In this study, STS/TNAs and ATS/TNAs hybrid photocatalysts were prepared and characterized, with STS/TNAs showing superior photocatalytic activity for BB41 dye degradation. Optimization of S3TS3/TNAs catalyst resulted in the best photodegradation performance.
In the present study, a TiO2 nanotube (TNAs) supported Sb2S3-TiO2-SiO2 (STS/TNAs), and Ag2S-TiO2-SiO2 (ATS/TNAs) hybrid novel photocatalysts were prepared and characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM-EDX, X-ray mapping and, DRS. EIS was employed, and an equivalent circuit model is proposed. Flat-band potential and free carrier concentration were determined by Mott-Schottky plots. The obtained catalysts were used in the photodegradation of a binary mixture of Basic Blue 41 (BB41) and Basic Red 46 (BR46) dyes. Compared with ATS/TNAs, STS/TNAs photocatalyst showed the highest apparent rate constant for BB41 dye, about two times higher, and BR41 dye more than 1.5 times. EIS results agreed with the photodegradation results, so the STS/TNAs system with higher charge transfer ability than the ATS/TNAs system showed the best photodegradation activity. The optimization effect of the amount of Sb2S3, TiO2, and SiO2 doped on the TNAs on the photocatalytic activity of the STS/TNAs was done using a central composite rotatable design (CCRD) based response surface methodology (RSM). Results have shown catalyst containing 12.2% Sb2S3 and 27.1% SiO2/TNAs (S3TS3/TNAs) the best photodegradation activity was obtained. The GC-Mass analysis was done to detect the degradation intermediates formed during the photo degradation process. (C) 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
