Abstract

Triazine-containing azo dyes, anionic reactive brilliant red K-2G, reactive brilliant Red X-3B, and reactive yellow KD-3G were degraded in the electrooxidation, photocatalysis and combined electrooxidation and phtocatalysis process at the gamma-Bi2MoO6 film electrode under visible light irradiation. Furthermore, in the combined process, synergetic degradation of the dyes was observed by the analysis of degradation kinetics and total organic carbon variation. The synergetic mechanism was studied using X-ray photoelectron spectra and electrochemical impedance spectra as well as analysis of variation of current vs time in various processes. It is suggested that application of bias potential with a lower value than the redox potential of the targeted dyes efficiently increases the photocatalysis rate of the dyes by prohibiting recombination of electrons and holes. At the bias greater than the redox potential of the dyes, the degradation of the dyes was efficiently improved bythe combined electrooxidation and photocatalysis process. The main active oxygen species involved in the dyes degradation was hydroxyl radicals as confirmed via DMPO spin-trapping electron spin resonance measurements and the effect of radical scavengers. Intermediates mainly including organic aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids were detected.
