A new method to dope Fe3+ions only onto the surface of S- or N-doped TiO2is proposed. The photocatalytic activities of Fe3+ions adsorbed on S- or N-doped TiO2photocatalysts for oxidation of 2-propanol are markedly improved compared to those of S- or N-doped TiO2without treatment of Fe3+ions under a wide range of incident light wavelengths, including UV light and visible light. When the amount of Fe3+ions adsorbed on S-doped TiO2particles was 0.90wt.%, photocatalytic activity reached maximum. In the case of N-doped TiO2with Fe3+ions, the optimum amount of Fe3+ions was 0.36wt.%. The photocatalytic activities of Fe3+ions adsorbed on S- or N-doped TiO2photocatalysts decreased gradually when the amount of Fe3+ions was greater than 1.0wt.%. In addition, when S- or N-doped TiO2photocatalysts adsorbed with Fe3+ions was observed after reduction by NaBH4followed by air oxidation, further improvement in their photocatalytic activities were observed. In this case, the optimum amounts of Fe3+adsorbed on the surfaces of S- and N-doped TiO2photocatalysts were 2.81 and 0.88wt.%, respectively. During the treatment, Fe3+ions adsorbed on S- or N-doped TiO2were reduced to generate metal Fe, and Fe was reoxidized again to form Fe3+ions under an aerated condition. After the treatment, the crystal structure of Fe3+ions adsorbed on S-doped TiO2and adsorbtivity of 2-propanol on the photocatalyst were changed.
