In this work, a novel dual Z-scheme Bi₂WO₆/g-C₃N₄/black phosphorus quantum dots (Bi₂WO₆/g-C₃N₄/BPQDs) composites were fabricated and utilized towards photocatalytic degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) under visible-light irradiation. Optimizing the content of g-C₃N₄ and BPQDs in Bi₂WO₆/g-C₃N₄/BPQDs composites to a suitable mass ratio can enhance the visible-light harvesting capacity and increase the charge separation efficiency and the transfer rate of excited-state electrons and holes, resulting in much higher photocatalytic activity for BPA degradation (95.6%, at 20 mg/L in 120 min) than that of Bi₂WO₆ (63.7%), g-C₃N₄ (25.0%), BPQDs (8.5%), and Bi₂WO₆/g-C₃N₄ (79.6%), respectively. Radical trapping experiments indicated that photogenerated holes (h⁺) and superoxide radicals (•O₂⁻) played crucial roles in photocatalytic BPA degradation. Further, the possible degradation pathway and photocatalytic mechanism was proposed by analyzing the BPA intermediates. This work also demonstrated that the Bi₂WO₆/g-C₃N₄/BPQDs as effective photocatalysts was stable and have promising potential to remove environmental contaminants from real water samples.
