Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of photocatalysis, and more particularly to a method based on CoP-regulated Ti V Photocatalytic systems with O2 / g-C3N4Z heterojunction electron migration pathways, their preparation methods, and applications. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing severity of global energy and environmental problems, photocatalytic CO2 reduction technology has attracted widespread attention due to its ability to convert greenhouse gases into high-value-added chemicals. Meanwhile, the residues of organic pollutants (such as antibiotics) in water bodies also pose a threat to the ecological environment and human health. Therefore, developing a highly efficient photocatalytic system capable of coupling CO2 reduction and organic pollutant degradation is of great significance.
[0003] Z-type heterojunctions have shown great potential in photocatalysis due to their ability to retain strong redox capabilities while achieving effective charge separation. Among them, traditional TiO2 / g-C3N4 Z-type heterojunction materials, with their matched band structure, have been widely studied for CO2 reduction and pollutant degradation. However, their charge transfer efficiency is limited by interfacial contact quality and electron migration pathways, leading to instability. Currently, no systematic research has explored the regulatory role of electron migration pathways in TiO2 / g-C3N4 Z-type heterojunctions. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a method for regulating Ti based on CoP. V The photocatalytic system of O2 / g-C3N4Z heterojunction electron migration pathway, its preparation method and application, can use CoP nanostructure materials with different morphologies as electron migration bridges to optimize the electron transport path in the heterojunction, thereby improving the separation efficiency and catalytic activity of photogenerated carriers.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this invention provides a method based on CoP-regulated Ti V A photocatalytic system with an O2 / g-C3N4Z heterojunction electron migration pathway, characterized in that it includes Ti as a matrix. V O2 / g-C3N4Z type heterojunction material and Ti V CoP nanostructures serving as modulating components on O2 / g-C3N4Z type heterojunction materials, wherein Ti V O2 is TiO2 with Ti defects.
[0006] Furthermore, the morphology of the CoP nanostructure material is selected from any one of nanorods, nanosheets, and hollow spheres. The photocatalytic system can regulate the distribution of active sites and the direction of electron migration by using CoP nanostructure materials with different morphologies.
[0007] Furthermore, the CoP nanostructure material is loaded on the Ti V The surface or heterojunction interface of O2 / g-C3N4Z type heterojunction materials.
[0008] Furthermore, by using g-C3N4 and Ti V O2 and CoP nanostructure materials were prepared using an electrostatic self-assembly method.
[0009] The present invention also provides the above-mentioned method for regulating Ti based on CoP. V A method for preparing a photocatalytic system with an O2 / g-C3N4Z heterojunction electron migration pathway includes the following steps:
[0010] (1) Ti V O2 preparation
[0011] Tetrabutyl titanate was added to a mixed solution of glycerol and ethanol under stirring conditions, followed by heating. After the reaction was complete, the resulting solid product was collected, washed, dried, and finally calcined in air to obtain Ti. V O2;
[0012] (2) Synthesis of CoP nanostructured materials
[0013] First, a solvothermal method was used to prepare a sheet-like precursor, a hollow spherical precursor, or a rod-like precursor of Co. Then, the precursor and NaH2PO2 were placed at the downstream and upstream positions of the same quartz boat, respectively, and calcined in a nitrogen atmosphere to obtain sheet-like, hollow spherical, or rod-like CoP nanostructured materials.
[0014] (3) Electrostatic self-assembly
[0015] g-C3N4, Ti V O2 and CoP were mixed and then ultrasonically treated to obtain CoP-regulated Ti. V Photocatalytic system with O2 / g-C3N4Z heterojunction electron migration pathway.
[0016] Furthermore, the preparation process of the sheet-like precursor is as follows: CoCl2·6H2O and hexamethylenetetramine are dissolved in deionized water and stirred at 60-120℃ for 1 hour. The product is then collected, washed, and dried to obtain the sheet-like precursor.
[0017] Furthermore, the preparation process of the hollow spherical precursor is as follows: Co(NO3)2·6H2O is dispersed in a mixed solvent composed of isopropanol and glycerol, and reacted at 180℃ for 6h. The product is then collected, washed, dried, and redispersed in deionized water, and reacted at 180℃ for another 6h. Finally, the product is collected, washed, and dried to obtain the hollow spherical precursor.
