Abstract Photocatalysts are mainly divided into two categories: one is that they have good response to sunlight and visible light, such as BiVO4 and Fe2O3; One is that it has its own defects and can not make full use of the energy converted by visible light. In recent years, a class of oxides have attracted much attention because of their good performance of visible light photocatalytic degradation of pollutants. People also have a strong interest in the research of compound oxides in pollutant degradation. In order to further clarify the photocatalytic mechanism of GCB composite samples, different capture agents were added to determine the main active species in the photocatalytic process. Only through the method of modification, the synergistic effect can enhance its photocatalytic activity. 1% g-C3N4/BiVO4(GCB) sample, drhb = 90.4%, the photocatalytic activity did not change significantly after adding IPA. After adding EDTA and VC, the photocatalytic activity decreased, drhb = 32.6% and drhb = 51%. Therefore, the experiments show that h+ and ·O2- are active species of GCB catalytic system, O2 is more important for RHB degradation.

In this study, direct Z-scheme MnWO4/g-C3N4 photocatalyst was fabricated via facile hydrothermal method. Compared with pristine graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and manganous tungstate (MnWO4), the prepared MnWO4/g-C3N4 photocatalyst showed obviously enhanced photocatalytic activity for Rhodamine B (RhB) degradation under visible light irradiation. The MnWO4/g-C3N4 photocatalyst prepared with 10% MnWO4 (MC10%) showed the highest photocatalytic activity among all samples, which is about 2.3 and 12.7 times than that of pristine g-C3N4 and MnWO4, respectively. This enhancement is due to the strong light absorption and efficient electron–hole separation of direct Z-scheme MnWO4/g-C3N4 photocatalyst. Electron spin resonance (ESR) experiments and active species trapping experiments revealed that [Formula: see text]OH and [Formula: see text] are the main active species in the photocatalytic process. This work may be beneficial for designing MnWO4-based Z-scheme photocatalyst for application in environmental remediation.
