Visible light-driven photoelectrocatalytic degradation of Acid Yellow 17 using Sn3O4 flower-like thin films supported on Ti substrate (Sn3O4/TiO2/Ti)
摘要： This article reports a new method for preparing mixed valence tin oxide (Sn3O4) flower-like nanostructures using a microwave-assisted route. Thin-film Sn3O4/TiO2/Ti electrodes demonstrated highly efficient visible light driven photocatalytic degradation of monoazo acid yellow 17 (AY17) dye, reaching 95% color removal after 60 min at pH 2. Moreover, under low bias potential (0.5 V), the photoelectrocatalytic efficiency increased to 97% color removal and 83% removal of total organic carbon at a kinetic rate almost 3 times higher than in photocatalysis. Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry was used to identify intermediate formation, and oxidation performance was proposed for photocatalytic and photoelectrocatalytic degradation with no organics identified after 120 min of treatment. The results indicate that Sn3O4/TiO2/Ti photoelectrodes offer a simple, green method for wastewater treatment employing visible light source.

Impact of doped metals on urea-derived g-C3N4 for photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics: Structure, photoactivity and degradation mechanisms
摘要： Metal doping is an appealing modification strategy of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) to improve its photocatalytic activity. The interactions of g-C3N4 precursors with metals, however, has often been underappreciated, which can induce great impacts on g-C3N4 formation and properties. Herein, the impacts of metals (Na, K, Ca, Mg) on the morphology, structure, and photoactivity of urea-derived g-C3N4 were investigated. Our TEM and XPS results confirmed that the interactions of doped metals with urea precursors lead to the incorporation of O atoms from urea molecules into the framework of g-C3N4. Due to the synergistic effects of the metals and structural O atoms, doped g-C3N4 performed an elevated photodegradation of antibiotics under the visible light irradiation, which was attributed to the enhanced light-harvesting and reduced charge recombination. In addition, the doped metals presented uneven regulation on the band structures and morphology of g-C3N4. As a result, both superoxide and hydroxyl radicals were generated by g-CN-Na and g-CN-K, whereas, only superoxide radicals were involved in g-CN, g-CN-Ca and g-CN-Mg. Consequently, diversified photodegradation mechanisms for enrofloxacin (ENR) were observed that the g-CN, g-CN-Ca and g-CN-Mg reaction systems mainly attacked the piperazine moiety of ENR while g-CN-Na and g-CN-K provided additional photodegradation pathway by attacking quinolone core of ENR. The present work could provide new insights into further understanding of doping chemistry with g-C3N4.

Covalent organic framework as an efficient, metal-free, heterogeneous photocatalyst for organic transformations under visible light
摘要： Visible-light active, heterogeneous, and organic photocatalysts exhibit a more sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to classical metal-based catalysts. Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D-COFs) with permanent porosity, columnar π-arrays and excellent stability, that can become an excellent platform for heterogeneous photocatalysis of organic transformations. Here we report a predesigned imine-based COF with electron donor and acceptor structure. And new framework possesses large surface area, high crystallinity, outstanding stability and broad absorption range in the visible-light region as well as good photoelectric response characteristics. Importantly, it was found to be a highly effective heterogeneous photocatalyst for reductive dehalogenation of phenacyl bromide derivatives and α-alkylation of aldehydes under irradiation of visible-light. In addition, the COF gave good recyclability and could be reused after a simple separation manipulation. The current present still reveals a great prospect for 2D-COFs as metal-free, heterogeneous photocatalysts for organic transformations.

Photocatalytic oxidation of gaseous benzene, toluene and xylene under UV and visible irradiation over Mn-doped TiO2 nanoparticles
摘要： The photocatalytic oxidation of gaseous benzene, toluene and xylene (BTX) over un-doped, 0.1 and 1 wt% Mn-TiO2 nanoparticles under ultraviolet and visible irradiation was studied in atmosphere of synthetic air or inert gas. The photocatalytic decomposition efficiency and the oxidation products were determined using a Static Photochemical Reactor coupled with FTIR spectroscopy. BTX underwent efficient decomposition over Mn-TiO2 photocatalysts under UV irradiation, more with oxygen presence and less without oxygen. More important toluene and xylene went substantial decomposition over 0.1 mol% Mn-TiO2 under visible irradiation with oxygen presence. The main final oxidation products in the UV photocatalysis of BTX were CO2, CO and H2O, with CO2 and CO yields 4 and 2 respectively. The conversion percentage of benzene, toluene, and xylene to CO2 were 63.6%, 56.4%, 51.8%, and to CO 29%, 26.5%, 23.2%, respectively. In the visible photocatalysis of toluene and xylene the yields of CO were insignificant. Formation of carbon containing deposits on TiO2 surfaces was observed after extensive UV photocatalysis of toluene and xylene, and such by-products surface coverage may reduce the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 samples. Some aspects of the photocatalytic mechanism were examined.

