A novel pretreatment method was used to ameliorate the treatment effect of iodine contained radioactive waste. The pretreatment sample (15 w%) held the highest amorphous index (0.50) at 600 °C, and iodine element was in a state of uniform distribution. The density of the sample could increase to 2.95 gcm 3 by using the novel method, which was higher than other similar studies. The leaching result of iodine was as low as 1.53 × 10 6 gm 2 d 1 after 7 days treatment, which indicated that the solidified body has good stability in a long run. Graphic abstract

The development of an effective and stable photochemical sensor is urgently needed to solve the growing environmental pollution problem caused by immoderate usage of the organic phosphorus pesticide, chlorpyrifos. Under the circumstances, 2D/2D Z-scheme β-Bi2O3/g-C3N4 heterojunctions have been attempted to fabricate a photoelectrochemical sensor, which can detect chlorpyrifos selectively and sensitively. The 2D/2D intimate contact interfaces could facilitate the separation and migration of electron–hole pairs. Consequently, β-Bi2O3/g-C3N4 composites possess higher photocurrent response than single β-Bi2O3 and g-C3N4. After incubation with chlorpyrifos, in situ formed Bi–chlorpyrifos complex blocks the transformation of photogenerated charges, and thus contributes to a dramatic decline in photocurrent signal intensity and selective determination of chlorpyrifos. The novel photoelectrochemical sensor with strong stability presents a perfect linear relationship between photocurrent intensity and logarithm of chlorpyrifos concentration ranging from 0.01 to 80 ng mL−1, and displays excellent properties over a wide linear range with an ideal detection limit of 0.03 ng mL−1 (S/N = 3). To some extent, the Z-scheme β-Bi2O3/g-C3N4 sensor is promising for the detection of chlorpyrifos pesticides in practical environmental pollution treatment applications.

A facile and feasible method was successfully utilized to incorporate Bi2O3 and g-C3N4 quantum dots on TiO2 surface to synthesize a novel composite g-C3N4/TiO2/Bi2O3. The photocatalytic activity of the composite g-C3N4/TiO2/Bi2O3 for degradation of dyes under sunlight and UV light irradiation was evaluated. It possessed the higher photocatalytic performance than that of pristine TiO2 or g-C3N4 under the same conditions. Under sunlight irradiation, the reaction rate constants of the g-C3N4/TiO2/Bi2O3 was about 4.2 times and 3.3 times higher than that of TiO2 and g-C3N4, respectively. The promising photocatalytic performance was attributed to the broader light absorption range and efficient separation of photoinduced carriers. Moreover, based on the TEM, XPS, XRD, UV-vis spectrum, radicals scavenging test and Mott–Schottky analysis systematic mechanism for photodegradation process was proposed. This work provides a promising strategy for the modification of TiO2-based semiconductors by incorporating different quantum dots and promoting the efficiency of the photocatalysts in practical application.

The sensitive detection and efficient removal of heavy metal ions with high toxicity and mobility are of great importance for the environmental monitoring and control. Here, a novel SnS-decorated Bi 2 O 3 nanosheets heterostructure was synthesized via a facile hydro/solvothermal strategy. The as-prepared SnS-Bi 2 O 3 nanocomposites presented impressive merits of the high surface area, mesoporous channels and fast electron transfer for the electrochemical reactions . And the synergistic interaction between SnS and Bi 2 O 3 significantly improved the “deposition-stripping” process involving electron transfer, mass diffusion and phase transition. With the unique characteristics, the SnS-Bi 2 O 3 nanocomposites exhibited improved sensitivity and robust stability on the electrochemical detection of Cd(II) and Pb(II) with low LODs of 1.50 nM and 1.40 nM, respectively, and were successfully applied on the detection of Cd(II) and Pb(II) in tap water and lake water samples. Furthermore, the electrochemical removal performance towards Cd(II) and Pb(II) was achieved as well. These SnS-Bi 2 O 3 nanocomposites could serve as an efficient platform on the detection and removal of heavy metal ions in environmental electrochemistry .

