[Display omitted] •PI-g-C3N4 exhibited higher photocatalytic activity than PTCDA and g-C3N4.•PMS largely increased degradation efficiency of BPA by PI-g-C3N4 photocatalyst.•O2−, 1O2, and h+ rather than SO4− were mainly responsible for BPA degradation.•The PI-g-C3N4 photocatalyst exhibited a high sta...
