Exploring the Influence of Carbonaceous Material on the Photocatalytic Performance of the Composites Containing Bi-BiOBr and P25 TiO₂ for NO_x Remediation.

ABSTRACT: The Bi-BiOBr-P25 TiO₂ composite material exhibits high and synergistic improvements in the photocatalytic activity for nitrogen oxides (NO_x = NO + NO₂) removal. Herein, the influence of adding carbonaceous material to this composite, namely graphene (G), graphene oxide (GO), carbon nanotubes (CNT), and buckminsterfullerene (F) is explored; all at 1 wt%. Samples are synthesised using a one-pot solvothermal method. The structural and morphological properties, composition, and photocatalytic performance of all samples are examined using scanning electron microscopy, carbon-hydrogen-nitrogen elemental analysis, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectr
