Efficient photocatalytic degradation of phenol by Ag-doped TiO2 nanocomposite photocatalysts under visible light irradiation in a three-phase fluidized bed reactor

Facile synthesis of nitrogen-defective g-C3N4 for superior photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B

“…10,11 This technology is able to solve the problems of energy shortage and environmental pollution, 12 thus has been received extensive attention in recent years in the eld of organic dyes degradation. In this context, semiconductor photocatalysts, such as titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ), zinc oxide (ZnO), and graphite carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ), 13,14 have been developed as the catalyst materials for photochemical reactions under the action of light. These materials are featured with excellent photoelectric properties and suitable energy band structure, which can convert abundant solar energy, a natural energy source, into valuable chemical resources for photochemical reactions.…”
