Abstract
- [Display omitted] • • Z-scheme CDs/Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 /ATP composite photocatalyst was successfully synthesized by dynamic adsorption method. • • The degradation efficiency of 3 wt% CDs/Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 /ATP for ciprofloxacin could reach up to 90% within 120 min under simulated sunlight. • • 3 wt% CDs/Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 /ATP composite photocatalyst had good stability for ciprofloxacin degradation. • • ·O 2 –, h+, and ·OH played a coordinating role in the degradation of ciprofloxacin under simulated sunlight. Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 material exhibits excellent performance in photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics, but high recombination rate of photoexcited electron-hole pairs limits its photocatalytic activity. Attapulgite (ATP) is an excellent candidate for load type catalyst due to its larger specific surface area. As a new type of carbon-based nanomaterials, carbon dots (CDs) have important application prospects in catalysis and other fields. Herein, Z-scheme CDs/Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 /ATP composite photocatalyst loaded with varied proportions of CDs was synthesized by dynamic adsorption method, which demonstrated excellent photocatalytic degradation performance by lowering the recombination rate of photoexcited electron-hole pairs. Ciprofloxacin degradation efficiency by 3 wt% CDs/Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 /ATP can reach up to 90% within 120 min under simulated sunlight, in addition, the 3 wt% CDs/Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 /ATP composite photocatalyst has good stability. As a result, our research helps to prepare high-efficiency Z-scheme heterojunction and contributes to study the degradation of antibiotics in the aquatic environment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
