Sonocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B in presence of CdS
2018
A novel sonocatalyst CdS was prepared by a facile precipitation method, and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Comparative sonocatalytic degradation experiments were carried out in different conditions under ultrasonic irradiation and with rhodamine B (RhB) used as the model substrate. Results indicate that CdS is a highly active sonocatalyst. The efficiency of RhB sonodegradation in aqueous solutions within 4 h is up to 70% after the addition of CdS. Abundant •OH during the RhB sonodegradation was detected, which may be responsible for the high sonodegradation rate over CdS under ultrasonic radiation.
