Abstract

The novel Bi₂WO₆ nanomaterials, which consist of nanosheets and nanoparticles, were successfully synthesized by a combination of electrospinning and calcining processes. The Bi₂WO₆ with different morphologies and microstructures had been obtained in the same experimental conditions. The growth mechanism of such special nanostructures was investigated, and citric acid played an important role in the formation of Bi₂WO₆ nanostructures. The Bi₂WO₆ nanomaterials exhibited excellent photocatalytic property in the photodegradation of the pulping and papermaking wastewater under visible light irradiation. Besides, preparation of the photocatalyst using electrospinning was beneficial for separation and recycling. So, the Bi₂WO₆ nanomaterials have a great potential in application for wastewater treatment in the future.
