DFT and experimental studies of the facet-dependent oxygen vacancies modulated WS 2/BiOCl-OV S-scheme structure for enhanced photocatalytic removal of ciprofloxacin from wastewater. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 250:118519. [PMID: 38382660 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118519] [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: 01/07/2024] [Revised: 02/09/2024] [Accepted: 02/17/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024]
Abstract
The present study explores visible light-assisted photodegradation of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CIP) antibiotic as a promising solution to water pollution. The focus is on transforming the optical and electronic properties of BiOCl through the generation of oxygen vacancies (OVs) and the exposure of (110) facets, forming a robust S-scheme heterojunction with WS2. The resultant OVs mediated composite with an optimal ratio of WS2 and BiOCl-OV (4-WS2/BiOCl-OV) demonstrated remarkable efficiency (94.3%) in the visible light-assisted photodegradation of CIP antibiotic within 1.5 h. The CIP degradation using 4-WS2/BiOCl-OV followed pseudo-first-order kinetics with the rate constant of 0.023 min-1, outperforming bare WS2, BiOCl, and BiOCl-OV by 8, 6, and 4 times, respectively. Density functional theory (DFT) analysis aligned well with experimental results, providing insights into the structural arrangement and bandgap analysis of the photocatalysts. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis utilized for identifying potentially degraded products while scavenging experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spin trapping analysis elucidated the S-scheme charge transfer mechanism. This research contributes to advancing the design of oxygen vacancy-mediated S-scheme systems in the realm of photocatalysis, with potential implications for addressing water pollution concerns.

[PMID: 37954349 PMCID: PMC10637951 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e21270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2023] [Revised: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023] Open
Abstract
In this work, bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) and Sn-doped BiOCl (SBCl) with improved visible light photocatalytic activity were synthesized via the co-precipitation method. The XRD analysis determined the tetragonal phase of BiOCl, 1 %, 5 %, and 10 % SBCl. The crystallite sizes were in the range of 20-34 nm. These results confirmed that the Sn ion was successfully incorporated into the BiOCl lattice. This was further confirmed by FT-IR and Raman analysis. The optical properties, such as the band gap energy, were studied using UV-vis DRS. It was found that doping BiOCl with Sn has a minor effect on the band gap tuning. BET shows that the SBCl samples have acquired a larger specific surface area (14.66-42.20 m2/g) than BiOCl (13.49 m2/g). The photocatalytic performance showed that SBCl samples have higher photocatalytic activity than BiOCl in degrading Rhodamine B (RhB) dye under visible light irradiation. Among the SBCl samples, 5 % SBCl exhibited the highest photocatalytic efficiency which degraded 91.2 % of the RhB dye in 60 min. Moreover, the photoelectrochemical activities of the as-synthesized BiOCl and SBCl were investigated using linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in the dark and under visible light irradiation. Both studies showed that SBCl exhibits enhanced photoelectrochemical activities than BiOCl. Hence, it can be suggested that SBCl possesses visible light active properties and can be potentially used as a photocatalyst and photoelectrode material.

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.

Construction of BiOCl/Ti-MOFs type-II heterojunction photocatalyst for enhanced photocatalytic performance for multiple antibiotics removal. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:42140-42151.

Abstract
The increased threats to environmental and human health caused by the widespread use of antibiotics have increased the need for efficient technologies for removing antibiotic remnants from wastewater after production. Photocatalysis, which is non-toxic, highly efficient, and low energy consumption, has played a vital role in wastewater treatment among the aforementioned technologies. Therefore, a MIL-125(Ti)/BiOCl type-II heterojunction photocatalyst was fabricated using solvothermal method. Investigations remarkably revealed that the enhanced photocatalytic performance of the photocatalyst for multiple antibiotics degradation (tetracycline and ofloxacin) was attributed to the construction of a heterojunction, which inhibits carrier recombination and enhances visible-light absorption. Furthermore, the radical trapping experiments and electron spin resonance determined superoxide radicals and holes to be the main species in the photocatalytic process. Finally, we presented a potential photocatalytic mechanism that could account for the observations. Overall, this study offered guidelines for developing more photocatalysts with visible-light responses and removing multiple antibiotics from water more efficiently.

Abstract
With the rapid development of industry, bismuth-based semiconductors have been widely used for the photocatalytic degradation of organic contaminants discharged into wastewater. Herein, a Bi2O3/BiOCl (BBOC) heterojunction was constructed with high photocatalytic activity toward Rhodamine B (RhB) in the first cycle of the photocatalysis test, while the photocatalytic performance was drastically reduced after repeated testing. The adsorbed RhB molecules occupying the facial active sites of BBOC contributed to the decline of photocatalytic activity. The spent BBOC can be reactivated by the decomposition of the adsorbed RhB and the introduction of oxygen vacancies during calcination under an air atmosphere. The BBOC thus recovered exhibited a superior apparent rate constant of 0.08087 min-1 compared with 0.05228 min-1 of pristine BBOC. This study provided an effective strategy to investigate the deactivation/activation mechanism of bismuth-based heterojunction photocatalysts.

Enhanced visible-light driven photocatalytic degradation of bisphenol A by tuning electronic structure of Bi/BiOBr. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 308:136276.

