Unraveling the synergism mechanistic insight of O-vacancy and interfacial charge transfer in WO 3-x decorated on Ag 2CO 3/BiOBr for photocatalysis of water pollutants: Based on experimental and density functional theory (DFT) studies. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 260:119610. [PMID: 39004393 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Revised: 06/28/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
Photocatalysis has been widely used as one of the most promising approaches to remove various pollutants in liquid or gas phases during the last decade. The main emphasis of the study is on the synergy of vacancy engineering and heterojunction formation, two widely used modifying approaches, to significantly alter photocatalytic performance. The vacancy-induced Ag2CO3/BiOBr/WO3-x heterojunction system has been fabricated using a co-precipitation technique to efficiently abate methylene blue (MB) dye and doxycycline (DC) antibiotic. The as-fabricated Ag2CO3/BiOBr/WO3-x heterojunction system displayed improved optoelectronic characteristic features because of the rational combination of dual charge transferal route and defect modulation. The Ag2CO3/BiOBr/WO3-x system possessed 97% and 74% photodegradation efficacy for MB and DC, respectively, with better charge isolation and migration efficacy. The ternary photocatalyst possessed a multi-fold increase in the reaction rate for both MB and DC, i.e., 0.021 and 0.0078 min-1, respectively, compared to pristine counterparts. Additionally, more insightful deductions about the photodegradation routes were made possible by the structural investigations of MB and DC using density functional theory (DFT) simulations. This study advances the understanding of the mechanisms forming visible light active dual Z-scheme heterojunction for effective environmental remediation.

Construction of functionalized In-based metal organic framework/BiOCl 1-xI x Z-scheme heterojunction for efficient photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline: Performance and mechanism. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 359:142274. [PMID: 38719123 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.142274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 04/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
The environmental implications of antibiotics have drawn widespread attention. Numerous monomer-based bismuth oxide halide catalysts have been extensively studied to remove tetracycline (TC) from aquatic environments. Integrating bismuth oxide halide composites with In-based metal organic framework (NH2-MIL-68(In)) might potentially serve as a novel strategy. By meticulously adjusting Cl and I within the composite bismuth halide oxide (B-x), a suite of purpose built heterojunctions (NMB-x) were synthesized, which were engineered to facilitate the efficient photodegradation of TC in simulated and actual aquatic environments. The incorporation of Z-scheme heterojunctions yielded a significant enhancement in photocatalytic responsiveness and charge carrier separation. Notably, NMB-0.3 demonstrated remarkable TC removal efficiency of 88.52 ± 3.05%, which is 3.74 times of B-0.3 within 90 min. The apparent quantum yield was also increased from 8.97% (B-0.3) to 19.68% (NMB-0.3). The removal of TC from natural water bodies was also assessed. Moreover, the photocatalyst concentration, assessed using response surface method, was found to show influential factors on TC removal. In addition, density functional theory (DFT) simulations were employed to identify vulnerable sites within TC. Intermediates and pathways in the photodegradation of TC have also been inferred. Furthermore, a comprehensive environmental toxicity assessment of representative intermediates demonstrated that these intermediates exhibited significantly reduced environmental toxicity compared to TC. This study provides a new approach to the design strategy of efficient and environmentally friendly MOF-based photocatalysts.

Abstract
Self-powered electrochemical sensors based on photofuel cells have attracted considerable research interest because their unique advantage of not requiring an external electric source, but their application in portable and multiplexed targets assay is limited by the inherent mechanism. In this work, a portable self-powered sensor constructed with multichannel photofuel cells was developed for the ratiometric detection of mycotoxins, namely ochratoxin A (OTA) and patulin (PAT). The spatially resolved CdS/Bi2S3-modified photoanodes and a shared Prussian Blue cathode were integrated on an etched indium-tin oxide slide to fabricate the multichannel photofuel cell. The aptamers of OTA and PAT were covalently bonded to individual photoanode regions to build sensitive interfaces, and the specific recognition of analytes impaired the output performance of constructed PFC. Accordingly, ratiometric sensing of OTA and PAT was achieved by utilizing the output performance of a control PFC as a reference signal. This approach effectively eliminates the impact of light intensity on the accuracy of the detection. Under the optimal conditions, the proposed sensing chip exhibited linear ranges of 2.0-1000 nM and 5.0-500 nM for OTA and PAT, respectively. The detection limits (3 S/N) were determined to be 0.25 nM for OTA and 0.27 nM for PAT. The developed ratiometric sensing method demonstrated good selectivity and stability in the simultaneous detection of OTA and PAT. It was successfully utilized for the analysis of OTA and PAT real samples. This work provides a new perspective for construction of portable and ratiometric self-powered sensing platform.

