The N-TiO2/g-C3N4@diatomite (NTCD) composite has been prepared through a simple impregnation method, using titanium tetrachloride as precursor and urea as nitrogen-carbon source. Then the effects of calcination temperature on structure, surface property and photocatalytic activity of the catalysts were investigated. And XRD, TEM, XPS, FTIR and UV–vis diffuse adsorption spectroscopy were used to characterize the obtained powders. The photocatalytic activity of the NTCD was evaluated through the reduction of aqueous Cr (VI) under visible light irradiation (λ > 400 nm). The results demonstrated that the nano-TiO2 particles ranging from 15 to 30 nm in the crystal of anatase are well deposited on the surface of diatomite in the NTCD-500 which calcined at 500 °C for 2 h. Furthermore, the g-C3N4 with the lay thickness of 0.92 nm was attached to the surface of nano-TiO2. The N-doped TiO2 and g-C3N4 doped catalysts could co-enhance response in the visible light region and reduce band gap of NTCD-500 (Eg = 3.07 eV). And the NTCD-500 sample exhibited nearly 100% removal rate within 5 h for photocatalytic reduction of Cr (VI) which was higher activity than P25, crude TiO2@diatomite and g-C3N4@diatomite.
