摘要：Seeking green, highly efficient and recyclable photocatalysts for emerging pollutants removal is urgent and desirable in water treatment area. In this work, novel and environmental-friendly photocatalyst Fe₃O₄/BiOBr/CQDs decorated by corncob biomass carbon quantum dots (CQDs) was fabricated successfully via photoinduced method for the first time. More CQDs as electrons reservoir were deposited on the (1 1 0) facet of BiOBr by photoinduced strategy compared to common hydrolysis method through morphology observation. Besides, enhanced visible light absorption and photogenerated charge transfer efficiency make Fe₃O₄/BiOBr/CQDs perform best photocatalytic activity towards carbamazepine (CBZ, 10?mg/L) removal, where 99.52% CBZ could be eliminated within 120?min light irradiation. Moreover, ·O₂^–, h⁺ and ·OH dominated the photodegradation process and three detailed degradation pathways depicted the transformation behavior of CBZ, which were mainly attributed to Z-scheme structure construction caused by electronic bridging and up-conversion photoluminescence of biomass CQDs. A series of photoelectrochemical tests verified the existence of CQDs and Fe₃O₄ solved the high charge recombination rate and low electron utilization problems of BiOBr indeed. Combined with the rational utilization of corncob waste biomass, this research indicates green photocatalyst Fe₃O₄/BiOBr/CQDs synthesized by photoinduced method will have wide potential in water pollutant treatment in the future.
