Fabrication and Characterization of Co-Doped Fe₂O₃ Spindles for the Enhanced Photo-Fenton Catalytic Degradation of Tetracycline.

ABSTRACT: Co-doped Fe₂O₃ spindles with different Co contents were successfully fabricated by a facile one-step hydrothermal method. The crystalline structure, morphology, optical properties, and chemical state of the as-prepared catalysts before and after photo-Fenton reaction were characterized. Co²⁺ incorporated into the Fe₂O₃ lattice was confirmed by the above characterizations. Also, the photocatalytic and photo-Fenton catalytic performances of the samples were evaluated by the degradation of tetracycline (TC) under visible light irradiation in the absence/presence of H₂O₂. The results demonstrated that Co-doped Fe₂O₃ spindles exhibited better catalytic degradation performance in comparison with si
