Impure BiFeO3 as a visible light photocatalyst for phenol degradation was synthezied via solid state method. The calcined temperatures of catalysts were studied. The characteristics of the catalysts were determined by XRD, SEM/EDS and BET. The catalysts were mainly composed of rhombohedral distorted perovskite-type BiFeO3 phase with impurity phases (B2Fe4O9, Bi25FeO40 and Bi2O3). Photocatalytic activity of phenol (5 mg/l) was studied in the impure BiFeO3 illuminated with 200 w fluorescence lamps. The catalyst amount and initial pH value of phenol solution on the photocatalytic effiency have been also investigated. In the present experiments, the catalyst calcined at 800°C shows the highest activity. The optimum loading of impure BiFeO3 and pH value were obtained to be 0.5 g/l and 6, respectively.

Using NH4VO3, Bi (NO3)3•5H2O and Co (NO3)2•6H2O as raw materials, Co doped BiVO4 (Co/BiVO4) photocatalysts were successfully prepared by solid state method. And the photo catalytic properties were test in this work. Crystal structures of these samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The Methyl Orange (MO) was simulated as the sewage under the visible light to explorer the influence of the illumination time and the mass of photocatalyst. The visible-light absorption spectrum of BiVO4 was broadening with doping Co. It was found that the Co/BiVO4 had higher photocatalytic activity than pure BiVO4 .The reason of enhanced catalytic effect also had been analyzed and discussed in the article.

Nitrogen-doped TiO2powders have been prepared using technical guanidine hydrochloride, titanyl sulfate, and urea as precursors via a mild hydrothermal method under initial pressure of 3MPa,150∘Cholding for 2h without any postheat treatment for crystallization. The nanocrystalline N-doped TiO2powders were composed of anatase TiO2by XRD. The grain size was estimated as about 10 nm, and the BET specific surface area of the powder was measured as 154.7 m2/g. The UV-visible absorption spectra indicated that the absorption edge of the N-doped TiO2powders had been red shifted into the visible light region. The photocatalytic performance of the synthesized powders was evaluated by degradation of phenol under visible light irradiation. And the effects of the catalyst load and the initial pH value on the photodegradation were also investigated.

In this study, visible-light-driven ZnO microrod-rGO heterojunction composites were successfully synthesized via a facile and scalable hydrothermal process. The prepared photocatalyst heterojunction was examined using different techniques including XRD, SEM, FTIR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and TGA to reveal their crystal phase, morphology, and other optical properties. The photocatalytic performance of the obtained ZnO-rGO composites was measured by the photodegradation of phenol under visible light illumination. The addition of graphene over the catalyst exhibited an enhanced photocatalytic activity for phenol degradation due to its high surface area and decreasing rate of electron-hole separation. Kinetic studies proved that the degradation of phenol process happened by following the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The effective conditions for degradation of phenol using ZnO-rGO composite were 0.2 g L-1catalyst dose, pH -4, and initial concentration 20 ppm of phenol solution. Comparing with ZnO microrods, the heterojunction composite degraded the organic pollutants of phenol solution up to 84.2% of efficiency displaying the highest photocatalytic activity, whereas urchin-like ZnO catalyst exhibited much less photocatalytic activity for phenol degradation under visible light irradiation. This result envisages immense properties, showing a great potential industrial application for the removal of phenolic wastewater.

Degradation of phenol was studied in the presence of Fenton Reagent. The initial concentrations of C2O42, H2O2 , Fe2 + and pH value on the reaction were investigated. The optimum conditions to degrade phenol from water were determined when initial phenol concentration was 500mg/L, the concentration of Na2C2O4, H2O2 and Fe2 + were 0mmol/L, 300mg/L and 60mg/ L respectively, and pH value was 3. Under the optimum conditions, phenol degradation and mineralization rates could reach 80% and 50%, respectively when the degrade time lasted 10 min.Reference to other literature of sodium oxalate to join can effectively improve the utilization of the ultraviolet and visible light,thus enhancing the effect of high concentrations of phenol wastewater removal, but this experiment reflects the high C2O42- will play an inhibitory effect .

Nanometric-sized nitrogen-doped titanium oxide (TiO2-xNy) powders were synthesized by the two-microemulsion technology. The dried precursor precipitate was characterized by differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetric analysis, Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmet-Teller, and x-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS), and the mechanisms for the evolution of TiO2-xNy powders in this process were proposed and discussed in the context of the microstructure. It shows that a higher pH value solution results in obtaining a small size and much more homogeneous TiO2-xNy powder after calcinations. The powder prepared from a solution of pH 10–11 and calcined at 500 °C has a particle size of ∼4–6 nm with a specific surface area of 160 m2/g and exhibits a pure phase of anatase containing ∼5 mol% of N evidenced by XPS. However, the nanometric-sized TiO2-xNy powder shows the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue solution effectively by exposing the powders in aqueous solution under visible light.
