A magnetic ternary double Z-scheme ATP-g-C 3 N 4 /SnFe 2 O 4 /Bi 2 WO 6 (AG/SFO/BWO) heterojunction was prepared by a simple and green hydrothermal process, which was successfully used in the dye degradation . AG/7.5 %SFO/BWO catalyst demonstrated outstanding visible-light-induced degradation, achieving an impressive 96.72 % degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) in 2 h. Compared with Bi 2 WO 6 (BWO) and SnFe 2 O 4 /Bi 2 WO 6 (SFO/BWO), the degradation efficacy was increased about 1.65 and 1.16 times, respectively. After being used for five batches, the degradation rate of RhB remained over 90 %. Moreover, AG/7.5 %SFO/BWO showcased remarkable efficacy in degrading methylene blue (MB), Congo red (CR), and tetracycline (TC). Bacterial toxicity test indicated the toxicity of dyes was rapidly decreased in 24 h. Physicochemical properties and morphological characteristics of the prepared photocatalysts were investigated by various methods, including XRD , FTIR, XPS , SEM, TEM , BET, VSM , UV–vis, and EIS . AG/7.5 %SFO/BWO, utilizing a dual-Z scheme pathway, efficiently absorbed broad light, yielding multiple active agents, primarily hole (h + ) and superoxide radical •O 2 − . The double Z-scheme heterojunction structure enhanced the electron-hole separation and ensured a stable photochemical environment. UPLC-HRMS was used to identify intermediates during the RhB degradation. Its degradation pathway and catalytic mechanism were illustrated systematically. The bio-toxicity (acute toxicity, developmental toxicity, and mutagenicity) of the intermediates was also evaluated by T.E.S.T.

Nano magnetic particles immobilized on the surface of carbon spheres ( M Fe 2 O 4 /CNS, M = Mn, Ni, Zn) composites have been obtained through a facile and environmental friendly solvothermal method. The measurement results of M Fe 2 O 4 /CNS clarified the successful preparation of M Fe 2 O 4 /CNS and characterization of composites. Meanwhile, the activation performance of M Fe 2 O 4 /CNS was also measured through catalyzing persulfate (PS) for degrading Rhodamine B. Results showed that the catalytic performance of M Fe 2 O 4 /CNS for PS activation was much stronger than that of pure CNS, and the catalytic ability of M Fe 2 O 4 /CNS was MnFe 2 O 4 /CNS > NiFe 2 O 4 /CNS > ZnFe 2 O 4 /CNS. The influence factors of Rhodamine B degradation were also investigated. When the optimum conditions were conducted, with PS 5 × 10 –3 M, MnFe 2 O 4 /CNS 0.5 g/L, initial pH 6.0, and 60 °C, 98.4% Rhodamine B degradation was obtained within 70 min. Finally, the recycle of MnFe 2 O 4 /CNS was carried out for four times, which demonstrated the favorable retrievability and reusability of MnFe 2 O 4 /CNS. The experiments also proved that the synthesized MnFe 2 O 4 /CNS was a potentially useful catalyst for contaminants degradation in water/wastewater treatment.

Addressing the environmental impact of heavy metal ions and organic dye pollution from industrial processes is a critical challenge for sustainable development. Herein, an innovative approach is reported to sustainable purification of industrial wastewater through the synthesis of magnetic γ-Fe 2 O 3 @NiFe-layered double hydroxides (γ-Fe 2 O 3 @NiFe-LDHs) from wastewater containing various heavy metal ions, which are recovered by a magnetic field and then applied to Rhodamine B (RhB) wastewater treatment. The synthesized γ-Fe 2 O 3 @NiFe-LDHs were proved to possess LDHs characteristics, as confirmed through a comprehensive suite of techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis. Remarkably, these γ-Fe 2 O 3 @NiFe-LDHs demonstrate exceptional efficacy in removing high concentrations of heavy metal ions (including Fe, Ni, Cr, Cu, Ca, Al, and Mg), as well as Mn, achieving removal efficiencies of 99.99 % and 97.89 %, respectively, through highly super-stable mineralization process. Meanwhile, the integration of multiple transition metals (Ni, Fe, Cr, Cu, and Mn) within the NiFe-LDHs laminates enables critical electronic cycling for RhB degradation via Fe-based Fenton-like reactions, achieving both cost-effective and highly efficient catalytic performance. Specifically, these γ-Fe 2 O 3 @NiFe-LDHs facilitated the degradation of RhB (100 mL, 50 mg/L) to an impressive 96.44 % without any light irradiation, and notably retained catalytic activity across several reused cycles. This environmentally friendly approach promotes sustainable treatment among different industrial wastewaters and offers great potential for the development of multilevel resource utilization and green environmental management.