In this work, Au/Bi2O3 was synthesized by loading Au nanoparticles (NPs) onto β-Bi2O3 by a simple solution reduction method. β-Bi2O3 was synthesized by a precipitation-thermal decomposition procedure, which results in significantly improved SERS detection limits down to 10−9 M for methylene blue (MB) and 10−7 M for methyl orange (MO) as probe molecules, comparable to those reported for the best semiconductor SERS substrates. In particular, further deposition of Au NPs (5.20% wt%) onto β-Bi2O3 results in a two-order-of-magnitude enhancement in detection sensitivity, achieving a detection limit of 10−11 M for MB and 10−9 M for MO. Under ultraviolet/visible irradiation, the Au/Bi2O3 hybrids substrate exhibits superior self-cleaning ability due to its photocatalytic degradation ability which can be applied repeatedly to the detection of pollutants. The advanced composite substrate simultaneously achieved ultra-low mass loading of Au NPs, outstanding detection performance, good reproducibility, high stability and self-cleaning ability. The development strategy of low load noble metal coupled high performance semiconductor β-Bi2O3 to obtain nano-hybrid materials provides a method to balance SERS sensitivity, cost effectiveness and operational stability, and can be synthesized in large quantities, which is a key step towards commercialization and has good reliability prospects.

SrTiO 3 /Bi 2 O 3 heterojunction semiconductor was prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV–vis absorption spectrum , and scanning electron microscope, surface photovoltage spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The surface photovoltage spectra indicate that the separation efficiency of photoinduced charges for SrTiO 3 /Bi 2 O 3 was enhanced compared with that of SrTiO 3 or Bi 2 O 3 . The energy band diagram of SrTiO 3 /Bi 2 O 3 heterojunction was directly determined with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and the conduction band offset between SrTiO 3 and Bi 2 O 3 was quantified to be 0.28±0.03 eV. The photoluminescence spectra display that the recombination rate of photoinduced carriers for SrTiO 3 /Bi 2 O 3 decreases compared with that of SrTiO 3 or Bi 2 O 3 , which is mainly due to the energy levels matching between them. Therefore the enhanced separation efficiency of photoinduced charges is resulting from the energy difference between the conduction band edges of SrTiO 3 and Bi 2 O 3 .

In this work, water-soluble Yb3+/Er3+ codoped Bi2O3 upconversion (UC) nanospheres with uniform morphology have been successfully synthesized via a solid-state-chemistry thermal decomposition process. With 980 nm near-infrared irradiation, the Bi2O3:Yb3+/Er3+ nanospheres have bright UC luminescence (UCL). Moreover, multicolor UC emissions (from green to red) can be tuned by simply changing the Yb3+ ions doping concentration. After citric acid molecules were grafted on the surface of Bi2O3:20% Yb3+/2% Er3+ nanospheres, the MTT assay on HeLa cells and CCK-8 assay on osteoblasts show that the UC nanospheres exhibit excellent stability and biocompatibility. The possibility of using these nanoprobes with red UCL for optical imaging in vivo has been demonstrated. Furthermore, Bi3+ and Yb3+ containing nanospheres as binary contrast agent also exhibited significant enhancement of contrast efficacy than iodine-based contrast agent via X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging at different voltage setting (80–140 kVp), indicating they have potential as CT imaging contrast agent. Thus, Yb3+/Er3+ codoped Bi2O3 nanospheres could be used as dual modality probe for optical and CT imagings.

This study utilized X-diffraction, BET, photoluminescence , UV–vis DRS, FTIR , SEM, XPS , TOC analysis, EPR , electrochemical measurements, and LC-MS to characterize the structural characteristics, morphology, optical properties , photocatalytic activity , surface electronic states, active compounds, and potential photodegradation pathways of rhodamine B (RhB) over as-prepared Bi 2 O 3. The as-prepared Bi 2 O 3 photocatalyst exhibited a narrow bandgap, which enabled efficient absorption of visible light, thereby contributing to its enhanced photocatalytic activity. Additionally, Bi 2 O 3 exhibited a high degradation efficiency for RhB. with up to 96.8 % of RhB removed within 120 min at pH 3.0. The excellent photocatalytic performance of Bi 2 O 3 can be attributed to the formation of the heterogeneous Bi 2 O 3 /BiOCl structure on the Bi 2 O 3 surface in the presence of HCl. Moreover, the TOC analysis revealed that over 58.1 % of the carbon in the RhB solution was mineralized into CO 2 after 120 min of irradiation. The effect of catalyst content, RhB concentration, initial pH, and inorganic anions on the photocatalytic degradation of RhB over Bi 2 O 3 was examined. Furthermore, the active compounds and potential photocatalytic mechanism of the Bi 2 O 3 /BiOCl heterogeneous structure toward RhB were evaluated. The intermediates formed during RhB degradation were identified, and the corresponding degradation pathway was deduced via LC-MS.

