Antibiotic pollution of water resources is a global problem, and the development of new treatments for destroying antibiotics in water is a priority research. We successfully manufactured recyclable magnetic Fe₃O₄/g-C₃N₄ through the electrostatic self-assembly method. Selecting tetracycline (TC) as the target pollutant, using Fe₃O₄/g-C₃N₄ and H₂O₂ developed a heterogeneous optical Fenton system to remove TC under visible light. Fe₃O₄/g-C₃N₄ was systematically characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, FTIR, XPS, DRS, and electrochemical methods. The removal efficiency of 7% Fe₃O₄/g-C₃N₄ at pH = 3, H₂O₂ = 5 mM, and catalyst dosage of 1.0 g/L can reach 99.8%. After magnetic separation, the Fe₃O₄/g-C₃N₄ photocatalyst can be recycled five times with minimal efficiency loss. The excellent degradation performance of the prepared catalyst may be attributed to the proper coupling interface between Fe₃O₄ and g-C₃N₄ which promotes the separation and transfer of photogenerated electrons. Photogenerated electrons can also accelerate the conversion of Fe³⁺ to Fe²⁺, thereby producing more ˙OH. The new Fe₃O₄/g-C₃N₄ can be used as a raw material for advanced oxidation of water contaminated by refractory antibiotics.
