Nano-sized nitrogen-doped Ti-W mixed oxides (N-TiO2-x%WO3) were prepared by soft chemical method, and their intrinsic characteristics were investigated using XRD, TEM, N2 adsorption and desorption isotherms, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra and XPS. Experiments on photodegradation of Methylene Blue (MB) under visible light irradiation were carried out to evaluate the photocatalytic abilities of N-TiO2-x%WO3. Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) analysis was also performed to evaluate the mineralization abilities of N-TiO2-x%WO3. It is shown that the N-TiO2-x%WO3 exhibited higher COD removing rates compared with Degussa P25. The color bleaching rates of N-TiO2-x%WO3 were equal to that of Degussa P25. The enhanced photocatalytic activities were probably related to the strong absorption abilities of the N-TiO2-x%WO3.

Tantalum dioxide and nitrogen co-doped titanium dioxide nanopowders, denoted as (Ta2O5, N) co-doped TiO2, were fabricated by a high-energy ball miller using TiO2, Ta2O5 and urea as raw materials. Experiments on the photocatalytic activities of the (Ta2O5, N) co-doped TiO2 were carried out in the form of photodegradation of methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution under visible light irradiation. Enhanced photocatalytic activities were observed for the (Ta2O5, N) co-doped TiO2 than commercial Degussa P25. Besides, physical, chemical and optical properties, including XRD, DRS, and XPS were detected to analyze the origins for the enhanced photocatalytic activities of the prepared samples.

Degussa P25

Nitrogen-doped TiO2 nanoparticles of commercial Degussa P25 have been prepared via a direct impregnation reaction using ammonium hydroxide solution as nitrogen source. The Samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET surface area BJH pore charecterization and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The results demonstrated that the nitrogen-doped TiO2 nanoparticles had a crystallite size 70.8 nm and a specific surface area of 6.4 m2/g with average pore diameter of 23.3 nm consisting mainly of titanium and oxygen. The photocatalyst activity was determined by degradation of phenol in an impinging stream reactor under visible light irradiation (λ> 400 nm). N-TiO2 catalyst exhibited higher photocatalytic activity in comparison with Degussa P25 under visible light irradiation.

Visible-light responsive SrBi4O7 photocatalyst was prepared by a traditional copreparation method. The photocatalyst was characterized by XRD and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra. The as-prepared photocatalysts were used for the photocatalytic degradation of malachite green (MG) under visible light irradiation. Preparation conditions of catalysts, concentration of malachite green, photocatalyst dosage, irradiation time and photocatalytic reaction kinetics have been investigated. Under the optimized reaction conditions, decolourization ratio and COD removal rates of MG were 99.62% and 95.6%, respectively. The results indicate that SrBi4O7 has good photocatalytic activities for the decomposition of MG. And it has the potential higher visible light photocatalytic activity with a band gap of 2.44 eV.

In photocatalysis, the recombination of electron-hole pairs is generally regarded as one of its most serious drawbacks. The synthesis of various composites with heterojunction structures has increasingly shed light on preventing this recombination. In this work, a BiOBr-Bi2WO6photocatalytic heterojunction semiconductor was synthesized by the facile hydrothermal method and applied in the photocatalytic degradation process. It was determined that both reaction time and temperature significantly affected the crystal structure and morphologies of the photocatalysts. BiOBr (50 at%)-Bi2WO6composites were prepared under optimum synthesis conditions (120°C for 6 h) and by theoretically analyzing the DRS results, it was determined that they possessed the suitable band gap (2.61 eV) to be stimulated by visible-light irradiation. The photocatalytic activities of the as-prepared photocatalysts were evaluated by the degradation ofRhodamine B (RhB)under visible-light irradiation. The experimental conditions, including initial concentration, pH, and catalyst dosage, were explored and the photocatalysts in this system were proven stable enough to be reused for several runs. Moreover, the interpreted mechanism of the heterojunction enhancement effect proved that the synthesis of a heterojunction structure provided an effective method to decrease the recombination rate of the electron-hole pairs, thereby improving the photocatalytic activity.
