Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has enormous potentials for photocatalysis, yet it only possesses moderate activity because of excitonic effects and sluggish charge transfer. Here, we develop a novel two-dimensional g-C3N4/WO3/MoS2 (CWM) ternary nanocomposite through a facile co-calcination and a hydrothermal process to reach a highly-efficient photocatalyst for organic pollutant elimination under visible light. The WO3 and MoS2 nanoparticles were dispersed on the ultra-thin g-C3N4 nanosheets, in which the electronegative g-C3N4 facilitates formation of oxygen vacancies in WO3. Compared to pure g-C3N4, WO3, and binary composites, CWM exhibited higher photocatalytic activities for various organic pollutants removal under visible light irradiation. For instance, the CWM showed a removal ratio of similar to 99% for RhB after only 10 min irradiation of visible light (lambda > 420 nm) and nearly 100% for ciprofloxacin after 2 h of operation. The results showed that (OH)-O-center dot radicals are the main active species for organic degradation, which suggests a direct Z-scheme heterojunction in CWM that improved spatial separation of charge carries. Furthermore, the collection of electrons is significantly enhanced by MoS2 for oxygen reduction reaction, and the increased oxygen vacancies of WO3 further enhanced the separation of electron-hole pairs; therefore, it led to an effective suppression of charge carriers recombination. The above synergistic effects of ternary photocatalyst result in higher photocatalytic oxidation performance for wastewater treatment compared with pure WO3, g-C3N4 and their binary composites.