Abstract
In this work, a novel two-dimensional semiconducting metal covalent organic framework (CuTAPc-TFPP-COF) was synthesized and used as biosensing platform to construct aptasensor for trace detection of tetracycline (TC). The CuTAPc-TFPP-COF integrates the highly conjugated structure, large specific surface area, high porosity, abundant nitrogen functional groups, excellent electrochemical activity, and strong bioaffinity for aptamers, providing abundant active sites to effectively anchor aptamer strands. As a result, the CuTAPc-TFPP-COF-based aptasensor shows high sensitivity for detecting TC via specific recognition between aptamer and TC to form Apt-TC complex. An ultralow detection limit of 59.6 fM is deduced from the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy within a wide linear range of 0.1-100000 pM for TC. The CuTAPc-TFPP-COF-based aptasensor also exhibits good selectivity, reproducibility, stability, regenerability, and excellent applicability for real river water, milk, and pork samples. Therefore, the CuTAPc-TFPP-COF-based aptasensor will be promising for detecting trace harmful antibiotics residues in environmental water and food samples.

Abstract
As a result of the insufficient absorption of visible light, the application of Bi4Ti3O12 in the field of photocatalysis is limited. Ag/AgI was uniformly modified on the surface of the nanoflower bulb of Bi4Ti3O12 by simple precipitation method and photodeposition. The fabricated Ag/AgI/Bi4Ti3O12 obtained an ultra-high tetracycline (TC) removal rate under visible light irradiation. And the synergetic effects caused by the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of Ag, the photosensitivity of AgI and the p-n heterojunction are the key to improving the photocatalytic performance of materials. Besides, four plausible photodegradation pathways of TC were proposed and its intermediates were evaluated for toxicity, showing a significant decrease in toxicity after photoreaction.

Abstract
As a kind of plasticizer, butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) presents a serious hazard to the ecosystem. Therefore, there is a strong need for an effective technique to eliminate the risk of BBP. In this work, a new photocatalyst of Bi/Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3 with an S-scheme heterojunction was synthesized using Bi(NO3)3 as the Bi source, Na2S as the S source, and DMF as the carbon source and reductant. Numerous techniques have been used to characterize Bi/Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3, such as scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The improved photoactivity of Bi/Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3 was evaluated by photoelectrochemical response, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, photoluminescence, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and electrochemical Mott Schottky spectroscopy. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of this composite for BBP degradation under simulated sunlight irradiation could be attributed to the surface plasmon resonance effect of Bi metal and the heterojunction structure of Bi2O2CO3 and Bi2S3. The degradation rate of Bi/Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3 was 85%, which was 4.52 and 1.52 times that of Bi2O2CO3 and Bi2S3, respectively. The prepared photocatalyst possessed good stability and reproducibility in eliminating BBP. The improved photocatalytic activity of Bi/Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3 was demonstrated with the formation of an S-scheme heterojunction, and the degradation mechanism was discussed with a liquid chromatograph mass spectrometer.

Abstract
Bismuth oxysulfide (Bi2O2S) is a layered material with high carrier mobility, excellent light absorption characteristic and good stability. However, there are few reports about the use of Bi2O2S in photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. In this paper, Bi2O2S nanosheets (NSs) films were prepared on FTO substrates by one-step hydrothermal method, which broke the traditional powder state of Bi2O2S prepared. Based on the high lattice matching between antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) and bismuth sulfide (Bi2S3) obtained from the topological transformation of partial Bi2O2S, Sb2S3 nanorods (NRs) with [hk1] predominant orientation were epitaxially grown on the surface of Bi2O2S to establish a transport channel for rapid carrier migration. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) electron transport layer with oxygen vacancies was introduced into the back to capture and release electrons, further reducing the recombination rate. The photocurrent density of TiO2/Bi2O2S/Sb2S3-annealed photoelectrode at 1.23 V vs. RHE was 4.37 mA/cm2, which was 13.7 times that of monomer Bi2O2S. In addition, the TiO2/Bi2O2S/Sb2S3-annealed photoelectrode had lower charge transfer resistance and the IPCE value up to 48.22%. This study is of great significance for the application of Bi2O2S based photoelectrodes in the field of PEC water splitting.

