Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of photocatalysis technology, and in particular to a photocatalyst based on g-C3N4 surface defects anchoring Ni / Mn Janus diatomic sites, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, photocatalytic CO2 reduction technology has attracted widespread attention due to its potential in mitigating the energy crisis and the greenhouse effect. Meanwhile, antibiotics, as an emerging pollutant, are widely present in the aquatic environment, seriously threatening ecosystems and human health. Therefore, developing multifunctional photocatalysts capable of simultaneously achieving CO2 resource conversion and antibiotic degradation is of great significance.
[0003] g-C3N4, a polymer semiconductor material with visible light responsiveness, is widely used in photocatalysis research due to its good stability and simple preparation. However, its catalytic performance is limited by its high photogenerated carrier recombination rate and limited active sites. Although there are reports that introducing surface defects and anchoring single-atom metals can effectively improve its electronic structure regulation ability and catalytic activity, its functions remain relatively limited. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a photocatalyst based on g-C3N4 surface defect anchoring Ni / Mn Janus diatomic sites that can achieve a highly efficient coupling reaction of CO2 reduction and antibiotic oxidation under visible light, and has the functions of environmental remediation and resource recycling, as well as its preparation method and application.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a photocatalyst based on Ni / Mn Janus diatomic sites anchored by surface defects in g-C3N4, comprising g-C3N4 having surface defects and Ni and Mn loaded on the g-C3N4, wherein the Ni and Mn are anchored at the surface defects of the g-C3N4 and form a Janus structure.
[0006] Furthermore, the defect is a carbon vacancy.
[0007] Furthermore, both Ni and Mn exist in single-atom form.
[0008] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned photocatalyst, characterized by comprising the following steps:
[0009] (1) g-C3N4 was prepared by thermal polycondensation.
[0010] (2) Heat-treating g-C3N4 in an H2 atmosphere to introduce surface defects;
[0011] (3) Ni and Mn were loaded onto g-C3N4 by photodeposition.
[0012] Further, the operation process of step (1) is as follows: melamine and urea are mixed evenly, ground, and then calcined in air at 500-600°C.
[0013] Further, the operation process of step (2) is as follows: after grinding g-C3N4, it is calcined in H2 atmosphere at 500-600℃.
[0014] Further, the operation process of step (3) is as follows: Ni and Mn precursor salts are dispersed in methanol aqueous solution, g-C3N4 is added, mixed evenly, and then photodeposition reaction is carried out under full-arc ultraviolet light irradiation and 6℃. Finally, the product is collected by centrifugation and washing and then dried.
[0015] Further, in step (3), the precursor salt of Ni is NiCl2·6H2O, the precursor salt of Mn is MnCl2, and the mass ratio of g-C3N4 with surface defects to NiCl2·6H2O and MnCl2 is 200:20~100:20~100. This yields photocatalysts with different proportions.
[0016] The present invention also provides an application of the above-mentioned photocatalyst in the photocatalytic CO2 reduction coupled with antibiotic oxidation reaction.
[0017] Furthermore, the antibiotic is one or more of ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, sulfamethoxazole, and levofloxacin hydrochloride.
[0018] The design principle of this invention is as follows:
[0019] The asymmetric structure of Janus (dihedral) metal active sites provides diverse surface environments for catalytic reactions, allowing multiple different chemical reactions to occur simultaneously on a single particle. This not only modulates the kinetics of the support, controls the adsorption of reactants and intermediates, and lowers the activation barrier, but also improves catalytic efficiency and adjusts product selectivity, which is of great significance for refining catalytic theory and designing highly efficient catalysts.
[0020] Surface defects in g-C3N4 materials not only provide numerous coordination unsaturated sites for anchoring metal atoms, but also, under photoinduced conditions, form photoexcited defects. These defects represent a potential candidate for dynamically anchoring metal atoms, capturing atomically dispersed metal atoms and enabling the manipulation of the electronic structure of the active metal center, while also altering the atomic arrangement and electronic structure of the support. Therefore, constructing bifunctional dynamic defects on the surface of g-C3N4 materials can serve as an effective strategy for precisely anchoring and studying Janus metal active sites.
