A Review on BiOX (X= Cl, Br and I) Nano-/Microstructures for Their Photocatalytic Applications
摘要: In the recent past, bismuth oxyhalides (BiOX) have been widely used for the photocatalytic degradation of the organic pollutants and other environmental remediation because of their higher stability, economic viability, nontoxicity and effective charge separation. We begin with the review of the different approaches adopted so far for BiOX (X = Cl, Br, and I) synthesis and a study of their photocatalytic performances under UV and visible light towards the various organic as well as inorganic pollutants. Later on, a study on further enhancement of the ef?ciency of BiOX under UV and visible light irradiation using recent advancements would be presented. The new approaches involve controlled morphology by forming composite and hybrid materials with other semiconductors and also doping with other metals and nonmetals that would undoubtedly be bene?cial in the interfacial charge transfer and ef?cient inhibition of the photo-generated species. Herein, we would also exploit the recent developments in the research strategies for enhancing photocatalytic activity of BiOX.

Application of BiOX Photocatalysts in Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants
摘要: Bismuth oxyhalides have recently gained attention for their promise as photocatalysts. Due to their layered structure, these materials present fascinating and highly desirable physicochemical properties including visible light photocatalytic capability and improved charge separation. While bismuth oxyhalides have been rigorously evaluated for the photocatalytic degradation of dyes and many synthesis strategies have been employed to enhance this property, relatively little work has been done to test them against pharmaceuticals and pesticides. These persistent organic pollutants are identified as emerging concerns by the EPA and effective strategies must be developed to combat them. Here, we review recent work directed at characterizing the nature of the interactions between bismuth oxyhalides and persistent organic pollutants using techniques including LC-MS/MS for the determination of photocatalytic degradation intermediates and radical scavenging to determine active species during photocatalytic degradation. The reported investigations indicate that the high activity of bismuth oxyhalides for the breakdown of persistent organic pollutants from water can be largely attributed to the strong oxidizing power of electron holes in the valence band. Unlike conventional catalysts like TiO2, these catalysts can also function in ambient solar conditions. This suggests a much wider potential use for these materials as green catalysts for industrial photocatalytic transformation, particularly in flow chemistry applications.

Synthesis of N-F-codoped TiO2/SiO2 nanocomposites as a visible and sunlight response photocatalyst for simultaneous degradation of organic water pollutants and reduction of Cr (VI)
摘要: A new N-F-codoped TiO2/SiO2 nanocomposite was prepared by simple sol-gel method, and strongly stabilized on a substrate used in a fabricated photoreactor. The prepared photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, diffuse re?ectance UV/Vis, photoluminescence, ?eld emission scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray, transmission electron microscope, and N2 adsorption/desorption methods. The effective parameters of pH, ?ow rate of the incoming current, and the photoreactor tubes angle against sunlight were optimized. The photocatalytic performance of prepared photocatalysts was evaluated by studying the simultaneous removal of a mixture containing three azo dyes and Cr (VI) in the fabricated continuous-?ow photoreactor under visible and solar irradiation. The performance of the designed system was also proved under various outdoor climate conditions. Total organic carbon and ?ame atomic absorption spectroscopy analysis were performed on the treated sample to con?rm the decontamination of the model pollutant mixture. It was found that doping N and F in TiO2/SiO2 nanoparticles caused least agglomeration, enhanced activity under visible and solar irradiation, and fully anatase crystalline structure in the as-synthesized nanoparticles.

Fabrication of ternary visible-light-driven semiconductor photocatalyst and its effective photocatalytic performance
摘要: Heterogeneous semiconductor photocatalysis has been considered as a cost-effective alternative for the eliminating hazardous pollutants and generating sustainable energy. Graphene, a 2D allotrope of carbon, has received significant attentions due to its outstanding properties. In this work, a highly efficient visible-light-driven ternary heterostructure semiconductor RGO/Ag2O/Ag2WO4 (RGAAW) Ag-based photocatalyst was prepared and its photocatalytic activity was evaluated by photodegradation of methylene orange (MO). The morphology, structure and optical absorption properties of the as-prepared RGAAW were characterized by SEM, XRD, XPS, FT-IR and UV?vis DRS, respectively. The obtained result was found that the as-prepared RGAAW exhibited the excellent photocatalytic activity, which was almost 11.5 and 7 times as high as those of individual Ag2O and Ag2WO4, respectively. The enhancement of photocatalytic performance could be attributed to the reduced graphene oxide sheets can function as an electron collector and transporter to lengthen the lifetime of the charge carriers. Moreover, the as-prepared RGAAW showed excellent stability toward the photodegradation of methyl orange (MO). The possible mechanism of photocatalytic activity enhancement was proposed.
