Article Description

In this work, Z-scheme Pt-GdCrO 3 -Bi 2 MoO 6 ternary heterojunction (Pt-GCO-BMO) are fabricated and applied for realizing effective photoreduction of CO 2 to solar fuels. The constructed photocatalyst displayed significantly enhanced response to visible light, boosted carrier separation efficiency, improved CO 2 adsorption level, and increased strong reduction capacities. Therefore, the production of CO (15.35 μmol/g/h) and CH 4 (8.49 μmol/g/h), as dominating products, can be increased by 4.7 and 9.1 times as compared to that of pure BMO, respectively. In addition, the CO and CH 4 generation rates of the Pt-GCO-BMO photocatalyst shown little change after five reuse cycles. The Pt-GCO-BMO photocatalyst also displayed a better photocatalytic activity for bisphenol A removal than either GCO or BMO only, achieving 78.43% degradation efficiency under the visible light irradiation. Overall, a promising strategy to design and prepare a high efficient Z-scheme photocatalyst with strong oxidative/reductive bands for solar-driven CO 2 photoreduction and wastewater purification has been demonstrated through the Pt-GCO-BMO heterojunction photocatalyst.
