TiO2hollow microspheres were synthesized by a facile solvothermal method. The prepared samples were characterized by the XRD, SEM, TEM, BET and UV-vis. The results showed that the TiO2hollow microspheres offered an enhanced photocatalytic activity due to the multiple reflections of the UV light within the inner hollow structure.

Flower-like Bi2WO6 were successfully synthesized using the solvothermal method at different temperatures and characterized by XRD, FE-SEM, and DRS. We also investigated the photocatalytic activity of Bi2WO6 for the decomposition of rhodamine B under visible light irradiation. From XRD and SEM results, the reaction temperature has significant effects on the morphologies of the samples. From DRS results, Bi2WO6 samples displayed the absorption spectrum up to the visible region and then they showed the high photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation, as a comparison with TiO2-P25.

Tungsten trioxide (WO3) is known as a visible light responsive photocatalyst, but its photocatalytic activity is relatively low, as compared to that of anatase titanium dioxide (TiO2). To enhance the activity, high specific surface areas are necessary. In this study, WO3particles with a hierarchical architecture, which was assemblies of spherical particles 20 – 30 nm in diameter, were synthesized by the solvothermal method. The hierarchical WO3particles had high specific surface areas and their photocatalytic activity was found to be 2.5 times higher than that of the commercial WO3.

A novel phthalocyanine-sensitized hollow ZnO spheres as an efficient visiblie-light photocatalyst had been prepared successfully. Firstly, a unique hollow ZnO microsphere had been prepared by a facile solvothermal method followed by calcination. Secondly, zinc-tetracarboxyl-phthalocyanine (Pc) impregnated onto the surface of hollow ZnO microsphere. The obtained photocatalyst Pc/ZnO was characterized by XRD, SEM and EDS. The hollow Pc/ZnO hierarchical nanostructure improved the electron-hole separation more effectively and Pc loaded on the surface of ZnO microsphere to enhance photocatalytic activity under visible light. In our photocatalytic experiments, the hollow Pc/ZnO microsphere showed excellent photocatalytic performance under visible light for the removal of Rhodamine B (RhB). As a result, our work provided an effective and green photocatalyst for water treatment.
