The toxic dyeing wastewater containing both carcinogenic Cr(VI) and refractory dyes poses serious threats to ecological safety and human health. Herein, a novel composite photocatalytic material e-LDH/t-BiOCl/BiS with an ultrathin sandwich structure constructed achieves removal rate constants of 0.044 and 0.

The effects of adsorption time, pH and temperature on the adsorption of RhB by spheres were investigated. Remarkably, the modified LDHs/SA/CMC gel spheres achieved adsorption equilibrium after 600 min at 25 °C, and the removal rate of RhB at 60 mg/L reached 91.
