However, according to previous studies, the tetragonal phase is inevitable when the monoclinic bismuth vanadate (m-BiVO<sub>4</sub>) is modified. Therefore, it is necessary to find ways to improve the photoresponse and photocatalytic ability of t-BiVO<sub>4</sub> under visible light. In this study, Yb<sup>3+</sup> and Tm<sup>3+</sup> co-doped BiVO<sub>4</sub> was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method, and its microstructure, morphology and optical properties were characterized and analyzed by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, X-ray diffraction, Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance spectra, photoluminescence, upconversion luminescence and other means. The results show that BiVO<sub>4</sub>:Yb<sup>3+</sup>/Tm<sup>3+</sup> (BVYT) has a high content of tetragonal phase (about 80%), showing the characteristics of t-BiVO<sub>4</sub>. BVYT shows a higher separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers, its transient photocurrent response intensity increased by about 3 times, and the photocatalytic efficiency is significantly improved compare with the undoped m-BiVO<sub>4</sub>. Under simulated sunlight, BVYT completely degraded methylene blue (MB) solution and rhodamine B solution in 45 and 90 min, respectively, and the reaction rate was significantly improved. BVYT also shows excellent photocatalytic ability under visible light, about 35% of MB solution was degraded within 45 min under visible light irradiation (> 420 nm), this is because Yb<sup>3+</sup> effectively promotes the upconversion luminescence of Tm<sup>3+</sup> in response to visible light, and the energy cycle mechanism of Yb-Tm-Tm is proposed. Consequently, BiVO<sub>4</sub> with high content of tetragonal phase has excellent photoactivity, even exceeding m-BiVO<sub>4</sub>. This is a novel discovery in the field of photocatalysis, which provides a broader application prospect for BiVO<sub>4</sub> in photocatalysis.</p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":571,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering","volume":"18 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141772936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, enhancing selectivity remains a critical challenge. This study introduces a novel approach to catalytic pyrolysis, utilizing a combination of MCM-41 and modified gallium-based HZSM-5 catalysts, to achieve exceptional selectivity for aromatic liquid-phase products from linear low-density polyethylene. Firstly, to enhance the probability of dehydroaromatization optimization, the type and proportion of metal active sites within the HZSM-5 catalyst are fine-tuned, which would establish equilibrium with acid sites, resulting in a remarkable 15.72% increase in the selectivity of aromatic hydrocarbons. Secondly, to enhance the accessibility of volatiles to active sites, mesoporous MCM-41 with cracking capabilities is introduced. The doping ratio of MCM-41 is meticulously controlled to facilitate the diffusion of cracked volatiles to the active centers of modified gallium-based HZSM-5, enabling efficient reforming reactions. Experimental findings demonstrate that MCM-41 significantly enhances the dehydroaromatization activity of the modified gallium-based HZSM-5 catalyst. Under the influence of MCM-41:Zr<sub>2</sub>Ga<sub>3</sub>/HZSM-5 = 1:2 catalyst, the selectivity for aromatic hydrocarbons reaches an impressive 93.11%, with a notable 60.01% selectivity for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene.
