Three catalysts were prepared with varying amounts of bio-calcium (Bi_(4−x)Ca_xTi₃O₁₂), where (x1 = 0.05, x 2 = 0.1, x3 = 0.15), it was observed that this activation led to an improvement in properties, the most important of which was an increase in the surface area and a reduction in the gap energy, resulting in excellent photocatalytic efficiency, particularly for biocatalysis with x3 = 0.15. The meticulous engineering of these catalysts gives rise to a synergistic effect, which facilitates efficient charge separation. Moreover, the introduction of bio-Ca led to an expansion in surface area, reaching 4.16, 5.42, and 6.03 m²/g for the bio-Ca/BTO1, bio-Ca/BTO2, and bio-Ca/BTO3, thereby augmenting the catalyst's capacity to absorb, stabilize and photodegradation of Rhodamine-B within a 30 min. Physical and chemical analyses were performed: XRD, FTIR, Raman analysis, BET, MEB/EDX. The bio-Ca/BTO3 photocatalyst’s unique structure enhances its performance and activity by stabilizing and degrading Rh-B on its surface, reducing band gaps, and producing electron–hole pairs. This increased vulnerability to photocatalytic reactions allows for a greater diversity of interactions. The ·OH radical was identified as the most active species in the Rh-B degradation mechanism. The biocatalyst demonstrated remarkable efficacy in degrading the Rh-B dye under visible light irradiation. To assess its stability, an additional eleven repeated simple cycles were conducted. This design offers a novel way to produce high-performance photocatalysts with, an environmentally friendly and sustainable approach.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":750,"journal":{"name":"Reaction Kinetics, Mechanisms and Catalysis","volume":"138 1","pages":"393 - 411"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143404203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A comprehensive suite of characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Rietveld refinement, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and UV–vis spectroscopy, was employed to analyze the synthesized materials.

SEM analysis showed variations in microstructure, with the average particle size decreasing as Cr and Cu doping increased, reaching a minimum value of 2.355 μm at x = 0.2. The band gap measurements confirmed the successful incorporation of Cr and Cu into the BFO lattice, resulting in a reduced band gap of 2.04 eV at x = 0.2.

The synthesis follows an environmentally safer, simpler, and cost-effective method. The present work highlights the morphological transition and its impact on the optical and photocatalytic properties of ZnO nanostructures. Results from X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) indicate that ZnO is in a single phase with a hexagonal wurtzite structure in all three samples. Photoluminescence spectra showed a green emission mediated by the presence of defects. The UV–vis absorption spectra revealed a marked blueshift in absorbance for capped zinc oxide nanostructures compared to uncapped ones. Raman spectroscopy was carried out to evaluate the vibrational modes of the molecules. FESEM images showed that the morphology changed from nanorods (ZnO-1) to rounded morphology (ZnO-CTAB) and petal-like structure (ZnO-SDS) upon capping with ionic surfactants. Under solar irradiation, the capped nanostructures ZnO-CTAB and ZnO-SDS have effectively decolorized the methylene blue dye compared to uncapped ones and showed improved efficiency. The presence of oxygen vacancies in the nanostructures was confirmed by the emission bands in photoluminescence (PL) studies and by Raman spectral analysis. The synergistic effect of defects in the sample and the morphological transition played an important role in increasing the photocatalytic degradation of the capped ZnO samples. The photocatalytic reaction obeyed pseudo first-order kinetics and the degradation mechanism was investigated using radical scavengers such as tertiary-butyl alcohol (OH radical scavenger), ammonium oxalate (h+ scavenger), and p-benzoquinone (superoxide radical scavenger) to identify the primary species involved in the photodegradation process. The mechanism of photodegradation and the recyclability of capped ZnO nanostructures were studied.