[0021] This invention achieves stable anchoring of Ni and Mn single atoms through surface defect engineering. Specifically, g-C3N4 is pretreated using an H2 atmosphere heat treatment method to create a controllable defect structure on its surface, thereby enhancing the interaction between metal atoms and the g-C3N4 matrix, preventing metal agglomeration, and achieving single-atom-level dispersion. Subsequent experiments using aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy verified that Ni and Mn exist stably in single-atom form on the g-C3N4 surface.
[0022] In this invention, Ni and Mn form a Janus structure, enabling synergistic effects across multiple reaction pathways and improving catalytic efficiency and selectivity. Specifically, Ni and Mn are anchored to defect sites on the surface of g-C3N4, forming diatomic active centers with a Janus structure. This structure effectively promotes electron transfer and synergistic effects between the two metals, thereby significantly enhancing the activity and selectivity of the catalyst in photocatalytic reactions. Subsequent experimental results show that, compared with single Ni or Mn catalysts, the Ni / Mn Janus diatomic catalyst exhibits superior catalytic performance in CO2 reduction and antibiotic oxidation reactions.
[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are reflected in:
[0024] Defects on the g-C3N4 surface possess strong coordination capabilities, enabling them to form stable coordination structures with metal atoms. By controlling the defect density and distribution, selective anchoring of Ni and Mn single atoms can be achieved, forming Janus-structured diatomic sites. In this Janus structure, Ni and Mn are located at different active sites on the g-C3N4 surface, forming a synergistic bimetallic active center. The Mn site is used for antibiotic oxidation, while the Ni site is used for CO2 reduction, thus achieving highly efficient photocatalytic CO2 reduction coupled with antibiotic oxidation. This structure offers the following catalytic advantages:
[0025] Spatially separated active centers: Ni sites mainly participate in CO2 reduction reactions, while Mn sites dominate antibiotic oxidation reactions, achieving spatial separation and functional division of the two reaction pathways.
[0026] Metal-metal synergistic effect: Electron transfer and regulation occur between Ni and Mn through the g-C3N4 matrix, optimizing the adsorption energy of reaction intermediates and improving overall catalytic efficiency.
[0027] Enhanced charge separation capability: The Janus structure facilitates the directional migration of photogenerated electrons and holes, reduces recombination probability, and improves quantum efficiency.
[0028] The coupled reaction mechanism of CO2 reduction and antibiotic oxidation: Under visible light irradiation, g-C3N4 generates electron-hole pairs. Subsequently, electrons migrate to Ni sites and combine with CO2 molecules, generating CO, CH4, and other products through a multi-electron reduction process. Simultaneously, holes migrate to Mn sites and participate in the oxidation of antibiotic molecules, further oxidizing them into smaller molecules, or even mineralizing them into CO2 and H2O. By controlling the electronic structure of the catalyst surface, the distribution of active sites, and reaction conditions, the two reaction pathways can be efficiently synergistically modified.
[0029] This invention's photocatalyst enables highly efficient coupling of CO2 reduction and antibiotic oxidation. Under visible light, it simultaneously achieves efficient CO2 reduction (e.g., to CO or CH4) and the oxidative degradation of antibiotics (e.g., tetracyclines, sulfonamides) in water. By controlling the electronic structure and active site distribution on the catalyst surface, the two reaction pathways are synergistically executed, achieving a "two birds with one stone" catalytic effect. Experimental data show that under simulated sunlight irradiation, the CO2 reduction yield is increased by more than 15 times, and the antibiotic degradation rate can reach over 90%. This provides a new approach to solving the coupling problem of CO2 reduction and water pollution control.
[0030] Furthermore, the photocatalyst preparation process of this invention is simple and highly reproducible, showing promising prospects for industrial application. The preparation method employs conventional steps such as g-C3N4 synthesis, defect introduction, metal precursor loading, and heat treatment. The process flow is simple, highly operable, and suitable for large-scale production. Simultaneously, the catalyst exhibits stable structure and good cycle performance, demonstrating excellent industrial application prospects and making it widely applicable in environmental remediation and energy conversion fields.
