An in situ microwave-assisted synthesis approach has been developed to prepare N-TiO2/g-C3N4 composites using H2TiO3 as the reactant and NH3 center dot H2O as the N-doping source. In this way, the N-TiO2/g-C3N4 composite catalysts have a porous structure and large surface areas, which increase the contact area of pollutants. Degradation of rhodamine B (Rh B) and methylene blue (MB) were carried out to evaluate the photocatalytic activity of samples under visible light irradiation. N-TiO2/g-C3N4 composite with 40 wt % N-TiO2 exhibits the highest photocatalytic activity and the optimal temperature is 400 degrees C. The increased photocatalytic activity of N-TiO2/g-C3N4 composites can be attributed to the formation of the heterojunction between N-TiO2 and g-C3N4, which suppresses the recombination of photoinduced electron-hole pairs. The tests of radical scavengers confirmed that O-center dot(2)- was the main reactive species during the photocatalytic process.
