(abstract)

Nowadays, tetracycline (TC) contamination of surface water has become a comprehensive environmental problem that threatens the health and survival of animals and humans. It is essential to develop an efficient, and sustainable wastewater treatment strategy. This study introduces a novel Ag/Ag2O/BiPO4/Bi2WO6/g-C3N4 (ABC) scheme photocatalyst for high-efficiency TC removal under visible light. Optimized g-C3N4 doping facilitated the electron transfer and provided more reaction sites for TC removal. It showed high efficiency, stable TC degra dation activity and environmental adaptability. Moreover, the active reaction site on TC was predicted via DFT calculation. In addition, through the analysis of the intermediates identified by LC-MS, the photo-decomposition pathways of TC were proposed. Based on the results of free radical trapping experiments and ESR spectroscopy, the mechanism of TC degradation was suggested. Finally, a toxicity assessment based on the molecular fractals data was carried out. The developed ABC showed higher visible light absorbance, better e-hþ separation, and higher phase purity and crystallinity. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the development of scheme heterojunctions composite for efficient organic pollution degradation.
