Abstract
Constructing S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts for the degradation of antibiotics has been proved to be very useful. In this work, Bi2WO6/Mn0.2Cd0.8S S-scheme heterojunction was designed by in situ growing spherical Mn0.2Cd0.8S onto flower-like Bi2WO6. The photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline performance of Bi2WO6/Mn0.2Cd0.8S was significantly improved compared with that of pure Bi2WO6 or Mn0.2Cd0.8S due to the high photogenerated charge carrier separation rate and the retention of strong redox capacity. The photocatalytic degradation pathway of TC was deduced using 3D-EEM and LC-MS, and the charge transfer mechanism of the Bi2WO6/Mn0.2Cd0.8S S-scheme heterojunction was verified through free radical quenching experiments, EPR, XPS and DFT calculations. This study offers a valuable approach for designing efficient photocatalysts to remove antibiotics from water.
