The novel C/Fe–FeVO4 composite photocatalyst were synthesized by using a two-step hydrothermal synthesis method. Through a detailed exploration on the chemical and phisical properties by some spectroscopic and analytical techniques, the as-prepared C/Fe–FeVO4 exhibted a nanosheet and meso porosity structure. Accordingly, we further utilized this C/Fe–FeVO4 composite as a photocatalist for degradating the notorious ciprofloxacin (CIP) under simulated solar light (SSL) irradiation. Due to its outstanding catalytic properties, the C/Fe–FeVO4 exhibited superior photocatalytic activity. The possible photocatalytic mechanism has been discussed.
