Abstract
A environment-friendly 3D inorganic heteropoly blue (HPB) Ba2Na2 [HPWV4WVI8O40]·26H2O was directly synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by means of ICP, IR, XPS, X-ray single crystal and X-ray powder diffraction. It was an efficient heterogeneous photo-Fenton-like catalyst to degrade anionic dye methyl orange under visible light irradiation. It removed cationic dyes methylene blue in neutral environment and rhodamine B in acidic condition via flocculation. The removal efficiency of methylene blue and rhodamine B by flocculation was more than 95%. Moreover, it could degrade methyl orange and flocculate rhodamine B at the same time. For MO and MO-RhB solutions, the degradation rates of MO in 60â¯min were 85.5% and 49.1%, respectively. Furthermore, the possible pathways for the production of active species in the MO degradation reaction were discussed. This is the first HPB constructed with 4e-reduced phosphotungstate, Ba and Na ions, having the properties of photo-Fenton-like catalyst and flocculant.
