The photocatalytic mechanism was proposed through the photoelectrochemical performance test and active free radical test and density functional theory (DFT) calculation, that the photogenerated electrons between BiVO4-g-C3N4 and Bi2O3-g-C3N4 are transferred in a S-scheme path under the built-in electric field effect. This not only improves the separation and transfer efficiency of the photogenerated carriers, but also effectively inhibits its recombination; and a large number of photogenerated electrons gather on the conduction band of g-C3N4, and the holes remain in the valence bands of BiVO4 and Bi2O3, respectively; and maintain the original strong redox ability of each unit catalyst. Therefore, a large amount of active free radicals •OH and •O2- are generated, which helps to improve the photocatalytic formaldehyde degradation activity.

However, faulty measurements of independent variables generate inaccurate data, which affects the reliability of the developed soft sensor.

In the first stage, faulty measurements are reconstructed using an attention-fusion autoencoder (AFAE) model. In the second stage, the reconstructed data are then fused into an attention convolutional neural network (ACNN) to provide real-time predictions of effluent parameter concentrations. In the reconstruction stage, the AFAE model achieved a superior fault reconstruction performance for a malfunctioning dissolved oxygen sensor with R2 value of 0.9909. In the subsequent stage, the ACNN model exhibited superior predictive capabilities for effluent parameter concentrations, reducing residual error by 57.2 % compared to the faulty data scenario. Consequently, the aeration energy saving was improved by 18.4 % with the sustainable environmental discharge of the effluent.

Prior to the applicative part, green synthesized Co3O4 NPs were characterized for evaluating structural, vibrational, morphological, compositional, and optical parameters using established characterizations like X-ray diffraction, FTIR, SEM/TEM, EDX, and UV–vis spectroscopy.

The change in bond length parameters due to the addition of Zn and Ce was also confirmed by FTIR analysis. The morphological variations with the dopants and confirmation of elemental composition were done using SEM-EDS mapping and TEM results. The UV–vis results inferred the absorption regions of synthesized samples with 1.50 eV band gap energy for pure, 1.45 eV for Zn doped, 1.44 eV for Ce doped, and 1.31 eV for co-doped samples. Based on the results, the co-doped Co3O4 NPs exhibited significantly higher photodegradation and antibacterial and antioxidant results.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15759,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering","volume":"13 3","pages":"Article 116241"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143687334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
