The development of facile and efficient synthetic approaches of carbon quantum dots loaded with mesoporous g-C3N4 (mpg-C3N4/CQDs) is of critical urgency. Here, a facile strategy was developed to synthesize the mpg-C3N4/CQDs by using calcinations of the mixture of CQDs, cyanamide, and silica colloid. The obtained composite still retained a considerable total surface area, which could offer a larger population of adsorption sites; therefore enhance the capacity for the adsorption of fluoroquinolones antibiotics (FQs). Under visible light irradiation, mpg-C3N4/CQDs demonstrated a higher photocatalytic activity for FQs degradation than did bulk g-C3N4 or mpg-C3N4. This enhancement might have been ascribed to the high surface area of the mpg-C3N4, unique up-converted photoluminescence (PL) properties, and the efficient charge separation of the CQDs. The eradication of FQs followed the Langmuir …
