Degradation of Dye Pollutants by Immobilized Polyoxometalate with H2O2 under Visible-Light Irradiation

Abstract

A Keggin polyoxometalate (POM, i.e., PW12O40(3-)) and its lacunary derivative are immobilized on an anionic exchange resin through electrostatic interaction at pH 4.6 in an aqueous dispersion. The resin-supported POM thus obtained catalyzes the efficient degradation of cationic dye pollutants in the presence of H2O2 under visible-light irradiation. To evaluate the photocatalytic system, degradation of a rhodamine B (RB) dye was investigated in detail using UV-visible spectroscopy, high performance liquid chromatography, and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry techniques to identify the intermediates and final products. Fluorescence lifetime measurements revealed the electron transfer from the visible-light-excited RB molecules to the POMs. Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements, investigation of the effects of *OH and *OOH scavengers on the photoreaction kinetics, and IR analysis indicated that de-ethylation of RB was due to *OOH radicals, but the decomposition of the conjugated xanthene structure was caused by the peroxo species formed by interaction of H2O2 with the lacunary POM loaded on the resin. A total organic carbon removal of ca. 22% was achieved, and the recycle experiment suggested excellent stability and reusability of the heterogeneous catalyst. On the basis of the experimental results, a photocatalytic mechanism is discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