A sustainable solution for removal of glutaraldehyde in saline water with visible light photocatalysis
摘要： Glutaraldehyde (GA) is the most common biocide used in unconventional oil and gas production. Photocatalytic degradation of GA in brine simulating oil and gas produced water using Ag/AgCl/BiOCl composite as a photocatalyst with visible light was investigated. Removal of GA at 0.1 mM in 200 g/L NaCl solution at pH 7 was 90% after 75 min irradiation using 5 g/L of the photocatalyst. The GA removal followed pseudo-first order reaction with a rate constant of 0.0303 min?1. At pH 5 or at 300 g/L NaCl, the photocatalytic removal of GA was almost completely inhibited. Similar inhibitions were observed when adding dissolved organic carbon (from humic acid) at 10 and 200 mg/L, or Br? at 120 mg/L to the system. The removal rate of GA markedly increased with increasing pH (5-9), photocatalyst loading (2-8 g/L) and under 350 nm UV (compared to visible light). On the contrary, the removal rate of GA markedly decreased with increasing NaCl and initial GA concentrations (0-300 g/L for NaCl and 0.1-0.4 mM for GA). A quenching experiment was also conducted; electron holes (h+) and superoxide (O2?-) were found as the main reactive species responsible for the removal of GA while ?OH had a very limited effect.

Visible Light Driven Hydrogen Evolution by Molecular Nickel Catalysts with Time-Resolved Spectroscopic and DFT Insights
摘要： Hydrogen (H2) is a clean fuel that can potentially be a future solution for the storage of intermittent renewable energy. However, current H2 production is mainly dominated by the energy intensive steam reforming reaction, which consumes a fossil fuel, methane, and emits copious amounts of carbon dioxide as one of the byproducts. To address this challenge, we report a molecular catalyst that produces H2 from aqueous solutions, is composed of affordable, earth-abundant elements such as nickel, and has been incorporated into a system driven by visible light. Under optimized conditions, we observe a turnover number of 3880, among the best for photocatalytic H2 evolution with nickel complexes from water?methanol solutions. Through nanosecond transient absorption, electron paramagnetic resonance, and UV?vis spectroscopic measurements, and supported by density functional theory calculations, we report a detailed study of this photocatalytic H2 evolution cycle. We demonstrate that a one-electron reduced, predominantly ligand-centered, reactive Ni intermediate can be accessed under visible light irradiation using triethylamine as the sacrificial electron donor and reductive quencher of the initial photosensitizer excited state. In addition, the computational calculations suggest that the second coordination sphere ether arms can enhance the catalytic activity by promoting proton relay, similar to the mechanism among [FeFe] hydrogenases in nature. Our study can form the basis for future development of H2 evolution molecular catalysts that incorporate both ligand redox noninnocence and alternative second coordination sphere effects in artificial photosynthetic systems driven by visible light.

Synthesis of silver phosphate/sillenite bismuth ferrite/graphene oxide nanocomposite and its enhanced visible light photocatalytic mechanism
摘要： In the present work, silver phosphate/sillenite bismuth ferrite/graphene oxide (Ag3PO4/Bi25FeO40/GO) nanocomposite has been successfully fabricated via hydrothermal strategy and ultrasound precipitation treatment. Afterwards, physicochemical properties of as-obtained composite were studied through X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV–vis DRS), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface areas, vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM) measurements. Meanwhile, Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), Mott-Schottky (M-S), Transient photocurrent-curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements were measured to investigate the photoelectrochemical properties. Besides, the degradation efficiency of Rhodamine B was as the evaluation of PC efficiency, which could reach 96.9% after 75min illumination. The results indicated that spherical Ag3PO4 and Bi25FeO40 crystallographic particles were integrated with GO and the enhanced PC performance can be attributed to significantly visible light absorbance and charge separation efficiency. Furthermore, to distinguish the contribution of reactive species including ?O2?, ?OH, H2O2, h+ and e?, several scavenger experiments have been conducted. Noticeable, the Ag3PO4/Bi25FeO40/GO nanocomposite has magnetic because of the integration with Bi25FeO40. Eventually, the possible photocatalytic performance mechanism of Ag3PO4/Bi25FeO40/GO was proposed.

