Abstract:This study demonstrated the effectiveness of poly meta-aminophenol (PmAP) as a solid electron mediator in the Zscheme photocatalytic system for organic pollutants (viz. bisphenol-A and reactive dyes) mineralization and also illustrated how PmAP transported the photogenerated electrons from an O 2 -emitting photocatalyst (Ag 3 PO 4 ) to a H 2 -emitting photocatalyst (CoFe 2 O 4 ) enabling enhanced photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation. The PmAP/Ag 3 PO 4 −CoFe 2 O 4 (PAC-10), was prepared by a… Show more
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.
