Abstract
Converting CO2 into chemicals and fuels by solar energy can alleviate global warming and solve the energy crisis. In this work, CoAl-LDO/MoO3-x (LDO/MO) composites were successfully prepared and achieved efficient CO2 reduction under visible light. The CoAl-layered double oxides (CoAl-LDO) evolved from CoAl-layered double hydroxide (CoAl-LDH) exhibited a more robust structure, broader light absorption, and improved CO2 adsorption ability. The local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect excited by nonstoichiometric MoO3-x broadened the photo-response range of CoAl-LDO/MoO3-x. In addition, constructing step-scheme (S-scheme) heterojunctions could simultaneously optimize the migration mechanism of photogenerated electrons and holes, and retain carriers with strong redox ability. Therefore, the production rates of CO and CH4 on the optimal LDO/MO composite were 7 and 9 times higher than the pristine CoAl-LDH, respectively. This work hybridizes oxidation photocatalysts and LDO-based materials to optimize the charge separation and migration mechanisms, which guides the modification of LDO-based materials.

Abstract
To develop Bi2S3-based heterojunction for efficient solar light induced photoreduction of Cr(VI), flower-like Bi2S3-In2S3 composites consisted of nanorods were prepared via a microwave-assisted hydrothermal route. In contrast with pure Bi2S3, Bi2S3-In2S3 composites exhibited the enhanced photoreduction activity while the decreased adsorption capacity for Cr(VI) removal. The best removal efficiency of 70 mg L-1 Cr(VI) solution (99.86%) was achieved by the optimal 3-Bi2S3-In2S3 with a Bi/In molar ratio of 4:1 within 140 min. It's ascribed to the narrow band gap for strengthened visible-light response, the tight interface between Bi2S3 and In2S3 for rapid transfer and separation of charge carriers, and the enough S vacancies for highly-efficient active sites of adsorption-photoreduction. However, the long-term photo-corrosion resulted in the slightly inferior reusability of 3-Bi2S3-In2S3 under solar light irradiation after five cycles.

Abstract
Advanced reduction process (ARP) has drawn an increasing interest as a new manner for removing oxidative pollutants in water. In this paper, we demonstrate the possibility of in-situ reduction of Cr(VI) by CO2·- produced from formate originally existing in leather wastewater by visible-light-driven ARP containing black TiO2 photocatalyst. The prepared black TiO2 with nanotube structure achieves remarkable enhanced the reduction rate of Cr(VI) as high as 96.2% (k = 0.0114 min-1) in the presence of formate, which is approximately 4.75 times than that of 56.3% (k = 0.0024 min-1) in the absence under 120 min visible-light irradiate at unadjusted pH. The results exhibit a distinct contrast with commercial TiO2 (P25). A series of control experiments are also performed, indicating that formate is able to convert the oxidative environment into a highly reductive one, and the formate concentration, black TiO2 dosage and pH may greatly impact on the Cr(VI) reduction rate. According to the electron spin resonance (ESR) measurement, CO2·- radicals can be directly verified as dominate radical in this system. Moreover, this system appears to be attractive for creating photochemical systems where in-situ production of CO2·- radicals may be realized by using formate. Then this in-situ ARP system will provide a new perspective for the Cr(VI) removing, which makes leather wastewater treatment much easier and more sustainable in the future.