In situ synthesis of a cadmium sulfide/reduced graphene oxide/bismuth Z-scheme oxyiodide system for enhanced photocatalytic performance in chlorinated paraben degradation
摘要： An efficient reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-based cadmium sulfide/reduced graphene oxide/bismuth oxyiodide (CdS/rGO/BiOI) Z-scheme system was fabricated by an in-situ growth method. Solid interactions between the rGO and nanoparticles promoted the transmission of photoinduced carriers, which separated and accumulated electrons from CdS and holes from BiOI. Moreover, the Z-scheme system enabled CdS electrons to maintain a high reduction capability and BiOI holes to maintain a high oxidation capability. Therefore, the CdS/rGO/BiOI composite exhibited better photocatalytic activity in the degradation of methyl 3,5-dichloro-4-hydroxybenzoate (MDHB) than that of pure CdS and BiOI under visible light irradiation. In particularly, the identification of active species and transformation products revealed that the accumulated photoinduced electrons promoted the reductive dechlorination of MDHB. The dechlorinated byproducts were then oxidatively split and degraded into harmless small-molecule carboxylic acids or inorganic substances by photoinduced holes. This work provided a favorable in situ growth method to design and synthesize Z-scheme photocatalysts for simultaneous chlorinated paraben dechlorination and degradation under visible light irradiation.

Reduced Graphene Oxide/TiO2 Nanocomposite: From Synthesis to Characterization for Efficient Visible Light Photocatalytic Applications
摘要： In this study, a green and facile thermal reduction of graphene oxide using an eco-friendly system of D-(+)-glucose and NH4OH for the preparation of reduced graphene oxide was described. The obtained reduced graphene oxide dispersion was characterized by SEM, Dynamic Light Scattering, Raman and X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy. TiO2 nanoparticles and reduced graphene oxide nanocomposites were successively prepared and used in the preparation of heterogeneous photocatalysts that were characterized by Atomic Force Microscopy and Photoluminescence Spectroscopy and subsequently tested as visible light photocatalysts for the photodegradation of Alizarin Red S in water as target pollutant. Obtained results of photocatalytic tests regarding the visible light photocatalytic degradation of Alizarin Red S demonstrated that the use of reduced graphene oxide in combination with TiO2 led to a significant improvement for both adsorption of Alizarin Red S on the catalyst surface and photodegradation efficiencies when compared to those obtained with not doped TiO2.

Carbonaceous Biomass-Titania composites with Ti–O–C Bonding Bridge for Efficient Photocatalytic Reduction of Cr(VI) Under Narrow Visible Light
摘要： The aim of this study was to develop carbonaceous materials hybridized with anatase TiO2 composed of Activated Carbon-TiO2 (AC-TiO2), Olive Pits-TiO2 (OP-TiO2) and Wood Shaving-TiO2 (WS-TiO2) by ultrasonic-assisted sol-gel process for the photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction under UV and narrow visible light. The morphology, crystal structure, surface chemistry and optical properties of the as-prepared and bare-TiO2 were investigated by SEM-EDS, XRD, FTIR, BET, UV-DRS, XPS and photo-current measurements. Unlike bare-TiO2, these composite photocatalysts exhibited an enhanced absorption in visible-light. The band gap energies were found to be 3.20 eV, 2.89 eV, 2.81 eV and 2.95 eV for bare-TiO2, AC-TiO2, OP-TiO2 and WS-TiO2, respectively. On the other hand, as-prepared photocatalysts showed significantly improved photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction performances under UV and visible light illumination compared to bare-TiO2. A total reduction of 10 ppm of Cr(VI) was obtained after 30 min, 50 min and 130 min under visible light (>420) for AC-TiO2, OP-TiO2 and WS-TiO2, respectively at pH: 3 and in the presence of 10 ppm tartaric acid as hole scavenger, while no reduction was detected for bare-TiO2 under visible light (>420). The efficient photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) under visible light by AC-TiO2, OP-TiO2 and WS-TiO2 was mainly due to (i): the narrow band gap of TiO2 nanoparticle deposited in carbonaceous materials, (ii): self-photo-sensitizer role of carbonaceous materials via Ti–O–C bonds and (iii): the electron transfer from TiO2 to carbonaceous materials.