A magnetic MnFe2O4-modified graphite-like porous biochar composite (MnFe2O4/KFS800) was synthesized by the hydrothermal method, and its catalytic activity was evaluated in the activation of peroxydisulfate toward degradation of Rhodamine B. After characterization by SEM, XRD, and the BET method, the specific surface area and total pore volume of the MnFe2O4/KFS800 catalyst reached 121 m2/g and 0.263 m3/g, and exhibited plate-like morphology with good crystallinity. The degradation rate of Rhodamine B by the obtained composite was more than 91.1% when the initial concentration of RhB was 10 mg/L, the dosage of MnFe2O4/KFS800 was 0.2 g/L, and the initial pH was 6.7. Then the anti-interference ability of the obtained composite was studied, and it was found that there was a little effect on the degradation of Rhodamine B with the presence of humic acid. Finally, quenching test, EPR research, and XPS analysis were conducted to reveal the catalytic mechanism, and possible mechanism was a synergistic behavior of free radicals (SO4•–, •OH, O2•–) and nonfree radicals (1O2), and trace amounts of uncarbonized bagasse was also involved in the formation of free radicals.

A cellulose-based carbon aerogel (CTN) loaded with titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) was prepared using sol–gel, freeze-drying, and high-temperature carbonization methods. The formation of the sol–gel was carried out through a one-pot method using refining papermaking pulp, tetrabutyl titanate, and urea as raw materials and hectorite as a cross-linking and reinforcing agent. Due to the cross-linking ability of hectorite, the carbonized aerogel maintained a porous structure and had a large specific surface area with low density (0.0209 g/cm 3 ). The analysis of XRD, XPS, and Raman spectra revealed that the titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) were uniformly distributed in the CTN, while TEM and SEM observations demonstrated the uniformly distributed three-dimensional porous structure of CTN. The photocatalytic activity of the CTN was determined according to its ability to degrade rhodamine B. The removal rate reached 89% under visible light after 120 min. In addition, the CTN was still stable after five reuse cycles. The proposed catalyst exhibits excellent photocatalytic performance under visible light conditions.

Reasonable interface design is a key factor to improve the activity of photocatalysts. In this paper, TiO 2 /Ti 3 C 2 composite photocatalyst with high activity of anatase/rutile mixed crystal were prepared by solid-phase milling-roasting method. The microstructure of the mixed-phase TiO 2 /Ti 3 C 2 composites could be adjusted by the calcination temperature and additive content. The results showed that NaBF 4 could promote the transformation of anatase TiO 2 to rutile TiO 2 . An appropriate amount of rutile TiO 2 forms a heterojunction with anatase TiO 2 , which enables efficient charge separation and transfer at the interfaces of the composites. The optimized sample (MT550) showed 98 % degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light irradiation within 180 min, which was 8 times higher than that of the sample without added NaBF 4 . This study presents a strategy for the synthesis of mixed-phase (anatase/rutile) TiO 2 /Ti 3 C 2 composites with high activity under visible light, which has potential in the design and application of photocatalytic materials.

