Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of advanced oxidation treatment of environmental pollutants, specifically relating to a bismuth-type bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalytic material, its preparation method, and its application in removing tetracycline from water. Background Technology
[0002] Tetracycline (TC) is an environmental pollutant frequently detected in various water sources, even drinking water. This is caused by the overuse of pharmaceuticals and personal care products, as well as the abuse of antibiotics. Due to the proliferation of antibiotics, the rapid increase in antibiotic-resistant bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes has become another major environmental pollution problem affecting human health. Among the many available antibiotics, TC is the second most commonly used antibiotic in the world, widely used for the prevention and control of various human and animal diseases. Furthermore, due to TC's high stability and poor biodegradability, some conventional treatment processes cannot eliminate it. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find an effective method to remove TC from aqueous solutions before it is discharged into the environment.
[0003] Photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, and thermocatalysis have been widely used to address environmental pollution problems. However, it is well known that electrocatalysis has issues with energy consumption and the safety of thermocatalysis. Given these factors, photocatalysis technology is more energy-efficient, highly effective, and safe. In recent years, photocatalysis technology has seen increasingly widespread application. Currently, significant progress has been made in the development of highly efficient photocatalysts. They are being applied to the degradation of environmental pollutants, the artificial synthesis of clean energy, and photoelectrochemical conversion. Among the various photocatalysts used to remove recalcitrant pollutants from the environment, semiconductor photocatalysis features high oxidation intensity, complete mineralization of pollutants, and direct utilization of sunlight.
[0004] Bi₂WO₆ is a simple and novel n-type narrow bandgap semiconductor photocatalyst material with a calcite-like layered structure. Its crystal structure consists of [WO₄] 2- and [Bi2O2] 2+ The structure consists of an orthorhombic crystal phase. Furthermore, Bi₂WO₆ possesses high visible light utilization efficiency, a stable crystal structure, and high quantum and electron transport efficiency, making it a research hotspot in the field of semiconductor photocatalyst materials. Unfortunately, despite these inherent properties, it still suffers from drawbacks such as low photogenerated electron-hole pair separation efficiency and small specific surface area. Therefore, it is urgent to investigate how to improve the photocatalytic performance of Bi₂WO₆. Summary of the Invention

[0041] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are as follows:
[0042] 1. This invention achieves highly efficient degradation of tetracycline in water by mixing a bismuth-based bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalytic material with water containing tetracycline under visible light irradiation. This is a novel advanced oxidation technology. Compared with traditional technologies, the photocatalytic degradation technology used in this invention is green and environmentally friendly. It utilizes solar energy as a reaction condition, is simple to operate, has a wide range of applications, and the photocatalytic products do not cause secondary pollution to the environment. The catalytic process has low energy consumption, and the photocatalytic material is non-toxic, stable, and can be reused repeatedly, improving the efficiency of resource reuse. It has high application and commercial value.
[0043] 2. The heterojunction photocatalytic material used in this invention includes bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride (Bi). 12 O 17 Cl2 and bismuth tungstate (Bi2WO6), a bibismuth-type bismuth oxychloride, are attached to bismuth tungstate. Using bismuth tungstate as the main material, due to its relatively positive valence band position, the resulting photogenerated holes possess strong oxidizing capabilities. Some can directly oxidize and degrade organic pollutants, while others can react with water to generate hydroxyl radicals with even stronger oxidizing power. These hydroxyl radicals, along with the photogenerated holes, also degrade organic pollutants in the water. (The last sentence appears to be incomplete and possibly refers to a different topic.) 12 O 17 Cl2 is used as a modifying material because of its narrow band gap, resulting in a wide visible light absorption range. Due to its negative conduction band position, the photogenerated electrons have strong reducing power. Some of these photogenerated electrons participate in the degradation of organic pollutants in water, while others react with oxygen in the water to generate superoxide radicals, which also participate in the degradation of tetracycline in the water. The combination of these two forms a Z-shaped heterojunction. Compared with traditional heterojunctions, in the photocatalytic process of the Z-shaped heterojunction, under photoexcitation, Bi... 12 O 17 Electron-hole pairs at the valence band positions of Cl2 and Bi2WO6 separate, and the resulting photogenerated electrons transfer to Bi2WO6, respectively. 12 O 17 Electrons from the conduction band of Cl2 and Bi2WO6 are transferred to Bi2WO6 under the influence of an electric potential. 12 O 17 At the valence band of Cl2, photogenerated electrons recombine with photogenerated holes in the valence band, thereby reducing the amount of Bi. 12 O17 The recombination of electrons and holes on Cl2 and Bi2WO6 enhances the photocatalytic performance of the composite material; superoxide radicals generated on the conduction band and hydroxyl radicals generated on the valence band react with pollutants in the water, thereby achieving the purpose of degrading pollutants from the water; through Bi 12 O 17 The interaction between Cl2 and Bi2WO6 can significantly improve the visible light absorption range of bismuth tungstate, thereby enhancing the utilization rate of sunlight by bismuth tungstate. Therefore, the bismuth-type bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst material of this invention is a semiconductor photocatalyst material with a wide visible light absorption range, simple operation, excellent photocatalytic performance, and no secondary pollution. It can achieve efficient degradation of tetracycline under visible light and has good application prospects.
[0044] 3. In this invention, the practical value is evaluated by assessing the reusability of the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst. By continuously treating tetracycline-contaminated water five times under visible light irradiation, the catalytic activity of the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst remained essentially unchanged and at a high level, improving the material's reusability. The material recovery method is also quite convenient; most of the material can be recovered simply by centrifugation, and the material loss is negligible. Therefore, it can be seen that the heterojunction material composed of bismuth tungstate and bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride in this invention has excellent stability, a simple recovery method, and a high reusability rate, making it a semiconductor photocatalyst material with high commercial value.
[0045] 4. In the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst used in this invention, both bismuth tungstate and bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride are bismuth-based semiconductors. Bismuth is known as a "green element," and my country has the world's largest reserves, accounting for 70% of the world's total reserves. Compared to traditional photocatalysts, the precursors used in this invention are widely available and inexpensive, making rational use of my country's existing resources to address the pollution problems my country faces. Therefore, the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst of this invention will not pollute the environment, and the raw materials are inexpensive and widely available, making it a green and environmentally friendly semiconductor photocatalyst.
[0046] 5. This invention uses bismuth tungstate as the main material and bismuth oxychloride as the support material. A simple hydrothermal method can be used to prepare a bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst with high catalytic performance and stability. Compared with other preparation methods, this invention has advantages such as simple operation, high crystallinity, controllable morphology, controllable conditions, low raw material cost, and simple operation, making it suitable for large-scale production and use, and possessing high application value.

