研究目的
To develop an efficient photocatalyst for the degradation of phenol under visible light by synergistically combining surface oxygen vacancies and interfacial charge transfer in Fe(III)/Bi2MoO6 nanocomposites.
研究成果
The F/BMO-SOVs composite exhibits significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity for phenol degradation under visible light due to the synergistic effect of surface oxygen vacancies and interfacial charge transfer, which narrows the band gap, improves light absorption, and promotes charge separation. This approach offers a promising strategy for developing efficient photocatalysts for environmental remediation.
研究不足
The study is limited to laboratory-scale experiments with phenol as the model pollutant; scalability and application to real wastewater with complex matrices are not addressed. The optimal Fe(III) loading is 15%, beyond which activity decreases due to recombination sites and light-shielding effects. The mechanism relies on specific conditions like visible light irradiation and may not be effective under other light sources.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved fabricating Fe(III)/Bi2MoO6 with surface oxygen vacancies (F/BMO-SOVs) via a calcination process combined with impregnation to enhance photocatalytic activity. Theoretical models included density functional theory (DFT) for band structure analysis.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Samples included pure Bi2MoO6 (BMO), BMO with surface oxygen vacancies (BMO-SOVs), Fe(III)/BMO (F/BMO), and F/BMO-SOVs with varying Fe(III) molar ratios (5% to 25%). Phenol was used as the model pollutant.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included XRD (Shimadzu XRD-7000), XPS (PHI-5400), FE-SEM (JSM-6700F), HRTEM (JEM-2100), EPR (JEOL ES-ED3X and Bruker ESR JES-FA200), Raman spectrometer (Horiba Jobin-Yvon LabRam HR800), UV-Vis spectrophotometer (Shimadzu UV-2550), PL and TR-PL spectrophotometer (Horiba FLTCSPC), electrochemical analyzer (CHI660D), TOC analyzer (VARIO, Elementar), and a 400W halogen lamp with a 420 nm cut-off filter. Materials included Bi(NO3)3·5H2O, Na2MoO4·2H2O, ethylene glycol, ethanol, Fe(NO3)3, and phenol.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
BMO was synthesized solvothermally, calcined to introduce SOVs, then impregnated with Fe(III) clusters. Photocatalytic activity was assessed by degrading phenol under visible light, with samples taken at intervals for analysis using UV-Vis and TOC measurements. Characterization involved XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, EPR, Raman, UV-Vis DRS, PL, TR-PL, photocurrent, and EIS.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data were analyzed using pseudo-first-order kinetics for degradation rates, Kubelka-Munk equation for band gap calculation, and DFT for electronic structure simulations.