Herein, MgO–12 % TiO 2 (w) ceramics with different contents of Bi 2 O 3 –CuO sintering aid were prepared using a solid-state method. The effects of the sintering aid content on the sintering temperature and the dielectric and mechanical properties of the ceramics were studied. The material was characterized using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction and Precision LCR tester and universal testing machine and Archimedes drainage method. When the Bi 2 O 3 –CuO content was less than 9 wt%, the ceramic sample has higher dielectric properties. When the Bi 2 O 3 –CuO content was greater than 9 wt%, the dielectric properties will deteriorate. This is because Bi 2 O 3 participates in the chemical reaction between MgO and TiO 2 , forming a high dielectric loss Bi 4 Ti 3 O 7 phase. At high temperatures, Cu 2+ can easily change valence to Cu + , promoting oxygen vacancies and increasing dielectric loss in ceramic samples. The introduction of Bi 2 O 3 –CuO produces new MgTiO 3 , Mg 2 TiO 4 , and Bi 4 Ti 3 O 12 phases in the sample structure, resulting in a structure in which the MgO grains in the sample are surrounded by the new phases that appear around them. This structure fills the pores, increases density, enhances mechanical properties. The dielectric properties of the ceramics were the when the sintering temperature was 1050 °C, and the Bi 2 O 3 –CuO content was 3 wt%. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss were 11.19 and 1.17 × 10 −4 , respectively. The bending strength of the ceramic sample increased from 138.72 MPa to 179.64 MPa when the Bi 2 O 3 –CuO content was increased from 3 wt% to 15 wt%. The Bi 2 O 3 –CuO sintering aid enables MgO to be better applied in ceramic substrates.

The production of cheap, efficient, and stable photocatalysts for degrading antibiotic contaminants remains challenging. Herein, Bi 2 O 3 /boron nitride (BN)/Co 3 O 4 ternary composites were synthesized using the impregnation method. The morphological characteristics, structural features, and photochemical properties of the prepared photocatalysts were investigated via X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and ultraviolet–visible (Vis) diffuse reflectance spectrum techniques. BN was used as a charge transfer bridge in the ternary composites, which afforded a heterojunction between the two semiconductors. The formation of the heterojunction substantially enhanced the charge separation and improved the photocatalyst performance. The degradation activity of the Bi 2 O 3 /BN/Co 3 O 4 ternary composites against norfloxacin (NOR) under Vis light irradiation was investigated. The degradation rate of NOR using 5-wt% Bi 2 O 3 /BN/Co 3 O 4 reached 98% in 180 min, indicating excellent photocatalytic performance. The ternary composites also exhibited high photostability with a degradation efficiency of 88.4% after five cycles. Hydroxyl radicals (•OH), superoxide radicals (•O 2 − ), and holes (h + ) played a synergistic role in the photocatalytic reaction, where h + and •O 2 − were more important than •OH. Consequently, seven intermediates and major photocatalytic degradation pathways were identified. Toxicity experiments showed that the toxicity of the degradation solution to Chlorella pyrenoidosa decreased. Finally, the ecotoxicity of NOR and its intermediates were analyzed using the Toxicity Estimation Software Tool, with most intermediates exhibiting low toxicity.

In this paper, a modification of g-C 3 N 4 was carried out by combining non-metal doping with the construction of heterojunctions, and a type II heterojunction composite, S/g-C 3 N 4 @β-Bi 2 O 3 , was prepared. The phase structure, morphology, elemental composition, valence band structure, and light absorption performance of the photocatalyst were analyzed using characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV–vis DRS). The performance of the composite photocatalyst in the photocatalytic degradation of gaseous toluene, one of the typical volatile organic compounds (VOCs), under simulated solar light was studied. The effects of preparation conditions, toluene concentration, and recycling on the photocatalytic performance of the composite photocatalyst were investigated. The results show that under the optimal preparation conditions, S/g-C 3 N 4 @β-Bi 2 O 3 achieved a degradation efficiency of 74.0% for 5 ppm toluene after 5 h of light irradiation. Although the degradation efficiency decreased to 61.2% after five cycles, it maintained 83% of its initial activity, indicating good stability of the composite photocatalyst. Free radical quenching experiments demonstrated that h + was the main active species in the photocatalytic degradation of toluene, followed by ·O 2 − . Based on all experimental results, the migration law of photo-generated charges was analyzed, and a possible photocatalytic mechanism was proposed. In this study, a new material was obtained for the photocatalytic removal of VOCs by improving the photocatalytic properties of g-C 3 N 4 .
