Facile synthesis of magnetic Bi25FeO40/rGO catalyst with efficient photocatalytic performance for phenolic compounds under visible light†
Abstract
To improve the utilization efficiency of the Bi25FeO40 catalyst, Bi25FeO40-reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite photo-catalysts were prepared by a facile hydrothermal method. The photocatalysts afforded fast degradation performance and high photocatalytic efficiency for degradation of phenol and p-chlorophenol under exposure to visible light irradiation.
