Piezo-photocatalysis could coalesce the advantages of mechanical vibration and solar energy perfectly to achieve high-efficiency catalytic activity.Herein,the quintessential piezoelectric material CdS nanowires with different aspect ratios are precisely constructed and applied for piezo-photocatalytic reduction of U(Ⅵ)for the first time.The ultrasonic(60 kHz,100 W)induces piezoelectric potential to generate a 0.57 eV A-1 electric field,which is added to the direction of CdS(010)as a driving force to efficiently separate photogenerated charges.The alliance between piezoelectric effect and photocatalytic activity endows CdS NW-3 with the fastest piezo-photocatalytic rate under ultrasonic vibration and 5 W LED irradiation,and the relevant rate constant(0.042 min-1)is about 12 and 53.8 times than that of LED and ultrasonication.More importantly,93.74%of U(Ⅵ)could be removed from natural uranium mine wastewater.Therefore,this piezo-photocatalysis system that reduces U(Ⅵ)to easily separable(UO2)O2·2H2O(s)provides valuable input for disposal applications of radioactive wastewater and broadens the horizons of nuclear energy utilization toward the advancement of carbon neutrality.
