A novel Z-scheme Ag2CO3-NG heterojunction photocatalyst by employing N-doped graphene (NG) was successfully synthesized with enhanced photocatalytic activity for microcystin-LR (MC-LR) degradation. Characterization results suggested that doping of N can promote the nucleation and crystallization of Ag2CO3. Photocatalytic tests showed that Ag2CO3-NG with 30 wt.% N-participation (AGON/1–30) showed the best photocatalytic performance under visible-light irradiation, which could remove MC-LR in 7.5 min, superior to Ag2CO3-GO composite. Multiple factors including dosage, pH value, MC-LR concentration, H2O2, and the coexistence of Microcystis aeruginosa were studied to reveal the environmental impact on MC-LR degradation. Results showed that ·OH, ·O2−, as well as ·CO3− were the main ROSs in MC-LR degradation. The excellent reusability and stability of AGON/1–30 were proved through five consecutive cycles of degradation. Therefore, the Z-scheme Ag2CO3-NG heterojunction photocatalyst is a promising technique for MC-LR remediation.

利用N掺杂的石墨烯(NG)成功合成了新型的Z型Ag 2 CO 3 -NG异质结光催化剂,其光催化活性增强了对微囊藻毒素-LR的降解。表征结果表明,掺杂N可以促进Ag 2 CO 3的成核和结晶。光催化测试表明,N参与量为30 wt。%的Ag 2 CO 3 -NG(AGON / 1-30)在可见光照射下表现出最佳的光催化性能,可以在7.5分钟内去除MC-LR,优于Ag 2 CO 3 -GO复合材料。多种因素包括剂量,pH值,MC-LR浓度,H 2 O2,并研究了铜绿微囊藻的共存,以揭示环境对MC-LR降解的影响。结果表明,·OH,·O2 2 - ,以及·CO 3 -为主要ROSS在MC-LR降解。通过连续五个降解周期证明了AGON / 1–30具有出色的可重复使用性和稳定性。因此,Z方案Ag 2 CO 3 -NG异质结光催化剂是一种有前途的MC-LR修复技术。
