Simultaneous visible-light-induced hydrogen production enhancement and antibiotic wastewater degradation using MoS2@ZnxCd1-xS: Solid-solution-assisted photocatalysis

doi:10.1016/S1872-2067(19)63479-0

Abstract

Abstract: In this study, a Zn_xCd_1-xS solid solution was successfully synthesized using a hydrothermal method. MoS₂ serving as a co-catalyst for hydrogen evolution was also prepared through a one-pot hydrothermal method. The structures, morphology, chemical states, and optical properties were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, high-angle annular dark field-scanning transmission electron microscopy, elemental mapping, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and UV-Vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy. Visible-light-driven photocatalytic experiments were conducted to simultaneously achieve hydrogen production and amoxicillin antibiotic wastewater degradation. The results indicated 8%MoS₂/Zn_xCd_1-xS achieves the best photocatalytic performance. The Zn_xCd_1-xS samples illustrated a superior performance to that of CdS, which can be attributed to a thermodynamic improvement. Based on the results of PL and TRPL analyses, the enhancement of the hydrogen production mechanisms can be ascribed to the prolonged separation process of the photocarriers. Furthermore, the degradation results were analyzed using the HPLC method and the possible degradation pathways were determined through the HPLC-MS techniques.

Key words: Photocatalytic, Hydrogen energy, Antibiotic wastewater, Degradation, Simultaneous