If the content of bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride is further increased, the adsorption effect of the composite material will increase, but the overall photocatalytic degradation effect will decrease.
[0075] (2) Taking Example 2 as an example, the degradation efficiency of tetracycline in water by the bismuth-type bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst material in the presence of different coexisting ions was investigated, including the following steps:
[0076] Five portions (10 mg each) of the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst material (A2) prepared in Example 2 were weighed and added to 50 mL and 20 mg / L tetracycline solutions, respectively.

Then, a photocatalytic reaction was carried out under visible light (380-780 nm) for 80 min, with the magnetic stirring speed at 880 r / min, to complete the degradation of tetracycline in the water.
[0077] During the photocatalytic reaction, a sample was taken every 20 minutes. The samples were centrifuged to achieve solid-liquid separation, and the supernatant was collected. The concentration change was measured using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer to obtain the degradation efficiency of tetracycline by the bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst under different coexisting ions. The results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown.
[0078] Figure 4 This image shows the degradation effect of tetracycline on the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst material (A2) in Example 2 of this invention under different coexisting ions. Figure 4 It can be seen that NaCl and Na2SO4 have a strong inhibitory effect on the photocatalytic effect of the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate material.

[0083] Group 4: 10 mg of the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst material (A2) prepared in Example 2 was added to 50 mL of rainwater containing tetracycline at a concentration of 20 mg / L. The mixture was magnetically stirred for 30 min in the dark to allow tetracycline to reach adsorption-desorption equilibrium on the surface of the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst material. Then, a photocatalytic reaction was carried out under visible light with a wavelength of 380-780 nm for 80 min.

[0084] Figure 5 This figure shows the degradation effect of the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst material (A2) in Example 2 of this invention on tetracycline under different water source environments, including ultrapure water, lake water, tap water, and rainwater. In the figure, the vertical axis represents the ratio of the concentration of tetracycline after degradation to its initial concentration at a certain moment. As can be seen from the figure, the removal rates of tetracycline by the bismuth-containing bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst material (A2) prepared in Example 2 of this invention for ultrapure water, lake water, tap water, and rainwater are 76.8%, 82.4%, 75.4%, and 64.4%, respectively. The decrease in the degradation rate of the material in rainwater may be due to the presence of Cl in the rainwater. - The overall degradation level resulting from the capture of free radicals indicates that the bismuth-based bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst of this invention exhibits highly efficient photocatalytic performance for tetracycline in different water source environments, and can effectively degrade tetracycline in different water environments. This also shows that the bismuth-based bismuth oxychloride / bismuth tungstate heterojunction photocatalyst of this invention can be widely used to treat tetracycline in different water source environments, and has good application prospects and practical applicability in the field of photocatalysis.
