Functional partition of Fe and Ti co-doped g-C3N4 for photo-Fenton degradation of oxytetracycline: Performance, mechanism, and DFT study

Cui Lai et al.

Summary: In this study, Fe and Ti co-doped graphitic carbon nitride (FTCN) with high catalytic ability was synthesized using a two-step calcination method. The photoelectrochemical results showed that FTCN had a reduced bandgap and promoted photocarrier transfer efficiency, leading to excellent performance in oxytetracycline (OTC) degradation (90% within 10 min). The main reactive oxygen species and intermediates of OTC in the photo-Fenton process were identified. Combining experimental data and density functional theory (DFT) provided a deep understanding of the mechanism. Interestingly, Fe and Ti were found to act as the main activation centers for H2O2 and O2, respectively, while few oxygen-containing metal active sites were involved in the activation process. The synergistic effect of bimetallic doping played a significant role in enhancing the photoFenton catalytic performance. Hopefully, this study can contribute to the development of new approaches for designing highly efficient multifunctional catalysts or dual single-atom catalysts.

Synergic effect among activated carbon/sulphur-assisted graphitic carbon nitride for enhanced photocatalytic activity

Asif Hussain et al.

Summary: In this study, commercially exhausted urea was used to synthesize activated carbon and sulphur-doped graphitic carbon nitride (GCN) layered structures for higher photocatalytic activities. The synthesized material contained a small amount of activated carbon, which did not accumulate with nitrogen to form GCN and result in a higher energy bandgap. However, through sulphur doping, the bandgap was successfully modified and reduced for visible light. The sulphur with activated carbon system along with GCN enhanced the synergetic contribution in degradation, increasing the reaction constant (K) due to the synergic effect. Importantly, the accumulation of sulphur with activated carbon and GCN altered the charge transfer route and enhanced optical absorption and higher photocatalytic activity, making it a novel approach for environmental remediation.

Smaller grain sizes lead to higher permittivity and electric field, while also increasing the speed of polarization, depolarization, and discharge/charge processes. The electric field and the reciprocal of the capacitance linearly increase with inter-electrode distance, indicating a model of dipoles in series.

Summary: The study investigated the influence of different doping locations on the properties of zirconia ceramics, with Fe3+/Fe2+ ions shown to occupy both substitution and interstitial sites simultaneously, significantly increasing tetragonality and local anisotropy of the FeY-TZP polycrystal.
