“…Certain bacteria associated with antibiotic resistance colonized abundantly on microplastics in WWTPs, indicating microplastics are vectors and hotspots for ARGs and their transfer (Oberbeckmann et al, 2018). A microcosm study showed that polyvinyl chloride (PVC) microplastics were an essential vector for the pathogenic bacteria and resistance genes in sewage (Zhao et al, 2021). Recent studies showed that the enrichment of ARGs on microplastics in the field and microcosm experiments from WWTP and leachate depends on the polymer types, ARG subtypes, surrounding environment, and incubation time (Martínez-Campos et al, 2020;Su et al, 2021;Zhao et al, 2021).…”

The accumulation of organic dyes in water and their consequent detrimental effect to ecological environment have attracted worldwide extensive attention. It is urgent to develop rapid and efficient method to degrade organic dyes. In this paper, an efficient CdZnS/SnS 2 /SnO 2 heterojunction is successfully prepared by sequential template approach and hydrothermal method. Comparison with CdZnS and SnS 2 /SnO 2 , the heterogeneous structure of CdZnS/SnS 2 /SnO 2 greatly enhances the photocatalytic degradation ability of Rhodamine B (RhB). The apparent reaction rate of CdZnS/SnS 2 /SnO 2 heterostructure is around 12.71 and 16.69 times higher than those of SnS 2 /SnO 2 and CdZnS, respectively, reaching 0.0267 min À 1 . After CdZnS/ SnS 2 /SnO 2 photocatalysis of RhB solution, the BOD/COD ratio increases from 0.168 to 0.725, indicating that the biodegradability is greatly improved. It has been proved that * OH, * O 2À , h + and e À are the main active species involved in the degradation process. In addition, the CdZnS/SnS 2 /SnO 2 exhibits good stability and reusability, with little change in the photocatalytic activity after five cycles. Its superior removal activity is mainly due to the formation of heterojunction improved light harvesting and enhanced separation efficiency. This work provides a new insight for photocatalytic degradation of organic dye wastewater by solar light.

Defect engineering can give birth to novel properties for adsorption and photocatalysis in the control of antibiotics and heavy metal combined pollution with photocatalytic composites. However, the role of defects and the process mechanism are complicated and indefinable. Herein, TiO2/CN/3DG was fabricated and defects were introduced into the tripartite structure with separate O2 plasma treatment for the single component. We find that defect engineering can improve the photocatalytic activity, attributing to the increase of the contribution from h+ and OH. In contrast to TiO2/CN/3DG with a photocatalytic tetracycline removal rate of 75.2%, the removal rate of TC with D‐TiO2/CN/3DG has increased to 88.5%. Moreover, the reactive sites of tetracycline can be increased by adsorbing on the defective composites. The defect construction on TiO2 shows the advantages in tetracycline degradation and Cu2+ adsorption, but also suffers significant inhibition for the tetracycline degradation in a tetracycline/Cu2+ combined system. In contrast, the defect construction on graphene can achieve the cooperative removal of tetracycline and Cu2+. These findings can provide new insights into water treatment strategies with defect engineering.
