As chromium is a common heavy metal contaminant in water, we have prepared N-F-Al tri-doped TiO2 catalyst for Cr(VI) removal under visible light. The sample was prepared via a sol-gel method and was characterized by XRD, BET, UV-vis DRS, XPS and SEM techniques. In the photocatalytic experiments, effects of Al/Ti ratio, F/Ti ratio, calcination temperature and different dopants were investigated. The optimum Al/Ti molar ratio, F/Ti ratio and calcination temperature proved to be 0.01, 0.1 and 500 °C, respectively, which is in accordance with the characterization analysis. Catalysts prepared under this condition showed a high photoactivity for Cr(VI) removal in water.
