In-situ Fe-doped g-C3N4 heterogeneous catalyst via photocatalysis-Fenton reaction with enriched photocatalytic performance for removal of complex wastewater

TL;DR: In this paper, an in-situ Fe-doped g-C3N4 catalyst was synthesized by thermal shrinkage polymerization, which exhibited excellent and recyclable removal performance for refractory contaminants such as: phenol, bisphenol A, 2, 4-dichlorophenol and coking wastewater, which was due to the formation of σ-π bonds via Fe and N element in the triazine ring skeleton of Fe-g-C 3N4.
