ABSTRACT
The pollution of tetracycline (TC) had attracted more and more attention due to its unprecedented use and potential hazards. The S-scheme BiOI/BiOIO3 p-n heterojunction was successfully fabricated by in-situ solvothermal treatment of BiOIO3, and was used for the removal of TC from aqueous solutions. The results demonstrated that the construction of S-scheme p-n heterojunction could significantly improve the removal of TC by photocatalytic adsorption/degradation synergism. The removal rate of TC was significantly enhanced after solvothermal modification. The three main reasons for the enhanced removal efficiency were as follows first, the light absorption range of the BiOIO3 was enhanced by solvothermal treatment; secondly, the construction of the heterojunction was beneficial to the valid separation and migration of the photo-generated carriers; finally, the adsorption of TC enhanced the speed of TC reaching the semiconductor interface and reacting with active species. Trapping tests were conducted to reveal that â¢O2- and 1O2 are the main reactive species for TC degradation. The nine degradation products were identified by the high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS), and the three reaction pathways were deduced. A possible S-scheme p-n heterojunction photocatalytic mechanism was presented on the basis of band structures and active species capturing experiment.
