摘要
A simplified approach for the fabrication of CuO/TiO2@C is demonstrated. In this study, low cost CuO/ TiO2@C photocatalysts (CSs loading 0.25-2 wt.%) were prepared, characterized and evaluated for gas phase He oxidation. The obtained CuO/TiO2@C photocatalysts were used to remove gaseous elemental mercury under UV light and LED respectively, and the optimum doping of content of CSs was determined. The results showed that the CuOiTiO(2)@C photocatalysts were highly efficient in oxidizing Hg, reaching above 64% when the CSs doping reached 0.5 wt.%. We have proposed that the probable mechanism by which CuOiTiO(2)@C photocatalysts remove gaseous elemental mercury: with CSs doping, CSs can act as sensitizer and transfer electrons to the semiconductors, triggering the formation of very reactive radicals to improve photocatalytic efficiency.