[0018] Furthermore, the preparation process of the rod-shaped precursor is as follows: Co(NO3)2·6H2O and urea are dispersed in deionized water and reacted at 120℃ for 12h. The product is then collected, washed, and dried to obtain the rod-shaped precursor.
[0019] The present invention also provides an application of the above-mentioned photocatalytic system in the coupled reaction of photocatalytic CO2 reduction and organic pollutant oxidation.
[0020] Furthermore, no sacrificial agent is added during the application reaction process.
[0021] The design principle of this invention is as follows:
[0022] Transition metal phosphides (CoPs) possess excellent electrical conductivity, noble metal-like catalytic activity, and good stability, making them suitable as co-catalysts and electron migration bridges. Furthermore, the morphology of CoPs significantly influences their conductivity, active site distribution, and electron migration pathways. CoPs and Ti... V A tight interfacial contact is formed between O2 / g-C3N4, which can regulate the electron migration path and enhance charge separation efficiency.
[0023] Introducing electron migration bridges into Z-type heterojunction systems is an effective strategy. To date, various materials have been widely used as electron bridges, including noble metals (such as platinum, gold, and silver), transition metals (such as cadmium and copper), and non-metallic materials (such as carbon dots, reduced graphene oxide, oxygen vacancies, and multi-walled carbon nanotubes). However, these materials generally suffer from resource scarcity or high cost, limiting their large-scale application. This application selects CoP, a typical representative of TMPs (transition metal phosphides), which possesses low overpotential, high stability, low cost, and excellent conductivity. It can be used as an electron bridge to effectively reduce electron migration resistance at the heterojunction interface and can also serve as a non-noble metal co-catalyst. Therefore, introducing CoP, which also functions as an electron bridge, into the Z-type system is an ideal strategy for constructing efficient Z-type heterojunction structures.
[0024] Currently, no studies have systematically explored the regulatory role of CoP electron bridges with different morphologies on electron migration pathways in Z-type heterojunctions, nor their application in the photocatalytic coupling reaction of CO2 reduction and pollutant oxidation. Based on the unique properties of CoP and the aforementioned improvement strategies, this invention introduces CoP electron migration bridges with different morphologies into Ti... V In the O2 / g-C3N4Z heterojunction system, the effects of different CoP morphologies (e.g., nanosheets, nanorods, hollow spheres) on Ti were investigated. V The regulatory role of electron migration pathways in O2 / g-C3N4Z heterojunctions. This invention provides a new approach for constructing efficient photocatalytic systems using transition metal phosphides (TMPs) to achieve synergistic CO2 reduction and organic pollutant degradation.
[0025] The beneficial effects of this invention are reflected in:
[0026] The photocatalytic system of this invention can reduce CO2 to hydrocarbons such as CO and CH4 under visible light irradiation, and simultaneously oxidize and degrade organic pollutants such as tetracycline and metronidazole, achieving a synergistic effect of pollutant removal and CO2 resource utilization. Furthermore, no sacrificial agent is added to the reaction system, which not only avoids the waste of photogenerated hole energy but also achieves full utilization of photogenerated charge carriers, thereby improving the overall reaction efficiency. It has the following advantages:
[0027] I. CoP, as an electron migration bridge, not only effectively reduces interfacial migration resistance, but also significantly improves charge separation efficiency and interfacial charge transport rate.
[0028] II. By introducing CoP structures with different morphologies, it is possible to achieve the desired effect on Ti. V Precise regulation of electron migration pathways in O2 / g-C3N4Z heterojunctions; CoPs with different morphologies can regulate the distribution of active sites and the direction of electron migration, thereby enhancing catalytic selectivity and reaction efficiency.
[0029] Third, it achieves efficient coupling of CO2 reduction and organic pollutant oxidation, resulting in significant environmental and energy benefits. Attached Figure Description

After 5 h of reaction, the reaction liquid was collected, the catalyst powder was removed by centrifugation, and finally the absorbance of the TC supernatant after the catalytic reaction was measured using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer.
