Visible-light-driven WO3and#183;0.33H2O/Ag2MoO4 composites have been prepared by using an in-situ growth of Ag2MoO4 nanoparticles on the surfaces of WO3and#183;0.33H2O. The photocatalytic activities of the samples were studied by degradation of rhodamine B and levofloxacin dilute solution. The synergistic photocatalytic mechanism was also analyzed. Experimental results reveal that the as-developed hybrids have higher photocatalytic activity than pure samples. When the theoretical molar ratio of WO3and#183;0.33H2O to Na2MoO4and#183;2H2O is 1:0.15, the as-developed hybrids have the highest photocatalytic degradation efficiency of 99.0% for rhodamine B in 45 min and 40.9% for levofloxacin in 120 min. Furthermore, there are chemical bonds between WO3and#183;0.33H2O and Ag2MoO4. In addition, the super oxide radicals play the leading role during the photocatalytic degradation process of the samples. This work will provide reference for treatment of organic dyes and antibiotics pollution in water with using solar energy.

Magnetic-field-accelerated photocatalytic degradation of the phenol red (PR) as a model organic pollutant was studied using rare-earth elements modified BiFeO3 (Bi1−xRxFeO3 (R = Ce, Tb; x = 0.0, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15); BFO: RE) nanostructures. The nanostructures were prepared via the hydrothermal process and their morphological, structural, functional, optical and magnetic features were investigated in detail. The effect of magnetic fields (MFs) on photocatalysis were examined by applying the different MFs under visible light irradiation. The enhanced photodegradation efficiencies were achieved by increasing the MF up to 0.5T and reduced at 0.7T for the compositions x = 0.10 in both Ce and Tb substituted BFO. Further, mineralization efficiencies of PR, reproducibility of MF-assisted photocatalysis, stability and recyclability of BFO: RE nanostructures were also tested.
