In the following study, the visible-light-active bismuth-based binary nanophotocatalyst Bi۲۴O۳۱Cl۱۰-Bi۳O۴Cl has been synthesized by in situ microwave-combustion method and assessed in the degradation of Tetracycline, and Levofloxacin. Bi۲۴O۳۱Cl۱۰-Bi۳O۴Cl, as a result, illustrates notable activity by removing ۵۰ mg/L Tetracycline-HCl and ۲۵ mg/L Levofloxacin with the percentage of ۶۶.۱۵, and ۵۵.۶after ۱۸۰ min irradiation respectively. The mentioned nanophotocatalyst was characterized by FESEM and XRD analyses. The high performance of the nanophotocatalyst could be due to the formation of defects that may have surged the light accumulation and photocatalytic adsorption-desorption bynanosheet-structured Bi۲۴O۳۱Cl۱۰-Bi۳O۴Cl. Thus, the number of electron-hole pairs will rise and theirrecombination will decline, while the nanosheet-structured morphology could help to improve andpromote the surface adsorption of pollutants molecules.
