Design and construction of a novel immobilized Z-scheme heterojunction 430-SSF|NiFe2O4/NiO@Er3+:YAlO3 photocatalyst thin film for efficient Congo red degradation with simultaneous hydrogen evolution
Z-scheme structure is an effective construction to improve the photocatalytic activity due to the excellent photo-generated electron-hole pairs separation efficiency. In this paper, the Z-scheme heterojunction NiFe2O4/NiO@Er3+:YAlO3 photocatalyst composite film is immobilized on the 430-Stainless steel foil by using sol-gel spin coating method, which solves the problems that the powder photocatalyst is difficult to recover and reuse and realizes the separation of CO2 and H2. The contribution of immobilized Z-scheme photocatalytic system is investigated. And the up-conversion luminescence mechanism (under excitation of 652.2 nm wavelength light) of Er3+:YAlO3 is also proposed. Additionally, the influences of simulated sunlight irradiation time and Congo Red concentration on the activity of the sample are studied. Under the condition of simulated sunlight irradiation for 180 min, the degradation ratio of Congo Red is 95.78 % and the hydrogen production amount reaches 381.87 μmol/dm2. And the recycling efficiency and stability of the sample are also evaluated. At the fifth cycle experiment, the degradation ratio of Congo red is 85.83 %. A possible mechanism on Congo Red photocatalytic degradation with synchronous pure H2 evolution caused by immobilized Z-scheme 430-SSF|NiFe2O4/NiO@Er3+:YAlO3 photocatalyst composite film is raised. Possibly, this work could make a contribution to the design and synthesis of immobilized photocatalyst with high-activity for concurrently solving the issues of energy shortage and environmental pollution.
期刊介绍:
The objective of the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy is to facilitate the exchange of new ideas, technological advancements, and research findings in the field of Hydrogen Energy among scientists and engineers worldwide. This journal showcases original research, both analytical and experimental, covering various aspects of Hydrogen Energy. These include production, storage, transmission, utilization, enabling technologies, environmental impact, economic considerations, and global perspectives on hydrogen and its carriers such as NH3, CH4, alcohols, etc.
The utilization aspect encompasses various methods such as thermochemical (combustion), photochemical, electrochemical (fuel cells), and nuclear conversion of hydrogen, hydrogen isotopes, and hydrogen carriers into thermal, mechanical, and electrical energies. The applications of these energies can be found in transportation (including aerospace), industrial, commercial, and residential sectors.
