BiOX (X = Cl, Br,I) photocatalysts were synthesized by a simple coprecipitation method and were characterized by SEM, TEM, HRTEM, XRD, TG, DRS, PL, and ESR techniques. The photocatalytic activity of Hg-0 removal and the effects SO2 and NO were investigated under fluorescent light. The Hg-0 removal performance was in the sequence ofBiOI>BiOBr>BiOCl. Compared with BiOBr, BiOI showed much excellent SO2 resistance on Hg-0 removal. In the BiOBr reaction system, h(+) and center dot O-2(-) could play key roles in Hg-0 removal, while for BiOI photocatalytic system, I-2 might be an important species for higher Hg-0 removal.
