ABSTRACT
A novel Bi2WO6-g-C3N4/polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) composite ultrafiltration (UF) membrane (BWO-CN/PVDF) was prepared by microwave hydrothermal and immersion precipitation phase transformation method. The BWO-CN/PVDF-0.10 exhibited an outstanding photocatalytic removal rate of atrazine (ATZ) (97.65 %) under the simulated sunlight and enhanced permeate flux (1356.09 L·m-2·h-1). The multiple optical and electrochemical detection confirmed that combining ultrathin g-C3N4 and Bi2WO6 can increase carrier separation rate and prolong its lifetime. The quenching test revealed that h+ and 1O2 were the prominent reactive species. Additionally, after a 10-cycle photocatalytic process, the BWO-CN/PVDF membrane presented remarkable reusability and durability. And it showed excellent anti-fouling performance by filtering BSA, HA, SA, and Songhua River under simulated solar irradiation. The molecular dynamic (MD) simulation showed that the combination of g-C3N4 and Bi2WO6 can enhance the interaction between BWO-CN and PVDF. This work opens up a new idea for designing and constructing a highly efficient photocatalytic membrane for water treatment.
