Abstract
The outstanding performance of advanced oxidation processes based on self-generated active species in the decomposition of antibiotics has attracted widespread attention. Herein, a novel heterojunction flower-shaped microsphere Iron-based Hydroxide/Tungstate Antimony Oxide (FSW) composed of nanosheets with synchronous persulfate activation and photocatalytic properties were proposed to achieve efficient degradation of sulfadiazine (SDZ) by enhanced active oxidation species. Constructed FSW/PMS/vis system realized the improved removal of SDZ at pH 2–6, with a degradation efficiency of 96.6 % in just 6 min (electron transfer efficiency, 6.19 × 10–4 A/cm2; kinetic rate, 2-ORR). Investigation of density functional theory demonstrated the superiority of FSW catalysts (Eads = -1.63 eV), indicating that FSW can not only enhance the adsorption of PMS but also activate PMS to generate a large number of free radical ions, realizing rapid carrier movement and effective charge transfer, which highlights the application prospects of the system in eliminating antibiotics in environmental water bodies.
