Enhanced electricity generation in photoelectrochemical cell using Sn-doped BiOCl photoanode

Novel BiOBr by compositing low-cost biochar for efficient ciprofloxacin removal: the synergy of adsorption and photocatalysis on the degradation kinetics and mechanism insight

“…The peak at 530.09 eV was attributed to the Bi-O bond, and another peak should be attributed to the C-O bond (Fig. 3c), 28 which was caused by the interaction between carbon and BiOBr. 36 In Fig.…”

“…26 Nevertheless, many researchers have found that CIP absorbed quickly on the surface of the catalyst to achieve rapid degradation by the combination of photocatalysts and carbon materials because added carbon materials also inhibit the recombination of electrons and holes. 27,28 Chang et al synthesized a 3D-3D owerlike bismuth bromide/graphene hydrogel composite material by a two-step hydrothermal method. Further, the composite showed excellent adsorption capacity and photocatalytic efficiency and completely removed potassium butyl xanthate in 85 min.…”
