Abstract:
Exploring noble-metal-free, highly active and durable catalysts is vital to get to grips with the energy and environmental issues. Herein, we first dexterously design and synthesize a class of ternary Nb-6/CZS/g-CN photocatalysts for the removal of hexavalent chromium Cr (VI) and organic dye pollutant (MO) from wastewater under visible-light irradiation. A heterojunction Nb-6-1/CZS/g-CN loaded with 0.01 g K7HNb6O19 showed excellent photocatalytic performance, with the MO photodegradation efficiency of 94% in 1 h and the Cr (VI) (150 mg/l) photoreduction efficiency as high as 91% in 2 hr. The main active species were deemed to be O-2(.-). Additionally, the as-prepared ternary heterojunction exhibits superior hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) rate. A heterojunction Nb-6-4/CZS/g-CN loaded with 0.5 g K7HNb6O19 exhibited the highest H-2 evolution rate as high as 1777.86 mu mol h(-1) g(-1) under visible-light illumination, which is increased to 5.7 and 2.7 times that of bare CZS and biphase heterojunction CZS/g-CN. These findings afford a new class of promising low-cost photocatalyst bodying for its huge potential value in sustainable energy development and wastewater treatment.
