Abstract
The aim of this work was to study the catalytic performance of Bi2WO6-Fe3O4/rGO on the rhodamine B degradation using H2O2 activation with visible light. Characteristics of the Bi2WO6-Fe3O4/rGO catalyst were analyzed via various techniques. The results displayed that the optimum conditions (16 mg L−1 pollutant, nanocomposite value 0.8 g L−1, 2.6 mM H2O2, pH 5), the elimination efficiency of rhodamine B 96 % was obtained after 40 min. Moreover, the radical scavenger experiments confirmed that hydroxyl radical (OH•) and superoxide radical (O2∙-) contributed to the pollutant degradation, and OH• has a dominant role. In addition, Bi2WO6-Fe3O4/rGO exhibited the good stability and reusability. This study illustrated that the simultaneous presence of Bi2WO6-Fe3O4/rGO with H2O2 has a high potential for the degradation of organic pollutant.