Abstract
Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3 heterojunction was prepared by one-step hydrothermal method, where Bi(NO3)3 was employed as Bi source, Na2S was used as a sulfur source, and CO(NH2)2 was adopted as C source. The load of Bi2S3 was adjusted by changing the content of Na2S. The prepared Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3 illustrated strong photocatalytic activity towards dibutyl phthalate (DBP) degradation. The degradation rate was 73.6% under the irradiation of visible light for 3 h, which were 3.5 and 1.87 times for Bi2O2CO3 and Bi2S3, respectively. In addition, the mechanism for the enhanced photoactivity was investigated. After combined with Bi2S3, the formed heterojunction structure inhibited the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pair, improved the visible light adsorption, and accelerated the migration rate of the photogenerated electron. As a result, analysis of the radical formation and the energy band structure revealed that Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3 was consistent with the S-scheme heterojunction model. The S-scheme heterojunction allowed the Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3 to possess high photocatalytic activity. The prepared photocatalyst presented acceptable cycle application stability. This work not only develops a facile one-step synthesis technique for Bi2O2CO3/Bi2S3, and also provides a good platform for the degradation of DBP.

Abstract
Bismuth(Bi)-based materials have gained considerable attention in recent decades for use in a diverse range of sustainable energy and environmental applications due to their low toxicity and eco-friendliness. Bi materials are widely employed in electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices, exhibiting excellent catalytic and non-catalytic performance, as well as CO2 /N2 reduction and water treatment systems. A variety of Bi materials, including its oxides, chalcogenides, oxyhalides, bismuthates, and other composites, have been developed for understanding their physicochemical properties. In this review, a comprehensive overview of the properties of individual Bi material systems and their use in a range of applications is provided. This review highlights the implementation of novel strategies to modify Bi materials based on morphological and facet control, doping/defect inclusion, and composite/heterojunction formation. The factors affecting the development of different classes of Bi materials and how their control differs between individual Bi compounds are also described. In particular, the development process for these material systems, their mass production, and related challenges are considered. Thus, the key components in Bi compounds are compared in terms of their properties, design, and applications. Finally, the future potential and challenges associated with Bi complexes are presented as a pathway for new innovations.

Novel La 3+/Sm 3+ co-doped Bi 5O 7I with efficient visible-light photocatalytic activity for advanced treatment of wastewater: Internal mechanism, TC degradation pathway, and toxicity analysis. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 313:137540. [PMID: 36521751 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.137540] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Revised: 11/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/10/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Controlling semiconductor photocatalysts by doping rare-earth ions is an effective strategy to improve photocatalytic performance. Simple solvothermal and calcination methods were used to prepare La3+ and Sm3+ modified Bi5O7I nanomaterials. Some characterizations such as XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, UV-vis, etc. were carried out to explore its structural composition and photoelectrochemical properties. The photocatalytic activity was investigated by simulating the degradation of TC and RhB under visible-light irradiation. The degradation results showed that the photocatalytic efficiency of 4S4L-Bi5O7I was the best among the samples with the 100% degradation rate of TC (Tetracycline hydrochloride) and 93% of RhB (Rhodamine B). The capture experiment and ESR test proved that the active substances that play a role in the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants were ·O2-, 1O2 and h+, and on this basis, the possible degradation mechanism was proposed. The final results showed that La/Sm co-doping expanded the light absorption range of Bi5O7I and improved the charge separation efficiency and the specific surface area. Besides, the surface defects were formed on the surface of Bi5O7I due to ion-doping, which could catch e- to promote the separation and transfer of carriers and improve the photocatalytic activity. LC-MS was used to analyze the possible degradation pathways of TC. And the toxicity of TC was also analyzed via T.E.S.T and Toxtree. The results showed comprehensive toxicity of TC was decreased by 4S4L-Bi5O7I so that the overall water pollution was reduced. This work can provide a reference for the subsequent development of bismuth-based photocatalysts.

