Preparation and characterization of ternary composite photocatalyst for degradation of oxytetracycline hydrochloride in seawater under visible light
Oxytetracycline hydrochloride is the most widely used veterinary antibiotic in aquaculture. The presence of large amounts of residual antibiotics in aquaculture wastewater harms the ecological environment. In this study, the ternary composite of Zn0.75Mn0.75Fe1.5O4/ZnFe2O4/ZnO (ZMF-ZF-Z) photocatalyst was prepared by the coprecipitation method for degradation of oxytetracycline hydrochloride in marine aquaculture wastewater. The crystal phase, structure, morphology, elemental composition, element content, and optical properties of photogenerated electron-hole pairs of catalyst were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS, UV-VIS (DRS), PL spectroscopy, and other test methods. The results showed that ZMF-ZF-Z photocatalyst had a larger response range of visible light than pure ZnO, which can absorb more natural light. During the process of the experiment, the photocatalytic effect of Z ZMF-ZF-Z photocatalyst was almost no weakening after 5 times reuse, which means quite good stability of the photocatalyst. Under the visible light irradiation, the degradation rate of oxytetracycline hydrochloride in seawater was 77.11% with ZMF-ZF-Z photocatalyst, which was about 3 times higher than that of pure ZnO, and the photocatalytic activity was significantly improved. This research provides a scientific and effective method for degrading antibiotics in seawater in actual production and life.
