Comparing the Efficiency of N-Doped TiO2 and N-Doped Bi2MoO6 Photo Catalysts for MB and Lignin Photodegradation
摘要： In this study, we tested the efficiency of nitrogen-doped titanium dioxide (N-TiO2) and nitrogen-doped bismuth molybdate (N-Bi2MoO6) compounds as photocatalysts capable of degrading methylene blue and lignin molecules under irradiation with ultraviolet (UV) and visible light (VIS). Moreover, we compared TiO2 and Bi2MoO6 catalysts with N-TiO2 and N-Bi2MoO6 compounds using chemical coprecipitation. The catalysts were prepared starting from Ti(OCH2CH2CH3)4, Bi(NO3)3·5H2O, and (NH4)6Mo7O24 reagents. N-doping was achieved in a continuous reflux system, using ethylene diamine as a nitrogen source. The resulting materials were characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Additionally, we observed the decrease in particle size after processing the compounds in the reflux system. The results regarding photocatalytic degradation tests show a remarkable effect for nitrogen doped samples, achieving 90% of lignin degradation.

Ultrasound assisted deposition of highly stable self-assembled Bi2MoO6 nanoplates with selective crystal facet engineering as photoanode
摘要： The use of crystal facets of photocatalysts is well known as a promising strategy for the design of new photocatalysts with interesting physicochemical features for energy production applications. In this work, Bi2MoO6 thin films were synthesized by two methods, electrodeposition and sonoelectrodeposition. Preferential growth orientation depended on synthesis method. Results suggested that sonoelectrodeposition led to dominate the crystal facet {1 0 0} growth with self-assembled nanoplate morphologies while growth orientation in the {0 1 0} facet was dominant in electrodeposition in the absence of ultrasonic waves. As a highlight result, the {1 0 0} facet shows a smaller band gap, higher photocatalytic water splitting than the {0 1 0} facet. Efficient separation of charge pairs and long life time of photogenerated electrons was observed to be intrinsic features of the {1 0 0} facets. The higher charge transfer was confirmed by a higher photocurrent from linear sweep voltammetry and a smaller Nyquist radius arc. Ultrasound plays a key role in growth orientation and led to a production of homogeneous films with nanoplates which self-assembled together to form a flower-like structure. While in the absence of ultrasound the film has coral-like structure. Highly stable sonoelectrodeposited films exhibited incident photon-to-electron conversion efficiency (IPCE) of 22.4% at the specific wavelength of 500 nm. The sonoelectrodeposition method could act as a promising method for forming new films with specific crystal facet selection and developing as highly efficient photoanodes for PEC water splitting.
