Abstract:

Aiming to use discarded masks for purifying printing and dyeing wastewater, ZIF-8/Ag/TiO2 heterojunction was prepared based on the chemical co-precipitation and calcination methods using metal organic framework ZIF-8 as the supporting material, making use of the characteristics of ZIF-8 being highly adjustable pore size, large specific surface area, excellent adsorption capability, and high photocatalytic activity. The synthesized ZIF-8/Ag/TiO2 particles were loaded on the surface of discarded mask. The morphology, structure, specific surface area, chemical bonding state, electronic energy band structure, and thermal stability of the resultant particles and mask-based composite were systemically characterized. The properties of adsorption and visible light photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue and Congo Red dyes were investigated. Experimental results indicated that in comparison with the untreated mask, the adsorption and photocatalytic degradation capabilities towards methylene blue by the mask-ZIF-8/Ag/TiO2 composite were improved by 12.9 and 4.8 times respectively with good reusability. ZIF-8/Ag/TiO2 heterojunction exhibited stronger adsorption capacity and visible light photocatalytic activity as compared with ZIF-8 and ZIF-8/TiO2. The band-gap of ZIF-8/Ag/TiO2 was narrowed due to the doping of Ag into ZIF-8/ZnO and the doping of C and N into TiO2. In addition, the hollow-structured ZIF-8/Ag/TiO2 with holes could absorb more visible lights.

Key words: discarded mask, ZIF-8/Ag/TiO2 heterojunction, adsorption, photocatalytic degradation, dye, printing and dyeing wastewater, waste water treatment
