques like FESEM, TEM, XRD, FTIR, XPS, Raman and PL analyses. AgBr/BiOBr/Gr had improved visible light absorption. PL studies indicated the reduction in recombination of photogenerated electron hole pair of AGBr/BiOBr/Gr. AFM analysis con?rmed the thickness of AGBr/BiOBr/Gr was less than 8.0 nm. The higher dispersibility of photocatalyst was ascertained by Tyndall effect. AgBr/BiOBr/Gr photocatalyst was effectively used for the photodegradation of phenol from simulated water. The phenol degradation process was remarkably in?uenced by adsorption process. The concurrent adsorption and photocatalytic was effective for degradation of phenol. The phenol was completely mineralized into CO2 and H2O in 6 h. The degradation process followed pseudo ?rst order kinetics. The results con?rmed that integration of AgBr/BiOBr with graphene caused an increase in photocatalytic activity due to reduced recombination of photogenerated electron hole pair and electron sink behavior of graphene for photogenerated electrons of BiOBr. AgBr/BiOBr/Gr photocatalyst displayed signi?cant stability and recyclability for ten catalytic cycles.

Fabrication of Ag3VO4 decorated phosphorus and sulphur co-doped graphitic carbon nitride as a high-dispersed photocatalyst for phenol mineralization and E. Coli disinfection
摘要： In this work, we have successfully anchored Ag3VO4 (AV) onto P and S co-doped g-C3N4 (PSGCN) to prepare high-dispersible AV/PSGCN photocatalyst via a deposition-precipitation method. The P and S co-doped g-C3N4 was synthesized via thermal polycondensation using hexachlorotriphosphazene (HCCP) and thiourea as precursors. AV/PSGCN was characterized using various spectral techniques. The atomic force analysis indicated that the thickness of AV/PSGCN was less than 3.0 nm. The zeta potential and Tyndall effect experiments ascertained formation of the well-dispersed suspension of AV/PSGCN in water. The co-doping resulted in lowering optical band gap of g-C3N4. The photoluminescence and electrochemical impedance analysis indicated suppression in recombination of photogenerated electron and hole pairs in AV/PSGCN. The photodegradation of phenol followed pseudo-first order kinetics. Hydroxyl radicals and holes were the two main reactive species for photodegradation of phenol. The COD, HPLC and LC-MS analyses confirmed mineralization of phenol in 6 h. Unlike conventional slurry type photo-reactors, AV/PSGCN was not magnetically agitated during photocatalytic reactions. AV/PSGCN exhibited significant antibacterial activity for E.Coli disinfection. The photodegradation of phenol and bacterial disinfection occurred through hole and hydroxyl radical formation mechanism.
