Abstract

Ag3PO4/g-C3N4 heterojunction catalyst was synthetized by in-situ growth method,and under visible light emission,the degradation of medicine macromolecular berberine in wastewater was catalyzed oxidation.The composition and structure of the catalyst were analyzed by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and ultraviolet visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy(UV-vis DRS).The photocatalytic activity of Ag3PO4/g-C3N4 for the degradation of berberine was tested.The results showed that when the doping amount of g-C3N4 was 0.7 g,the photocatalytic degradation activity of Ag3PO4/g-C3N4 for berberine was the best under visible light irradiation.The degradation rate reached 100% after 15 min of visible light reaction.After four repeated experiments,the degradation rate was decreased to 73.2%,which had good light stability.Free radical capture experiments showed that h+ and ·O2 - played major role in the degradation of berberine wastewater.Combined with UV-vis DRS analysis,Ag3PO4/g-C3N4 followed the Z-type heterojunction mechanism.