Abstract
Visible-light (VL) photocatalysis has been regarded as an intriguing technology for the control of persistent environmental pollutants. In this study, the novel homogeneous Co doped-Bi/BiOBr nanocomposites (CB-X) were prepared via a facile one-step hydrothermal method, featured with a uniform 0D Bi nanodots distribution on 2D Co-doped BiOBr nanosheets, and the photocatalytic performance was evaluated by decomposing the BPA as a prototype contaminant. The degradation experiment indicated that the optimal CB-2 nanocomposite exhibited the best photocatalytic activity with a 94% removal efficiency of BPA under the VL irradiation of 30 min; And the corresponding apparent rate constant (k) was as high as 0.107 min-1, which was 10.7 times greater than that of Bi/BiOBr (0.010 min-1). Benefiting from the modulation effect of Co-doping on the intrinsic electron configuration of Bi/BiOBr, the elevated VL adsorption capacity and accelerated h+/e- pairs separation rate were achieved, which were evidenced by photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, photo-electrochemical measurements and density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Moreover, the major reactive species in CB-X/VL system were uncovered to be •O2- and 1O2, whereas •OH and h+ presented a secondary contribution in the BPA elimination. Finally, the possible photocatalytic mechanism involved in CB-X nanocomposites and BPA degradation pathways were proposed on the basis of the various intermediates and products detected by LC-MS/MS.

Abstract
Crystal facet engineering and nonmetal doping are regarded as effective strategies for improving the separation of charge carriers and photocatalytic activity of semiconductor photocatalysts. In this paper, we developed a facial method for fabricating oxygen-deficient Br-doped BiOCl nanosheets with dominating {001} facets through a traditional hydrothermal reaction and explored the impact of the Br doping and specific facets on carrier separation and photocatalytic performance. The morphologies, structures, and optical and photocatalytic properties of the obtained products were characterized systematically. The BiOCl samples prepared by the hydrothermal reaction exhibited square-like shapes with dominating {001} facets. Photodeposition results indicated that photoinduced electrons preferred to transfer to {001} facets because of the strong internal static electric fields in BiOCl nanosheets with dominating {001} facets. Br doping not only contributed to the formation of impurity energy levels that could promote light absorption but introduced a large number of surface oxygen vacancies (VO) in BiOCl photocatalysts, which was beneficial for photocatalytic performance. Moreover, the photocatalytic activities of these products under visible light were tested by degradation of rhodamine B (RhB). Because of the synergistic effect of the dominating {001} facets, Br doping, and rich VO, oxygen-deficient Br-doped BiOCl nanosheets exhibited improved carrier separation, visible light absorption, and photocatalytic efficiency.

Abstract
Bacterial infection can lead to chronic non-healing wounds and serious tissue damage. The wound healing process could be accelerated through bacterial inactivation using some semiconductor nanomaterials with the irradiation of light. Herein, we develop sunlight triggered bismuth telluride-bismuth oxychloride heterostructure nanosheets as antibacterial agents for promoting wound healing, in which bismuth telluride can effectively narrow the bandgap of bismuth oxychloride, resulting in more sunlight absorption and higher antibacterial activity. In fact, the bandgap of bismuth oxychloride has been narrowed from 3.25 eV to 2.37 eV as proved by ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. With simulated sunlight irradiation, bismuth telluride-bismuth oxychloride nanosheets could effectively produce reactive oxygen species and inhibit the growth of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. In vivo experiments further confirmed the excellent wound healing capability of bismuth telluride-bismuth oxychloride nanosheets. This work may provide a facile strategy for designing sunlight triggered bacterial inactivation agents.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC) is one of the most commonly used broad-spectrum antibiotics to treat the bacterial infection. TC antibiotics enter into the environment because of partial metabolism in the humans and animals, thereby increasing the environmental toxicity. Therefore, it is highly needed to treat TC antibiotics from the water system. In this aspect, the present work focus on the synthesis of Fe and Zn (bimetal) incorporated with different concentrations into the bismuth-oxy-iodide (Fe/Zn-BiOI) based photocatalyst materials. The synthesized Fe/Zn-BiOI was tested against photocatalytic degradation of TC antibiotics and bacteria. The band gap value of the synthesized Fe/Zn-BiOI was calculated ~2.19 eV. The incorporation of the Fe and Zn metals within the BiOI aided advantages that increased the reactive sites, oxygen defects, photon adsorption, production of hydroxyl radicals, and decrease the recombination rate, thereby high photo-degradation ability. The maximum degradation of ~83% was observed using Fe/Zn-BiOI-1-1 at 10 mg/L of TC antibiotics concentration. Moreover, ~98% of degradation was observed at pH~10 of the TC antibiotics. The photo-activity against bacteria of the Fe/Zn-BiOI was also determined. The data suggested that the synthesized Fe/Zn-BiOI based photocatalyst materials effectively inhibited the bacterial strains. Therefore, Fe/Zn-BiOI based photocatalyst materials might be promising materials that effectively degrade TC antibiotics as well as bacteria.

Abstract
Pharmaceutical active compounds (PhACs), as a kind of widely used pharmaceutical drugs, has attracted much attention. The bismuth oxyhalides (BiOX)-based photocatalysis can remove PhACs efficiently due to its unique layered structure, optical and electronic properties. Nevertheless, the rapid recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, and the inherent instability of structure have limited its practical application. In order to solve these problems, recent modification studies tend to focus on facet control, elemental doping, bismuth-rich strategies, defect engineering and heterojunction. Therefore, the objective of this review is to summarize the recent developments in multiply modified strategies for PhACs degradation. The synthesis methods, photocatalytic properties and the enhancement mechanism are elaborated. Besides, based on theoretical calculation, the reactive sites of typical PhACs attacked by different reactive oxygen species were also proposed. Subsequently, challenges and opportunities in applications are also featured which include factors, viz., dissolution of halogen ions, instability under visible light, applications of real water/wastewater, intermediates and byproducts toxicity analysis of BiOX-based photocatalysis. Finally, the perspectives of BiOX-based photocatalysis for PhACs photodegradation in actual water applications are highlighted.
