Abstract

Ag3PO4 is a photocatalytic material with visible light response, which has a broad application prospect in environmental treatment. However, due to its susceptibility to photocorrosion, high cost and secondary pollution in water, it is limited to some extent. Therefore, we combined Ag3PO4 photocatalyst with PU membrane in the way of polymer membrane loading, and obtained Ag3PO4/PU composite photocatalyst for tetracycline removal in water. This method can not only improve the stability of the material, but also reduce the cost of use and reduce secondary pollution.
