Key Points

  • Investigate the efficacy of a novel Bi2O4/C3N5 heterostructure in degrading resorcinol under visible light.
  • Developed a type-II heterostructure using Bi2O4 and phase-tuned C3N5.
  • Evaluated photocatalytic activity under visible light.
  • Assessed matrix interferences in wastewater.
  • Conducted phytotoxicity tests to evaluate environmental impact.
  • The heterostructure achieved significant resorcinol degradation under visible light.
  • Matrix interferences reduced photocatalytic efficiency but were characterized.
  • Phytotoxicity tests revealed varying impacts on plant growth.

Abstract

Over the years, resorcinol (RCL) has been used to manufacture various pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs). Its extensive use in treating skin infections has made it ubiquitous in environmental...
