What is Facile fabrication of novel Fe3O4-SnO2-gC3N4 ternary nanocomposites and their photocatalytic properties towards the degradation of carbofuran about?
Herein, Fe 3 O 4 -SnO 2 nanoheterojunction has been synthesized and successfully encapsulated in gC 3 N 4 matrix using a novel hydrothermal technique. The synthesized material was characterized using sophisticated analytical methods like XRD, TEM, BET, UV-Vis, VSM and XPS to evaluate structural, morphological, optical, magnetic and surface chemical properties. The hybrid nanostructure Fe 3 O 4 -SnO 2 -gC 3 N 4 has been utilized for the LED lightinduced photocatalytic degradation of carbofuran. The catalyst exhibited notable photocatalytic performance under visible light with an efficiency of ~89% and pseudo first order rate constant of 0.015 min -1 . The result of change in variables like catalyst dose, pollutant concentration, pH and contact time on the photodegradation efficiency and degradation kinetics was studied. The incorporation of Fe 3 O 4 improved the magnetic separation of the catalyst after several cycles of operation, thereby improving the practical utility of the catalyst system to tackle organic pollutants.
