Considering the biocompatibility of natural proteins and the strong photo-redox capability of Z-scheme heterojunctions, we fabricated Z-scheme ZnIn₂S₄/Ag₂MoO₄@Zein (Z ZA) photocatalytic membranes via electrospinning and in-situ precipitation for enrofloxacin (ENR) degradation. Z ZA exhibit a fiber structure wrapped with ZnIn₂S₄/Ag₂MoO₄ heterojunctions. Photocatalytic studies and various characterization results certified that the Z-scheme structure between ZnIn₂S₄ and Ag₂MoO₄ significantly increases the lifetime and separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers, which in turn enhances the photodegradation of ENR. The degradation rate of Z ZA-10 (ZnIn₂S₄/10 wt% Ag₂MoO₄@Zein) with the highest catalytic activity could reach 100% within 120 min compared with other samples. For ENR degradation, •O₂⁻ radicals were certified to be the primary active species by trapping experiments, and several possible conversion pathways of ENR in photocatalytic reactions were proposed. Furthermore, the antibacterial rates of Z ZA-20 (ZnIn₂S₄/20 wt% Ag₂MoO₄@Zein) against B. subtilis, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and E. coli could reach 90.09%, 89.78%, 84.34%, and 95.31%, respectively. Antibacterial evaluations and cytotoxicity assays demonstrated that Z ZA photocatalytic films had desirable antibacterial properties and low cytotoxicity, rendering them safe and effective for use in the treatment of antibiotic wastewater.
