Promoted visible-light driven photoreduction of mercuric ions over hydrothermally synthesized platinum oxide-supported zinc tungstate hierarchical nanospheres
This study demonstrates improved photoreduction of mercuric ions (Hg2+) using hydrothermally synthesized hierarchical zinc tungstate (ZnWO4) nanospheres that are subsequently supported with platinum oxide (PtO) nanoparticles. The PtO nanoparticles were integrated into ZnWO4 at concentrations ranging from 0.3 to 1.2 wt% via impregnation. The resulting PtO/ZnWO4 heterojunctions unveiled mesoporous textures with high surface areas (130–141 m2 g−1). Notably, the 0.9 wt% PtO-impregnated ZnWO4 specimen showed improved visible light absorption due bandgap reduction to 2.35 eV, compared to 3.24 eV for pristine ZnWO4. Under optimal conditions, the 0.9 % PtO/ZnWO4 photocatalyst achieved comprehensive photoreduction of 368.30 µM Hg2+ using of 2.4 g L–1 dose, giving an initial reduction rate of 23.57 µM min−1 within 50 min of visible light irradiation. Furthermore, this optimized photocatalyst demonstrated recyclability, retaining 96 % of its initial performance after five cycles. The exceptional activity of PtO/ZnWO4 is ascribed to enhanced visible light harvesting and efficient charge separation, facilitated by the controlled impregnation of PtO.
期刊介绍:
The journal provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies and reviews related to the electronic, electrochemical, ionic, magnetic, optical, and biosensing properties of solid state materials in bulk, thin film and particulate forms. Papers dealing with synthesis, processing, characterization, structure, physical properties and computational aspects of nano-crystalline, crystalline, amorphous and glassy forms of ceramics, semiconductors, layered insertion compounds, low-dimensional compounds and systems, fast-ion conductors, polymers and dielectrics are viewed as suitable for publication. Articles focused on nano-structured aspects of these advanced solid-state materials will also be considered suitable.
