A heteropoly blue as environmental friendly material: An excellent heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst and flocculent

摘要

The first 3D heteropoly blue Ba2Na4[(SiW4W8O40)-W-V-O-VI]center dot 19H(2)O (1) as heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst and flocculent was hydrothermally synthesized and fully characterized by various methods 1 was an efficient Fenton-like catalyst for degradation of phenol with degradation rate of 92.1% (visible light irradiation), and 89.0% (no light) in 90min, respectively. The degradation efficiency of anionic dye methyl orange was 97.0% in 5 min, when 1 was used as photo-Fenton-like catalyst under visible light. And 1 was a nice flocculent for cationic dyes methylene blue and rhodamine B, the removal rates were both above 95%. Moreover, 1 could degrade methyl orange and flocculate rhodamine B at the same time, but the degradation rate decreased from 100% to 77.5% in 60 min, while the flocculation of RhB in 10 min was not affected.
