The BPA into wastewater has posed a threat to environment and human health. Hence, we aimed to eliminate BPA in a short time and with a rapid degradation rate from food wastewater. Herein, the effects of different alkaline-earth oxide doped with Bi 2 O 3 nanoparticles on the photocatalytic degradation of bisphenol A were investigated. SrO-2 O 3 , CaO-Bi 2 O 3 and MgO-Bi 2 O 3 binary oxides were prepared by wet-impregnation method. The structural and optical features of catalysts were clarified BET, XRD, DRS, FT-IR, PL and SEM techniques. The photocatalytic activities of catalyts were compared for different light sources. Considering that the characterization analysis and experimental results, the highly improved photocatalytic activity was mainly attributed to the effective structure of the SrO-Bi 2 O 3 binary oxide and the strong alkali properties in the nanocomposite. Obviously, 5wt% SrO-Bi 2 O 3 photocatalyst showed more excellent degradation performance and highest degradation reaction rate (0.21 mg l -1 min -1 ) within 30 min. It was observed that the photocatalytic activity improved by the additive of alkaline oxide on Bi 2 O 3 .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
