Abstract

âº Microwave-assisted in situ growth of RGO-BiVO4 composite was proposed. âº A relatively small particle size with organic-additives free. âº Graphene was formed during the microwave-heating by oxygen capture. âº GB-2 sample exhibits the highest CIP degradation ratio (3 times over pure BiVO4). âº The enhancements of activities result from the effective charge separation.
