Background
Due to the rapid development of industrial and agricultural production and the continuous improvement of the living standard of people, organic pollutants discharged to the environment are increased day by day, and the water environment pollution is serious day by day. Heretofore, various treatment techniques have been developed to cope with the increasing organic contamination such as adsorption, flocculation, electrochemical methods, chemical reagent oxidation, ozone oxidation, Fenton oxidation, photo-Fenton oxidation, photocatalytic degradation and the like. In a plurality of treatment methods, the photocatalytic degradation can utilize light energy to oxidize and decompose organic pollutants at normal temperature, has strong capability of degrading the organic pollutants, complete degradation, high speed and no secondary pollution, can fully utilize natural light sources particularly in visible light catalytic degradation, and has low treatment cost. The semiconductor mesoporous structure photocatalytic material is beneficial to light reflection and refraction due to the excellent porous structure and the larger specific surface area, and can greatly improve the utilization rate of light; and the large specific surface area can provide enough active sites and places for pollutant molecule adsorption, and promote the high-efficiency mass transfer of pollutants, thereby improving the catalytic degradation effect of pollutants, and becoming a key point and a hotspot for research and development of environmental protection workers. At present, titanium dioxide is the most deeply researched, developed and widely applied photocatalyst, and has the advantages of good chemical stability, strong chemical pollutant resistance, environmental friendliness and the like. But because the energy band gap is higher than 3.2eV, the titanium dioxide powder can be effectively excited to generate electron/hole pairs only under the irradiation of ultraviolet rays (lambda is less than or equal to 387.5nm), and the titanium dioxide powder has the defects of high recombination rate of the electron/hole pairs, difficult separation of the titanium dioxide powder suspended in the solution and the like, thereby greatly limiting the popularization and the application of the titanium dioxide powder. Therefore, the research and development of the photocatalyst which has high light utilization rate, particularly the utilization of visible light, good catalytic degradation effect, low price and no toxicity per se is the key for promoting the application of the photocatalytic degradation technology in the treatment of organic pollutants.
In recent years, bismuth-based semiconductor materials, such as BiFeO3、BiVO4、Bi2WO6、Bi2MoO6And BiOX and the like, because the internal electric field generated by polarization is beneficial to the separation of photo-generated electrons and holes, the bismuth-based compound has higher photocatalytic performance, and because the bismuth-based compound is non-toxic and causes little pollution to the environment, the bismuth-based compound has become the key point of research and development of environmental protection workers. Wherein, bismuth oxycarbonate (Bi)2O2CO3) Is a typical Aurivillius-type oxide, belongs to a tetragonal system, and has unique composition of [ Bi2O2]2+And CO3 2-The inner electric field generated by polarization is beneficial to the separation of photoinduced electrons and holes, thereby improving Bi2O2CO3The photocatalytic performance of (a). However, the band gap value is between 3.2 and 3.5eV, the visible light absorption rate is low, the recombination rate of the photon-generated carrier particles (hole/electron pairs) is high, the quantum efficiency is low, and the popularization and the application of the photon-generated carrier particles are greatly limited. Therefore, appropriate measures must be taken to improve the structure and morphology of the material, reduce the energy band gap thereof, and improve the light absorption rate and light quantum efficiency and the adsorption performance to pollutants, thereby improving the photocatalytic degradation performance to pollutants.
Sepiolite (Sepiolite) is a magnesium-containing porous inosilicate mineral, has a unique nano-structure pore diameter, a large pore volume and a large specific surface area, is strong in adsorption capacity, light in weight and good in chemical stability, and particularly contains a large number of acid-base centers, so that other materials can be formed and grown on the Sepiolite by taking the Sepiolite as a support, and the purpose of regulating and controlling the structure and the morphology of the generated materials is achieved. Therefore, in-situ generation of the photocatalyst Bi in the presence of sepiolite is adopted2O2CO3Thereby preparing bismuth oxycarbonate/sepiolite (Bi)2O2CO3Sepiolite) composite photocatalyst, expected to improve the generated Bi2O2CO3The structure and the shape of the photocatalyst reduce the energy gap band, improve the absorption rate of visible light and the adsorption performance of pollution, and achieve the aim of improving the photocatalytic activityIn (1). So far, Bi has not been existed yet2O2CO3Research and report of a/Sepiolite composite photocatalyst.
