Abstract
The catalysts with three-dimensional porous (3DP) CeO2, LaFeO3 and SrTiO3 are synthesized by sol-gel method and chemical precipitation method. The resulting multi-component 3DP CeO2/LaFeO3/SrTiO3 composite material featured a high specific surface area (26.08 m2/g), which can provide more surface active sites to improve adsorption capacity and catalytic performance. The photocatalytic, Fenton-like, photo-Fenton-like performance of the catalyst are studied on decolorization of RhB under UV irradiation, respectively. 3DP CeO2/LaFeO3/SrTiO3 exhibits high catalytic performance. Compared with photocatalytic or Fenton-like performance, 3DP CeO2/LaFeO3/SrTiO3 catalyst exhibits higher photo-Fenton-like performance, facilitating efficient decolorization of the rhodamine B. Moreover, the initial reaction rate on decolorization of RhB with 3DP CeO2/LaFeO3/SrTiO3 is 10.55, 5.52, 3.67 and 1.51 times higher than that with SrTiO3, LaFeO3, 3DP CeO2 and 3DP CeO2/LaFeO3, respectively. Meanwhile, 3DP LaFeO3/CeO2/SrTiO3 has a wider pH usage range in the synergistic reaction. Finally, a catalytic mechanism for the decolorization of rhodamine B is proposed. The continuous cycling of Fe3+/Fe2+ and Ce4+/Ce3+ and the production of active substances are achieved under the photo-Fenton-like effect of the catalyst.
