Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the field of photocatalysis, in particular to a Yb 3+ / Er 3+ co-doped full-spectrum response Ti-MOF / BiOBr S-type heterojunction and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous advancement of urbanization and industrialization of human society, the discharge of various types of wastewater continues to increase. The combined pollution of antibiotic-resistant pathogenic microorganisms and persistent organic pollutants such as tetracyclines and synthetic dyes in water bodies has become a serious challenge in the field of water safety. Under this background, heterogeneous photocatalysis technology based on semiconductor photocatalysts is considered as a promising strategy because it can utilize sunlight to achieve the dual functions of deep mineralization of pollutants and inactivation of microorganisms.

[0003] Ti-MOF (IEF-11) has significant potential in the field of photocatalysis due to its three-dimensional pore structure and synergistic light response characteristics of titanium-oxygen cluster-square acid ligand. However, single IEF-11 has defects such as high recombination rate of photo-generated carriers, lack of near-infrared light response, and insufficient surface active sites, which greatly limits its actual efficiency. To solve this technical problem, Chinese Patent Application CN120054648A discloses an IEF-11 / WO 3-x S-type heterojunction catalyst. This catalyst can effectively promote the separation of photo-generated carriers and retain the strong redox ability of the material itself, ultimately achieving full-spectrum response while having certain organic pollutant degradation and microbial inactivation ability. However, this catalyst still has obvious limitations. On the one hand, its microbial inactivation efficiency still has a lot of room for improvement, specifically: the residual rate of bacteria after 30 mg IEF-11 / WO 3-x S-type heterojunction catalyst is still as high as 85% and 68% respectively after being irradiated by near-infrared light source and full-spectrum light source for 15 min, and the inactivation efficiency is obviously insufficient. On the other hand, although this catalyst exhibits excellent degradation ability for easily degradable antibiotics such as tetracyclines, its degradation ability for quinolone antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin is poor. This type of quinolone antibiotic has a relatively higher chemical bond energy and is not easy to be activated by the catalyst due to the presence of a stable quinoline ring conjugated system and a strong electron-withdrawing group in its molecular structure. The residue of this type of difficult-to-degrade antibiotic will directly give rise to antibiotic-resistant bacteria, harm aquatic biological communities, and lead to the difficulty of the catalyst to meet the needs of actual water treatment scenarios.

[0004] Therefore, developing a catalyst that has full-spectrum response, high-efficiency degradation of quinolone antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin, and inactivation of microorganisms has become a key requirement for solving the current problem of combined pollution in water bodies. SUMMARY

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defects and shortcomings of existing photocatalysts that cannot simultaneously possess full-spectrum response and efficient degradation of quinolone-based recalcitrant antibiotics and inactivation of microorganisms, and to provide an S-type heterojunction composite catalyst.

The S-shaped heterojunction constructed by these two elements promotes photogenerated carrier separation while retaining the strong redox capabilities of the composite system, thereby generating a large number of reactive oxygen species such as hydroxyl radicals and superoxide radicals.
