Abstract
A novel magnetic recycling ZnO/NiFe2O4/BiOBr 3D nanofibers photo-Fenton system was successfully prepared by parallel electrospinning combining with solvothermal method. ZnO/NiFe2O4 composite nanofibers was prepared via parallel electrospinning, then ZnO/NiFe2O4/BiOBr 3D nanofibers was obtained by solvothermal growth of BiOBr on electrospun ZnO/NiFe2O4 composite nanofibers. The composition, morphologies, structures and photocatalytic properties of ZnO/NiFe2O4/BiOBr 3D nanofibers were systematically tested and analyzed, and some meaningful results were obtained. The prepared ZnO/NiFe2O4/BiOBr 3D nanofibers, combined with H2O2, form a photo-Fenton system that exhibits excellent photocatalytic performance. When 0.05 mL of H2O2 is added to the photo-Fenton system, the degradation rate of organic dye Rhodamine B (RhB) reaches 99.61 % under light exposure for 10 min. Capture experiments and Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) measurements have confirmed that holes (h+) and hydroxyl radicals (·OH) are the primary active species that play a dominant role in the photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB). Furthermore, the ZnO/NiFe2O4/BiOBr 3D nanofibers have demonstrated exceptional photocatalytic degradation efficiency towards RhB, maintaining a degradation rate of over 95 % even after undergoing three recycling experiments. Significantly, this photo-Fenton system also has good magnetic properties, which can be separated from the treatment system under the applied magnetic field, avoiding secondary pollution of the treatment system, improving reuse rate and saving costs. This study provides valuable insights for the purposeful utilization of the photocatalytic materils.