Abstract
A hot research topic in visible-light-driven photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) oxidation technology is the development of superior photoanode materials. The design of the photoanode system with a direct Z-scheme charge transfer mechanism is crucial to achieving effective charge separation for sustainable photoelectrocatalysis. Here, a novel Bi/Bi2S3/α-MoO3 heterostructure was successfully assembled by a simple and feasible strategy. The direct Z-scheme heterogeneous formed between Bi2S3 and α-MoO3 has the advantages of low resistance, high optical response current and the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of Bi nanoparticles (Bi NPs). Thus, the efficiency of photogenerated carrier separation and transfer is further enhanced, and the catalytic activity is significantly improved. It is impressive that the unique photoanode has achieved a maximum removal efficiency of 85.8% of tetracycline (TC) pollutants under visible light irradiation within 60 min and has excellent stability, which is expected to degrade antibiotics efficiently and environmentally in harsh environments. These characteristics give Bi/Bi2S3/α-MoO3 promising candidates for practical applications in antibiotic degradation.

Abstract
To improve the efficiency of photocatalytic oxidative degradation of antibiotic pollutants, it is essential to develop an efficient and stable photocatalyst. In this study, a polymer-assisted facile synthesis strategy is proposed for the polymorph-controlled α-Bi2O3/Bi2O2CO3 heterojunction retained at elevated calcination temperatures. The p-n heterojunction can effectively separate and migrate electron-hole pairs, which improves visible-light-driven photocatalytic degradation from tetracycline (TC). The BO-400@PAN-140 photocatalyst achieves the highest pollutant removal efficiency of 98.21% for photocatalytic tetracycline degradation in 1 h (λ > 420 nm), and the degradation efficiency was maintained above 95% after 5 cycles. The morphology, crystal structure, and chemical state of the composites were analysed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflection, transient photocurrent response, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were adopted to identify the charge transfer and separation efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. The EPR results verified h+ and ˙OH radicals as the primary active species in the photocatalytic oxidation reactions. This observation was also consistent with the results of radical trapping experiments. In addition, the key intermediate products of the photocatalytic degradation of TC over BO-400@PAN-140 were identified via high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, which is compatible with two possible photocatalytic reaction pathways. This work provides instructive guidelines for designing heterojunction photocatalysts via a polymer-assisted semiconductor crystallographic transition pathway for TC degradation into cleaner production.

Abstract
Emerging S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts endowed with efficient charge separation and strong redox capacity have stimulated wide interests in dealing with environmental issues nowadays. In this work, we firstly fabricated the oxygen vacancy modified ZrTiO4-x nanocrystals, which was further combined with AgI to build the defective S-scheme AgI/ZrTiO4-x heterojunctions for visible-light photocatalytic norfloxacin degradation. The synthesized ZrTiO4-x nanocrystals and AgI/ZrTiO4-x heterojunctions displayed remarkably boosted norfloxacin degradation performance under visible-light irradiation. The reaction rate constant of the optimized AgI/ZrTiO4-x-5% heterojunction is as high as 0.01419 min-1, which is approximately 43.35 times that of AgI and 7.93 times that of ZrTiO4-x nanocrystals, and far superior to those of commercial TiO2 and commercial ZrO2. The high-performance photocatalytic norfloxacin degradation could be mainly attributed to the formation of S-scheme charge transfer pathways and oxygen vacancy defects. More significantly, AgI/ZrTiO4-x could also realize the effective photo-decomposition of other emerging pollutants. Finally, the visible-light photocatalytic performance and photocatalysis mechanism were investigated.

Abstract
Defect construction and rare earth doping are the linchpins to completing the target of partial electronic regulation. In Er3+/Sm3+ co-doping Bi2O2CO3, rare earth doping resulted in the exposure of {001} crystal plane in Bi2O2CO3 and cause surface defects and electron traps, achieving wide light response capability and fast carrier separation. Furthermore, a potential TC degradation route was acknowledged derived from LC-MS. Then, the median lethal concentration LC50 (96 h) is 80 ppm, probing the 2E2SBOC photocatalyst has low toxicity in actual wastewater. Combining with immobilization technology, not only does it have little impact on the organisms in the wastewater, but it is easy to recycle after degradation. In terms of new water disinfection technology, bacterial experiments in natural waters proved that 2E2SBOC has a potential disinfection system, which promotes the exposure of more active sites during degradation. This effective project offers a novel perspective for the development and application of rare-earth-doped photocatalysts.

