Mechanism of CeVO4/TiO2 Photocatalytic Degradation of VOCs under Visible Light Irradiation: Electrochemical, Photoluminescence and Active Oxygen Species Study

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, CeVO4/TiO2 composite photocatalyst has been characterized by photoelectrochemical and reactive oxygen species trap techniques to reveal the mechanism for photocatalytic degradation of VOCs in gas-phase. Based on the measurement of flatband of the samples and the detection of reactive oxygen species, a visible light-induced photocatalytic degradation mechanism of VOCs on CeVO4/TiO2 is proposed.
