Semiconductor-based photocatalysis attracts wide attention owing to its ability to directly utilize solar energy for the production of solar fuels. In particular, the construction of Z-scheme heterojunctions is demonstrated to benefit the photocatalytic performance because of the separation and transfer of the photogenerated charge carriers and well-preserved strong redox ability. In this work, a series of Z-scheme Ag3PO4/WO3 p–n junction photocatalysts were prepared employing a facile impregnation method. The photocatalysts (Ag3PO4/WO3 p–n junction) presented enhanced photo-degradation efficiency; for example, with AW-45, 99.9% degradation could be obtained for RhB (30 ppm) on irradiation (λ > 420 nm, 350 W xenon lamp) for 7 min, which is a great improvement compared with the individual constituents. The degradation rate for AW-45 was 27 times higher than that of a commercial powder (P25). The apparent kinetic rate of catalytic degradation was obtained according to the results from the degradation process. The mechanism for electron transfer between Ag3PO4 and WO3 was also investigated. The reduction and oxidation processes concentrated on the CB (conducting band) of Ag3PO4 and the VB (valence band) of WO3, resulting in promoting the mechanism for photocatalytic degradation in the Z-scheme Ag3PO4/WO3 p–n junction photocatalysts.

Linear terminal olefin epoxidation is a significant oxidation reaction for the synthesis of valuable industrial intermediates. As typical olefin epoxidation catalysts, supported tungsten oxides are rich in oxygen vacancies, which have been investigated for improving catalytic performance in other reactions, but the influence on olefin epoxidation is rarely studied. Herein, a series of WO3−x/SBA-15 catalysts with different oxygen vacancy concentrations were obtained by impregnation and sequent hydrogen reduction at 300–600 °C. Their catalytic performances for 1-hexene epoxidation with hydrogen peroxide at 70 °C were studied. It was found that an appropriate concentration of oxygen vacancies could improve epoxidation (the epoxide productivity increased from 135 to 196 μmolepoxide gW−1 min−1) and reduce the apparent activation energy (from 51.6 to 46.9 kJ mol−1). The oxygen vacancies are also beneficial for cycloolefin and other linear olefin epoxidation. In particular, the productivity of cyclooctene oxide was promoted from 4161 to 5744 μmolepoxide gW−1 min−1. This promotion effect was attributed to the increase in the number of Lewis acid sites caused by introducing moderate oxygen vacancies, which could improve the activation of hydrogen peroxide and facilitate epoxidation. In situ FT-IR spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations further indicated that increasing the oxygen vacancies contributes to reducing the energy barrier of the transfer of electrophilic oxygen atoms in active intermediate W–OOH to 1-hexene, thereby promoting epoxidation.

Ethylene (C 2 H 4 ) and pathogenic microorganisms are the two major causes of the deterioration of postharvest fruits and vegetables (F&V). Hence, the development of active packaging with C 2 H 4 scavenging and bactericidal activities is urgently desirable. Herein, a novel photocatalytic active film (CS-PC-AC) is developed for banana preservation by incorporating WO 3 /AgBr/Ag photocatalyst (PC) and activated carbon (AC) into chitosan (CS). The fabricated PC is a ternary Z -scheme heterojunction and its high photocatalytic activity is achieved by the bridge of Ag between WO 3 and AgBr through rapid transfer and separation of photogenerated electrons and holes. AC plays an indispensable role in the photocatalytic reaction through molecule adsorption and transport. PC and AC are hydrogen bonded with chitosan and their incorporation has slight effect on film's thermal stability but decreases the film's mechanical and barrier properties to some extent. CS-PC-AC exhibits strong bactericidal activity (killing ~100 % of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus within 3 h) and good C 2 H 4 scavenging activity (C 2 H 4 scavenging rate of 49 ± 2 %) under visible light irradiation , which can extend the banana shelf-life by at least 50 % at 25 °C. These results indicate the good perspective of CS-PC-AC in the delay of the deterioration of postharvest F&V.

Graphical Reverse the microemulsion : Through adjusting the phase inversion in the reverse microemulsion system by using supercritical carbon dioxide, 2D/2D WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 heterojunction photocatalyst is constructed via a one-pot method, which exhibits excellent photocatalytic activities towards the hydrogen evolution during water splitting. Construction of Z-scheme photocatalyst is an effective approach for using solar energy to produce hydrogen during water splitting. Herein, 2D/2D WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 heterojunction photocatalyst was synthesized by a convenient and green method including exfoliation and heterojunction procedures, in the reverse microemulsion system via supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO 2 ). The resultant W/CN-10.3 composite exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activities towards the hydrogen evolution during water splitting with a hydrogen evolution rate of 688.51 μmol g −1 h −1 , which was more than 16 times higher than bulk g-C 3 N 4 with the same loading amount of Pt as cocatalyst. Due to its effective separation of photogenerated carriers and prolonged lifetime, more photoexcited electrons with high reduction ability could contribute to the production of H 2 . Possible formation mechanism of 2D-2D WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets via scCO 2 in the reverse microemulsion system by the one-pot method has been proposed. This work provides an efficient and green strategy to synthesize 2D-2D heterojunction for the utilization in solar-to-fuel conversion.

