摘要

This study presents a novel MgSn(OH)6/4CuS@HC photocatalyst developed via hydrothermal treatment followed by chemical precipitation. MgSn(OH)6/4CuS@HC was applied for wastewater treatment, targeting eight pollutants: Tetracycline, Doxycycline, Ofloxacin, 3-Nitroaniline, 2-Nitrophenol, Methyl red, Congo red, and Methylene blue. The novel photocatalyst was studied using FTIR, EDX, DRS, SEM, and PL techniques. To gain further insight into the reaction mechanism, scavenger experiments were conducted in addition to operational parameters such as pH, dosage, CuS loading on MgSn(OH)6@HC, pollutant initial concentration, selectivity, reusability, water source, and kinetic studies. The performance test highlighted the outstanding photocatalytic activity of templated MgSn(OH)6/4CuS@HC, exhibiting remarkable stability over five cycles. This performance is attributed to the direct Z-scheme mechanism and the hydrochar template, which improve charge separation, extend photocharge lifetime, and reduce the agglomeration of nanosemiconductors, thereby enhancing overall stability. This study offers a new perspective on green photocatalysts for diverse environmental applications.
