dc.description.abstractThe fluoroquinolone antibiotics, as a category of emerging refractory organic pollutants, have triggered intensive attention due to their persistent ecotoxicology for aquatic environments. Herein, a novel Ag/Bi2MoO6/ZnO (Ag/BMO/ZnO) heterojunction was prepared using a two-step microwave-assisted hydrothermal method for photocatalytic degradation of levofloxacin (LFX). The optimal Ag/BMO/ZnO delivers higher photocatalytic degradation efficiency toward LFX reaching 86.4 %, which is 3 times and 7 times higher than those of neat Bi2MoO6 and ZnO, respectively. This can mainly be attributed that the existence of heterojunction between Bi2MoO6 and ZnO promotes the transmission of photogenerated charges (e−/h+). Furthermore, the introduction of Ag nanoparticles serves as an electron accelerator pump, which can also effectively accelerate the transport and separation of the photogenerated e−/h+. Both of these indirectly retard the recombination of e−/h+. The radical capture assays demonstrate that 1O2, radical dotOH, h+ and radical dotO2– are responsible for the the degradation of LFX and the 1O2 is the primary reactive oxygen species (ROS). Moreover, based on the identification of degradation intermediates via the liquid-chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) technique, the possible degradation routes of LFX were plausibly inferred. In conclusion, this work provides a new perspective toward antibiotics removal by developing novel heterojunction photocatalysts anchored with precious nanoparticles.pt_PT