Development of an efficient cathode in advanced oxidation process is an important challenge. In this work, we synthesized a low-cost, high-catalytic-active and stable reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-Ce/WO 3 nanosheets (RCW) to modify carbon felt (CF) as cathode to degrade ciprofloxacin (CIP) in electro-Fenton process. Compared to traditional heterogeneous electro-Fenton process, carbon black was substituted by RGO and poly tetra fluoroethylene was avoided to be used as binder. We found that RCW/CF cathode reached about 100% degradation efficiency of CIP after 1 h and 98.55% mineralization degree after 8 h. Meanwhile, it had a very high current density, about 2.5 times that of CF. RCW/CF cathode produced more O 2 − , H 2 O 2 and OH via one-electron reduction process (O 2 → O 2 - →H 2 O 2 ). The modified cathode kept a stable performance for high CIP degradation efficiency during 5 cycles. The introduction of RGO could promote electron transfer, and the adding of Ce into the WO 3 lattice provided superior conditions for the adsorption and activation of oxygen molecules, thus promoting the formation of active oxygen species on the surface of RCW. This novel RCW/CF composite is an efficient and promising electrode for removal of CIP in the wastewater.

WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 (graphitic carbon nitride) composite was prepared via a directly calcination method with ammonium tungstate hydrate and melamine as raw materials, and applied in the photocatalytic oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) to 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) for the first time. Its physicochemical properties were characterized by HR(TEM), XRD, FT-IR, XP, UV-vis, PL, PC and EIS methods. The results revealed that the doping of WO 3 into g-C 3 N 4 can reduce the possibility of charge recombination and thus enhancing the photocatalytic activity. The impact factor, such as incident wavelength, reaction time, and solvent were also studied on the photocatalytic behavior. 4.7%WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 composite catalyst exhibits the highest 5-HMF conversion of 27.4% with DFF selectivity of 87.2% under the irradiation of visible-light (>400 nm). As the active species, O 2 − and h + plays an important role to convert 5-HMF to DFF. Finally, the Z-scheme mechanism and reaction route were proposed by combining the photocatalytic performance with the active oxygen species research of the WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 catalyst.

Artificial Z-scheme photocatalyst can not only reduce the recombination of photogeneraged electron–holepairs, but also retain prominent redox ability. In this study, direct solid-state dual Z-scheme WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 /Bi 2 O 3 photocatalyst was successfully synthesized by one step co-calcination stratage using tungstic acid, melamine and bismuth (III) nitrate pentahydrate as the precursors. Surface, morphological, and structural properties of the resulting materials were comprehensive characterized by XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, UV–vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy, BET surface areas, photoluminescence and ESR analysis. The WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 /Bi 2 O 3 composite exhibited superior photocatalytic activities for tetracycline degradation than that of pure g-C 3 N 4 , WO 3 , Bi 2 O 3 and their binary composites under visible light irradiation. The enhanced photocatalytic performance of WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 /Bi 2 O 3 composite can be ascribed to improved visible light absorption, increased surface area and enhanced separation efficiency of photo-generated electron-hole pairs. In addition, the photocatalyst exhibits high stability and reusability. On the basis of the results, a novel direct solid-state dual Z-scheme photocatalytic mechanism was also proposed.

Hydrolysis of ammonia borane (AB) is a safe and convenient means of H2 production when efficient catalysts are used. Here we report a facile one-pot solvothermal method to synthesize Rh/WO3−x hybrid nanowires. Ultra-small Rh nanoparticles with an average size of ∼1.7 nm were tightly anchored on WO3−x nanowires. Rh/WO3−x catalysts exhibited substantially enhanced activity for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of AB under both dark and visible light irradiation conditions relative to mixed Rh nanoparticles and WO3−x nanowires (Rh + WO3−x), and Rh/C and WO3−x nanowires. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis indicated that the synergistic effect between Rh nanoparticles and WO3−x nanowires was responsible for such an enhancement in activity. Specifically, Rh/WO3−x achieved the highest turnover frequency (TOF) with a value of 805.0 molH2 molRh−1 min−1 at room temperature under visible light irradiation. The H2 release rate as a function of reaction time exhibited a volcano plot under visible light irradiation, indicating that a self-activation process occurred in the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of AB due to additional oxygen vacancies arising from in situ reduction of WO3−x nanowires by AB, and thus an enhanced localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). Such a self-activation process was responsible for the enhanced catalytic activity under visible light irradiation relative to that under dark conditions, which was supported by the lower activation energy (45.2 vs. 50.5 kJ mol−1). In addition, Rh/WO3−x catalysts were relatively stable with only little loss in activity after five cycles due to the tight attachment between two components.

