A novel CdS/BiOI composite has been prepared via a chemical bath deposition method. The physical and chemical properties of as-prepared composites were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, EDS, XPS, UV–vis DRS, and PL. The synthesized CdS/BiOI composites exhibited superior photocatalytic activity in photodegrading of 17α-ethinyl estradiol (EE2) compared to pure CdS and pure BiOI, and the removal rate of EE2 could approach 100% after only 12 min of visible light irradiation using 3:1 CdS/BiOI composite as photocatalyst. The reaction rate constant over 3:1 CdS/BiOI composite was 6.3, 7.1 and 70.9 times higher than that of pure CdS, pure BiOI and P25 respectively. In addition, a Z-scheme charge separation mechanism was proposed on the basis of the experimental results and the theoretical calculation. Moreover, the prepared composite showed good stability and recyclability which are beneficial for its practical application.
