Aerogel for Highly Efficient Photocatalytic Degradation.

ABSTRACT: Photocatalysis is one of the effective ways to degrade pollutant antibiotics. Agar is used as the adsorption module to provide abundant pore structure. Carbon dots (CDs) are selected as light energy conversion components. Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) is used as the main material of the catalyst. Agar/CDs/g-C₃N₄-functionalized aerogel with a unique 3D pore structure is assembled. The Agar/CDs/g-C₃N₄ aerogel shows the highest photocurrent density, which is 3.7 times that of agar, 2.4 times that of 3-g-C₃N₄ and 1.6 times that of Agar/g-C₃N₄ aerogel. Compared with 3-g-C₃N₄ and Agar/g-C₃N₄ aerogel, which can completely remove AMX after 75
