The mesoporous BiEWO6 prepared at pH 1 （BWO-1） displayed the highest adsorption and degradation capacity to TC due to its large surface area and more efficient capacity to separate photogenerated electrons and holes. 97% of TC at 20 mg · L-1 was removed by BWO-1 at 0.5 g-L-1 after 120min irradiation under simulated solar light. Only 31% of the total organic carbon （TOC） was removed after 360 min irradiation although the TC removal reached 100%, suggesting that TC was mainly transformed to intermediate products rather than completely mineralized.