Herein, Prussian blue analogues@poly(m-phenylenediamine) nanoparticles (PBA@PmPDs) with well-defined core-shell structure were synthesized. The successful coating of poly(m-phenylenediamine) (PmPD) on the surface of Fe y Co 3-y [Co(CN) 6 ] 2 (Fe-Co-Co PBA) was confirmed by SEM, TEM , XRD , TGA , FT-IR and XPS . The catalytic performance of Fe-Co-Co PBA@PmPDs was evaluated by activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB), the effects of different influence factors on the RhB degradation efficiency were investigated, including PMS concentration, temperature, initial solution pH, and co-existing inorganic salts. Cobalt ions leaching and stability of the catalysts were studied, Co ions concentration dissolved into the solution from the solid catalysts at 60 min is reduced by half after the Fe-Co-Co PBA is coated with PmPDs. The RhB removal efficiency is higher than 90% even after four cycles and the nanoparticles still maintain the core-shell structure, indicating that Fe-Co-Co PBA@PmPDs is stabile and reusable. Radical quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra indicate that both SO 4 − and OH are generated during the PMS activation process and SO 4 − is the dominant reactive species. In virtue of its superior catalytic activity, excellent reusability and stability, low metallic ion leaching, Fe-Co-Co PBA@PmPDs could be a promising catalyst for the remediation of contaminated water.

In recent years, cadmium sulfide (CdS) has been widely investigated due to its excellent photocatalytic performance. However, its practical application in pollutant treatment is limited by its narrow photoresponse range and susceptibility to photocorrosion. Herein, we design a unique four-layer core–shell structure NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ ,Er 3+ @NaYF 4 @CdS@Au (CSNPs@CdS@Au), with an inert NaYF 4 shell coating on NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ ,Er 3+ (CNPs) to form NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ ,Er 3+ @NaYF 4 (CSNPs) and CdS depositing on CSNPs (CSNPs@CdS); Au nanoparticles are loaded on CdS (CSNPs@CdS@Au). Compared with CdS (9.81%), CSNPs (5.0%), CSNPs/CdS (6.9%), and CSNPs@CdS (81.0%), CSNPs@CdS@Au degrades 97.7% Rhodamine B (RhB) within 15 min, exhibiting superior photocatalytic performance, attributable to two key factors: (1) the NaYF 4 inert shell encapsulation amplifies upconversion (UC) luminescence intensity by suppressing surface quenching; and (2) the electron transfer between Au nanoparticles and CdS effectively promotes spatial separation of photogenerated charge carriers and increases reactive active sites. Additionally, after five degradation cycles, CSNPs@CdS@Au still maintains a 93.25% degradation rate for RhB, confirming its excellent stability. This remarkable stability is attributed to the uniquely designed multilayer core–shell architecture, which significantly enhances structural integrity through physical isolation effects. This study establishes a material preparation strategy for efficient photocatalytic pollutant degradation.

A combined hydrothermal-calcination approach is developed to synthesize hierarchical β -Bi 2 O 3 /g-C 3 N 4 direct Z-scheme photocatalyst with enhanced visible light photoactivity for Rhodamine B (RhB) degradation. First, Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 microflowers were hydrothermally prepared using Bi(NO 3 ) 3 ·5H 2 O as feedstocks, and then a series of β -Bi 2 O 3 /g-C 3 N 4 direct Z-scheme photocatalysts were synthesized via a facile calcination method using Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 and g-C 3 N 4 as precursors. The samples were systematically characterized by various characterization technologies including X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopes, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and N 2 absorption-desorption equipment. It was found that the g-C 3 N 4 content in the precursors played a key role in affecting the photocatalytic activity of the final products. The β -Bi 2 O 3 /g-C 3 N 4 heterojunction exhibited higher photocatalytic activity than single active components ( β -Bi 2 O 3 and g-C 3 N 4 ), indicating the presence of a synergistic effect between two active components in β -Bi 2 O 3 /g-C 3 N 4 heterojunction. Among all as-prepared catalysts, the 70 wt.% g-C 3 N 4 /Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 exhibits the highest activity for RhB degradation, and the apparent reaction rate constant k (42.2 × 10 −3 min −1 ) is 3.1 and 1.7 times as high as that of pure β -Bi 2 O 3 (13.5 × 10 −3 min −1 ) and g-C 3 N 4 (25.2 × 10 −3 min −1 ), respectively. The enhanced photocatalytic performance of β -Bi 2 O 3 /g-C 3 N 4 heterostructure photocatalysts is mainly due to the high surface area, closely contacted interfaces between the β -Bi 2 O 3 and g-C 3 N 4 component, and the formation of direct Z-scheme structure in the β -Bi 2 O 3 /g-C 3 N 4 composites.

