Novel feathery P/S Co-doped graphitic carbon nitride for highly efficient synergistic photocatalytic H₂O₂ generation and tetracycline degradation.

ABSTRACT: Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) has garnered significant attention in photocatalytic pollutant degradation for its non-toxicity and cost-effectiveness. However, its limited photocatalytic performance has hindered its applications. Addressing this, we successfully synthesized a novel feathery multifunctional catalyst, phosphorus and sulfur co-doped g-C₃N₄ (P_0.3S_0.2-CN), with an enlarged pore network through a hydrothermal method. This catalyst exhibits remarkable photocatalytic performance under visible light, achieving a hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) production rate of 28.6 mg L^-1 h^-1 and an efficiency of 87.3% in degrading tetracycline (TC). Comparative studies demonstrate that P
