Facile synthesis of perovskite carbonaceous interface ZnSnO3/Fe/gC3N4 for photocatalytic remediation of persistent organic pollutants

Polymer-enhanced perovskite oxide-based photocatalysts: a review

“…In addition to traditional approaches, scholars are exploring novel methodologies that draw inspiration from the fields of materials science and nanotechnology. Some reported methods to produce PEPOPs include hydrothermal, [67][68][69] solid-state reactions, 70 calcination, 71 wet impregnation-assisted ultrasonic, 72 co-precipitation, 73 and mechanical grinding. 74,75 For example, Wu et al reported LaFeO 3 microspheres and LaFeO 3 /g-C 3 N 4 composites.…”

“…A recent study by Thinley et al presented a novel photocatalyst that was extremely effective at degrading persistent organic pollutants. 73 The photocatalyst was a heterostructure (ZnSnO 3 /Fe/g-C 3 N 4 ) synthesized by a simple ultrasonication technique. The resulting band gap of the catalyst was 2.18 eV, with a high surface area of 180 m 2 g −1 , demonstrating its usability for pollutant degradation.…”

Reviewing Perovskite Oxide-Based Materials for the Effective Treatment of Antibiotic-Polluted Environments: Challenges, Trends, and New Insights

“…Numerous strategies have been used to improve perovskite oxides for environmental applications, for example, producing magnetic composites to enable material separation [103]. In addition, new materials based on perovskite oxide and other components such as polymers, carbonaceous, and clays have been used to enhance performance in wastewater remediation [104]. The production of composites based on perovskite oxides offers several advantages over using oxide alone.…”

“…The photocatalytic activity of the composite was 61% in 120 min. A composite of zinc stannate, iron, and graphitic carbon nitride was tested for the photocatalytic remediation of persistent organic compounds [104]. Zinc stannate perovskite was synthesized via coprecipitation.…”
