A method for visible-light
catalytic degradation of trace
organophosphorus pesticides in aquatic environments involves first preparing functionalized
nitrogen carbide materials via high-temperature
pyrolysis. Then,
zirconium-based MOFs are grown in situ on the surface of the functionalized
nitrogen carbide materials, and a highly efficient heterogeneous composite photocatalyst is designed and synthesized. Finally, the trace
organophosphorus pesticides in the
aquatic environment are rapidly and stably degraded under visible light. The advantages of this invention are: the process is reasonable and easy to implement; the
zirconium-based MOFs-modified functionalized
nitrogen carbide heterogeneous composite photocatalyst prepared by this method exhibits good visible-light responsiveness and stability for organophosphorus
pesticide degradation, achieving efficient adsorption and rapid
mass transfer of
organophosphorus pesticides; this degradation technology possesses high adsorption capacity, multiple catalytic activities, and strong practicality, greatly facilitating the visible-light degradation of trace organophosphorus pesticides, improving the efficiency of heterogeneous composite photocatalysts, and broadening the application range of functionalized nitrogen carbide materials and
zirconium-based MOFs.