Abstract
It is a useful strategy to use a solid electronic mediator with good conductivity to assist the separation of semiconductor photo-induced electron-hole pairs and the redox of semiconductor materials. In order to construct a photocatalyst for more efficient photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics, a simple hydrothermal and precipitation method was used to construct the Ag-AgBr/Bi2O2CO3/CNT Z-scheme heterojunction by using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as electronic mediators. Compared with the pristine AgBr, Bi2O2CO3, Bi2O2CO3/CNT, the 30%Ag-AgBr/Bi2O2CO3/CNT photocatalyst has better photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation, showing the best degradation ability to tetracycline (TC). Meanwhile, the photocatalytic properties of 30%Ag-AgBr/Bi2O2CO3/CNT in different pH and inorganic ions were studied. Finally, the degradation pathway and catalytic mechanism of 30%Ag-AgBr/Bi2O2CO3/CNT photocatalytic degradation of TC were also argued. The construction of the Z-scheme electron transport pathway, in which CNTs were used as electronic mediators, and the SPR effect of Ag and Bi metal, which enable the effective separation and transfer of photo-generated electron-hole pairs, are responsible for the significant improvement in photocatalytic performance. It opens up new possibilities for designing and developing high-efficiency photocatalysts with CNTs as the electronic mediator.

Abstract
The Fenton reaction is a powerful method for removing refractory pollutants from water, yet it is restricted by shortcomings such as pH adjustments and generation of iron-containing sludge. In this study, a highly dispersed pyrite nanoplate supported on chitosan hydrochar was prepared through a simple one-pot hydrothermal method. The interactions between chitosan and Fe3+ suppressed the accumulation of FeS2 in the crystal growth period and led to the formation of pyrite nanoplates with many exposed (210) facets. Thus, it showed excellent Fenton-like activity and the removal efficiency of AR 73 reached 99.9% within 60 min. The catalyst could be used in a wide pH range of 3~10. Hydroxyl radicals are the main reactive oxygen species in this catalytic system. The self-reduction of generated Fe(III) species by sulfur via inner electron transfer promoted the Fe(II)/Fe(III) redox cycle, and the presence of graphene facilitated the adsorption of pollutants. This catalyst also showed good reuse performances as well as stability, which has promising prospects for practical use in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The present study describes the enhanced photodegradation of organic pollutant dyes, congo red (CR) and rhodamine B (RhB) dyes under visible light irradiation. AgIO4 nanorods decorated on Bi2S3 nanoflakes in various proportions were synthesized via sono-chemical route wherein the deposition of varying amounts of AgIO4 on Bi2S3 plays a pivotal role in improving the photodegradation ability. The characterization of the as-synthesized nanohybrids was assessed by XRD, UV-vis DRS, PL, EIS, ESR, FT-IR, XPS, HR-TEM, FE-SEM, N2 adsorption and desorption techniques. The effect of initial CR and RhB dye concentration, reaction pH and usage of nanohybrid concentration were investigated where 30%-AgIO4/Bi2S3 exhibited excellent visible light photodegradation of 95.58% for CR and 96.11% for RhB dyes at 140 min and 100 min respectively. The superoxide (•O2-) and hydroxyl radicals (•OH) played predominant role in the photodegradation of CR and RhB which is experimentally confirmed by radical trapping experiments. Also, the photocatalysts exhibited good photo stability and excellent reusability. The TOC analysis confirmed the complete mineralization of CR and RhB dyes by the nanohybrid and the formation of possible intermediate and degradation pathway was delineated based on GC/MS analysis. The outstanding photodegradation performance were ascribed to the Z-scheme charge transfer path, which effectively promotes the separation and transfer of e-/h+ pairs, resulting in a strong redox activity of the accumulated charge to decompose organic dyes during the degradation reaction. The study suggested that the nanohybrid can be utilized for the removal of organic pollutants from the contaminated water bodies.

Abstract
The heterojunction photocatalyst, BiOIO3/[Bi6O6(OH)3](NO3)3·1.5H2O (BiOIO3/BBN), was successfully synthesized by a simple one-step hydrothermal method. The results showed that under UV light irradiation, the formation of a heterojunction could greatly enhance the photocatalytic efficiency of the prepared catalyst for bisphenol A (BPA). The BiOIO3/BBN heterostructure had the best reaction rate constant, which was 81.82 times, 1.52 times, and 43.40 times improvement of TiO2, BiOIO3, and BBN respectively. Through the free radical capture experiments and electron spin resonance spectroscopy, it was conducted that 1O2, h+, e-, •OH and •O2- were reactive species in the process of photocatalytic degradation of BPA. The photocatalytic mechanism was further investigated and confirmed that the BiOIO3/BBN heterojunction could improve the separation and transfer of photo-generated carriers, thereby greatly enhancing the catalytic efficiency. The degradation products of BPA were detected by HPLC-MS, and the degradation reaction pathway was deduced.

