摘要
In this work,a novel dual Z-scheme Bi_(2)WO_(6)/g-C_(3)N_(4)/black phosphorus quantum dots(Bi_(2)WO_(6)/g-C_(3)N_(4)/BPQDs)composites were fabricated and utilized towards photocatalytic degradation of bisphenol A(BPA)under visible-light irradiation.Optimizing the content of g-C_(3)N_(4) and BPQDs in Bi_(2)WO_(6)/g-C_(3)N_(4)/BPQDs composites to a suitable mass ratio can enhance the visible-light harvesting capacity and increase the charge separation efficiency and the transfer rate of excited-state electrons and holes,resulting in much higher photocatalytic activity for BPA degradation(95.6%,at 20 mg/L in 120 min)than that of Bi2WO6(63.7%),g-C_(3)N_(4)(25.0%),BPQDs(8.5%),and Bi_(2)WO_(6)/g-C_(3)N_(4)(79.6%),respectively.Radical trapping experiments indicated that photogenerated holes(h+)and superoxide radicals(•O_(2)−)played crucial roles in photocatalytic BPA degradation.Further,the possible degradation pathway and photocatalytic mechanism was proposed by analyzing the BPA intermediates.Thiswork also demonstrated that the Bi2WO6/g-C_(3)N_(4)/BPQDs as effective photocatalystswas stable and have promising potential to remove environmental contaminants from real water samples.
