The photooxidation of four polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), namely phenanthrene (PHE), anthracene (ANT), acenaphthene (ACE), and benz[a]anthracene (BaA), were investigated. The solid solution GaN:ZnO before and after Pt modification were employed as photocatalysts. The intermediates from photodegradation were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer. Active species in the present photocatalytic systems were monitored by the electron paramagnetic resonance spin-trap technique and hydrogen peroxide test strip. The effects of radicals and hole scavengers on the photocatalytic degradation of PAHs were also evaluated. The experimental results show that GaN:ZnO exhibits excellent activity for the photodegradation of PAHs, and the activity can be obviously improved by loading Pt. The reactivity of PAHs decreases in the order of PHE > BaA > ANT > ACE. On the catalyst of Pt-GaN:ZnO, PHE, BaA, ANT, and ACE can be degraded completely after 1, 3, 6, and 8 h visible light irradiation respectively. The mechanism examination evidences that the degradation of PAHs is induced by the formation of holes and active H species in the present photocatalytic system. The holes interact with PAHs to produce PAHs(+center dot), which are active enough to react with O-2 and active H species. The theoretical calculation results display that the active positions of PAHs without sp(3) orbital hybridization can be predicted by the frontier electron density (f(r)). (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.