Abstract
In this study, we have adopted a one-step hydrothermal route to synthesize an interesting type of Bi2O2CO3 hierarchical nanotubes self-assembled from ordered nanosheets. The effects of reaction time on the morphological and structural evolution, light absorption properties, photoelectrochemical performance, and photocatalytic performance of the prepared hierarchical nanotubes were investigated. Among the products synthesized at different reaction times, the 3-hour-derived Bi2O2CO3 hierarchical nanotubes were identified to possess the highest photocatalytic performance. To promote the photocatalytic application of the as-synthesized Bi2O2CO3 hierarchical nanotubes, their performance was systematically evaluated via the photodegradation of various organic pollutants (e.g., methyl orange (MO), rhodamine B (RhB), methylene blue (MB), ciprofloxacin (CIP), sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and tetracycline hydrochloride (TC)) and the photoreduction of Cr(VI) under simulated-sunlight irradiation. Furthermore, their photocatalytic performance was also evaluated by purifying simulated industrial wastewater (i.e., a MO/RhB/MB mixed solution) at different pH values and containing different inorganic anions. Based on the experimental data and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the involved photocatalytic mechanism was discussed.

Abstract
A simple hydrothermal approach was demonstrated for synthesizing a coupled NiFe2O4-ZnWO4 nanocomposite, wherein one-dimensional ZnWO4 nanorods were inserted into two-dimensional NiFe2O4 nanoplates. Herein, we evaluated the photocatalytic removal of Cr(VI), and degradation of tetracycline (TC) and methylene blue (MB) by the nanocomposite, as well as its ability to split water. The ZnWO4 nanorods enriched the synergistic interactions, upgraded the solar light fascination proficiency, and demonstrated outstanding detachment and migration of the photogenerated charges, as confirmed by a transient photocurrent study and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements. Compared to pristine NiFe2O4 and ZnWO4, the NiFe2O4-ZnWO4 nanocomposite exhibited a higher Cr(VI) reduction (93.5%) and removal of TC (97.9%) and MB (99.6%). Radical trapping results suggested that hydroxyl and superoxide species are dominant reactive species, thereby facilitating the Z-scheme mechanism. Furthermore, a probable photocatalytic mechanism was projected based on the experimental results. The photoelectrochemical analysis confirmed that NiFe2O4-ZnWO4 exhibited minor charge-transfer resistance and large photocurrents. We propose a novel and efficient approach for designing a coupled heterostructured nanocomposites with a significant solar light ability for ecological conservation and water splitting.

Abstract
Red phosphorus (RP) has a suitable energy band structure and excellent photocatalytic properties. However, there are some problems, such as low quantum efficiency and serious photogenerated electron-hole recombination. The S-scheme heterostructure shows great potential in facilitating the separation and transfer of photogenerated carriers and obtaining strong photo-redox ability. Herein, hydrothermally treated red phosphorus (HRP) was combined with Bi2O2CO3 to construct Bi2O2CO3/HRP S-scheme heterojunction composite. The Bi2O2CO3 content was optimized, and the 5 %Bi2O2CO3/HRP composite obtained at 5 %Bi2O2CO3 mass fraction exhibited the strongest photoreduction ability. The Cr(VI) photoreduction and photolytic hydrogen production rates were as high as 0.22 min-1 and 157.2 μmol •h-1, which were 7.3 and 3.0 times higher than those of HRP, respectively. The promoted photocatalytic activity could be attributed to the formation of S-scheme heterojunctions, which accelerated the separation and transfer of useful photogenerated electron-hole pairs, while enhancing the recombination of relatively useless photogenerated electron-hole pairs, thereby resulting in the highest photocurrent density (17.3 μA/cm2) of the 5 %Bi2O2CO3/HRP composite, which was 1.6 and 4.3 times higher than pure Bi2O2CO3 (10.5 μA/cm2) and pure HRP (4.0 μA/cm2), respectively. This work would provide an advanced approach to enhance the photocatalytic activity of RP.
