Efficient utilization of ceramic waste (cyclone dust waste) for enhancing the photocatalytic performance of TiO2 nanoparticles toward Rhodamine B photodegradation

Rational design of a g-C3N4/CdS/MIL-125 (Ti)-derived TiO2 ternary heterojunction as a highly efficient photocatalyst for wastewater treatment under visible-light irradiation

“…20–22 To overcome these hurdles and enhance the photocatalytic performance of TiO 2 , researchers have pursued various strategies including doping TiO 2 with other elements, forming heterojunctions with different semiconductors, and applying surface engineering techniques. 23–26 These methods aim to augment light absorption, improve charge separation, and optimize the utilization of solar energy within TiO 2 -based photocatalytic systems. Notably, CdS emerges as a promising oxidized semiconductor, celebrated for its narrow band gap conducive to visible light absorption, high oxidation potential, and excellent photo-stability, which boost catalytic activity.…”

Anthraquinone and its Derivatives as a Recyclable Photocatalyst for Efficient Photocatalytic Degradation of Rhodamine B in Water under Visible Light

“…Photocatalytic technology has been extensively used for the decomposition of organic pollutants as a sustainable and readily accessible green solution to mitigate energy scarcity and environmental contamination. [26][27][28] For this purpose, many researchers have devoted themselves to the research and development of various photocatalysts for the degradation of RhB, such as ZnO, [29][30] TiO 2 , [31][32][33] SnO 2 [34] and CdS [35] and their modified catalytic materials. [36][37][38][39][40] Recently, the unique photocatalytic properties of ternary metal oxide semiconductors including Ag-AgMoO 3 , Co 3 O 4 -Bi 2 O 3 , BiVO 4 -rGO, PtBi 2 MoO 6 , and Zn 2 SnO 4 -BC have also attracted a lot of attention.…”
