Abstract

This study aimed to synthesize Ag•ZnO•Activated carbon (Ag•ZnO•AC ) composite from rice husk for degradation of dyes. The deposition of Ag and ZnO on AC led to decreasing the surface area and pore volume of Ag•ZnO•AC composite. In addition, when Ag and ZnO were dispersed on activated carbon, the Ag•ZnO flakes became denser and tighter, but the particle size of Ag became smaller from 5 to 7 nm. The photocatalytic ability of Ag•ZnO•AC composite was evaluated by degradation of Janus Green B (JGB) and compared with that of AC, ZnO, Ag•ZnO, and ZnO•AC samples. The effects of catalyst dosages, pH values, and initial dye concentrations on photocatalytic degradation were investigated in detail. The Ag•ZnO•AC composite had a high degradation efficiency of 100% in 60 min, showing the reaction rate of 0.120 min-1 and degradation capacity of 17.8 mg/g within 20 min. The photocatalytic performance of the Ag•ZnO•AC composite was also evaluated by cyclic test and the degradation of other persistent dyes such as Methylene Blue, Tartrazine, Congo Red, and organic compounds (Caffeine and Bisphenol A). Based on the experimental results, the possible destruction route of JGB by the as-synthesized Ag•ZnO•AC composite was suggested. Copyright © 2020 by Authors, Published by BCREC Group.

Abstract

In this study, stratified microstructure gold/zinc oxide (Au/ZnO) composites were successfully prepared by the method of dispersing Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) on the surface of the hierarchical flower ZnO via HAuCl4 reduction in the presence of different reducing agents such as sodium citrate (SC), sodium borohydride (SB), sodium hydroxide and ethanol (SE), and Hg lamp 250W. Au-doped samples were named Au/ZnO-SC, Au/ZnO-SB, Au/ZnO-SE, and Au/ZnO-Hg lamp, respectively. Au/ZnO-SC and Au/ZnO-SB revealed the uniform distribution of Au nanoparticles on the ZnO substrate, meanwhile, Au nanoparticles were very densely distributed in Au/ZnO-SE and Au/ZnO-Hg lamp samples. The pure ZnO only showed an absorption peak in the ultraviolet (UV) region, Au/ZnO samples indicated additional absorption peaks in the visible light region (500-600 nm), which were characteristic of the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of Au NPs in composites. Therefore, their bandgap energy was reduced compared to ZnO (3.202 eV), leading to increased photocatalytic efficiency under visible light irradiation. Among the doped samples, Au/ZnO-SC (with Au content as 5 wt%) had the largest surface area (26.23 m2/g) and the highest pore volume (0.263 cm3/g) and average pore width (33.2 nm). As a result, it showed the highest catalytic efficiency through complete degradation of tartrazine (TA) within 30 min with a reaction rate of 0.124 min−1 under Hg lamp 250 irradiation. In addition, both pure ZnO and Au/ZnO nanocomposites exhibited high antimicrobial activity in killing Escherichia coli (E. coli), and their enhancing effect of them was reliant on the weight ratio of Au on ZnO and the concentration of tested samples. These results indicated that Au/ZnO material has prominent potential for applications in water environment treatment. Copyright © 2023 by Authors, Published by BCREC Group.
