Successful studies have demonstrated that citric acid can significantly improve the photocatalytic reduction efficiency of Cr(VI) over semiconductor photocatalysts as a sacrificial donor. Here, we studied the Cr(VI) photoreduction performance of citric acid monohydrate (CAM) without any semiconductor photocatalysts. Water-soluble CAM displays extremely efficient photoreduction activity for Cr(VI), which is attributed to the synergism of H+, C5H7O5COO- and hv. Hence, the role of citric acid in photoreduction of Cr(VI) may be underestimated in the previous studies. This work may open a new perspective for the development of low-cost, high-efficient and green water-soluble materials applied in heavy metal ion wastewater treatment.