Three-dimensional carbon-based porous materials have proven to be quite useful for tailoring material properties in the energy conservation and environmental protection applications. In view of the three-dimensional and well-defined structure of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), a novel carbon-based magnetic porous material (HKUST–Fe3O4) has been designed and constructed by MOF–guest interactions of high-temperature pyrolysis. The obtained HKUST–Fe3O4 exhibited the unique features of superparamagnetism, a macro/mesoporous structure, environmental protection (inexistence of toxic heavy metal ions), and physicochemical stability and has shown high adsorption capacity and rapid adsorption for carcinogenic organic pollutants (for example, rhodamine B) with an environmentally friendly character and excellent reusability. We demonstrate that the unique/superior advantages of HKUST–Fe3O4 could meet the requirements of environment cleaning, especially for removing the targeted organic pollutant from water. Moreover, the specific HKUST–Fe3O4 and organic pollutant interaction mechanism has been analyzed in detail via parameter-free calculations. This study proposes a promising strategy for constructing novel carbon-based magnetic nanomaterials for various applications, not limitated to pollutant removal.

A series of novel visible-light-driven Ag/Ag 3 PO 4 /WO 3 (AAPW) Z-scheme heterostructures were fabricated using a facile deposition-precipitation method followed by photo-reduction without adding any surfactant . To explore more deeply about the photocatalytic activity of AAPW nanocomposites under neutral and strongly acidic/alkaline conditions, we investigated their photocatalytic rhodamine B (RhB) efficiency at different pH value that was controlled by adding HNO 3 or NaOH aqueous solution. It was found that as-prepared AAPW photocatalysts showed enhanced photocatalytic RhB efficiency under neutral and even strongly acidic/alkaline environment. The process of charge carrier separation and transfer in the AAPW nanocomposites and Z-scheme mechanism for RhB degradation were described in sufficient detail based on systematical characterizations and measurements. The silver particles introduced to build AAPW Z-scheme structure should contribute to more efficient charge separation, resulting in enhanced photocurrent response and photocatalytic activity . We expect that this work will provide systematic study concerning Z-scheme Ag/Ag 3 PO 4 /WO 3 structure, and fulfill the research about photodegrade activity of catalyst under strongly acidic/alkaline conditions.

Addressing the formidable challenge of treating significant quantities of organic dyes and heavy metal chromium in tannery wastewater, this study synthesized a novel Z-scheme La-MOF/BiOBr composite heterojunction photocatalyst via the hydrothermal method and established an efficient visible-light photocatalytic system. To comprehensively evaluate the photocatalytic redox activity, rhodamine B (RhB) and heavy metal Cr(VI) were selected as target pollutants. Kinetic analysis revealed that the optimal LM-BB-50 catalyst achieved over 99 % degradation of RhB and Cr(VI) within 15 min illumination, indicating the remarkable enhancement of Z-scheme heterojunction in photocatalytic oxidation and reduction efficiency. Based on various photoelectric analysis techniques, it was elucidated that the superior activity of the Z-scheme heterojunction originated from the modulation of the band structure upon La-MOF and BiOBr integration, significantly improving visible light absorption, electron-hole pair separation efficiency, and endowing the energy band with robust redox capabilities. Free radical capture and quenching experiments confirmed that photogenerated holes and superoxide radicals played a crucial role in RhB oxidation , while photogenerated electrons were the primary active species for Cr(VI) reduction.
