The efficiency of photocatalytic pollutant removal largely depends on the ability of the photocatalytic system to produce hydroxyl radicals (^·OH). However, the capability of photocatalyst to produce ^·OH is not strong at present. Advancing the capacity of photocatalytic system to produce ^·OH has always been a tough problem and challenge in the field of environmental science. In this research, it was found that introducing nitric oxide (NO) into the graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) photocatalytic system could memorably enhance the ability of producing ^·OH group. This study provides a new idea for improving the capacity of photocatalytic ^·OH production.