Elegant Z-scheme WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 composite hollow microspheres (CHMs) were constructed through precisely controlled in situ hydrolysis and a polymerization process consecutively. The formation of intact and well-defined hollow microspheres can be realized through optimizing the ratio of precursors for WO 3 and g-C 3 N 4 . The shell of these hollow microspheres consist of well-distributed WO 3 and g-C 3 N 4 nanoparticles, and excellent heterojunctions with numerous interfaces and highly exposed oxidation-reduction active sites have thus been built. By virtue of this special architecture, more incident photons are expected to be trapped in the hollow cavities, which contribute to more electrons and holes available for photocatalytic reactions. Moreover, these photoinduced hole-electron pairs could be effectively separated, and the lifetime of charge carriers reaches 2.23 ns, which is obviously prolonged compared with the WO 3 . WO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 CHMs as an optimized Z-scheme system retains the original oxidation and reduction abilities for the components without change of the oxidation and reduction potential. Combined with the long survival time of holes and electrons, this photocatalyst showed enhanced degradation rates towards tetracycline hydrochloride (TC-HCl) and ceftiofur sodium (CFS).

Geometric architecture of composite photocatalytic system creates a favorable chance for enhanced photocatalytic activity, which is a challenging and rewarding direction in this area. Here, a novel and highly efficient three-components composite consisting of dispersive WO 3 nanowires, g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets and RGO as solid electron mediator was successfully designed, synthesized and characterized. The WO 3 /RGO/g-C 3 N 4 composite exhibited markedly enhanced activity for the photocatalytic degradation of aflatoxin B 1 under visible-light irradiation compared with single and binary catalysts. It was found that the synergistic effects coexisted in this ternary composites that depended on the geometric architecture and interface combination of components. The Z-scheme system formed when RGO was as an interlayer between WO 3 and g-C 3 N 4 , while the mechanism was the heterojunction-type in absence of RGO. It was found that the O 2 − , h + and OH were main active radicals during photodegradation of AFB 1 over ternary composites, which was proved by the radical trapping tests and ESR detection. Finally, a probable enhanced photocatalytic degradation mechanism of ternary composites and the degradation products were also proposed. This work may not only provide beneficial information to design and synthesis of effective composites system, but also present a new way to remove the refractory natural pollutant.

Low carrier mobility of WO 3 material limited its application and development in the field of optoelectronic devices , especially used in photodetectors. Herein, a quasi-solid-state photoelectrochemical photodetector based on WO 3 film and solid-state electrolyte (PVA/ZnSO 4 ) was constructed. The WO 3 film was prepared by a hydrothermal method . The obtained WO 3 /PVA/ZnSO 4 quasi-solid-state photoelectrochemical photodetector exhibits superior near ultraviolet light detection performance and better stability compared with the traditional WO 3 /ZnSO 4 photoelectrochemical detector. Considered the volatility of water in the electrolyte, a small amount of NaCl was added into the electrolyte to increase the water retention property of the electrolyte. The obtained results demonstrate that NaCl has some water retention property and can improve the stability of the device effectively. These obtained results provide the data foundation for the research and development of photodetectors based on WO 3 materials.

The efficient treatment of dye wastewater has been a hot topic of environment field. The integration of adsorption and photocatalytic degradation via fabrication of bi-component heterojunction photocatalyst is considered as a facile and effective strategy to enhance the dye elimination efficiency. In this report, a Z-scheme heterojunction material, SrTiO 3 (La,Cr)/WO 3 with bifunction of adsorption and photocatalysis was successfully synthesized for efficient removal of methylene blue (MB) under visible light irradiation. The morphology and microstructure characterization demonstrates that the SrTiO 3 (La,Cr) nanoparticles are uniformly decorated on the WO 3 nanosheets, forming an intimate heterojunction interface. MB degradation results indicate that the removal efficiency by the synergistic adsorption-photocatalysis process is greatly improved compared to pure WO 3 and SrTiO 3 (La,Cr) with the adsorption and photocatalytic activity closely related to the composition of the material. The possible mechanism for the enhanced photocatalytic activity could be ascribed to the formation of a Z-scheme heterojunction system based on active species trapping experiments. Furthermore, the investigations of adsorption kinetics and isotherm show that the adsorption process follows pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm, respectively. Due to the synergistic advantages of negative zeta potential, large surface area and accelerated separation of photogenerated carriers driven by Z-scheme heterojunction, SrTiO 3 (La,Cr)/WO 3 exhibits excellent adsorption-photocatalytic performance and stability on MB removal, which could be potentially used for practical wastewater treatment.
