	Along with the popularity of environmental protection concepts, the environmental treatment of water pollution attracts widespread attention, among which, the research on Bi-based semiconductor photocatalytic degradation technology has made great progress. However, the development of such bismuth-based composites still remains a challenging task due to difficult recovery and low catalytic efficiency. Herein, a novel CC/<span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">BiPO</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">4</sub><span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">/Bi</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">2</sub><span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">WO</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">6</sub> composite was successfully synthesized through two-step hydrothermal method using activated flexible carbon cloth as a substrate. The results of the photocatalytic degradation experiments showed that the obtained CC/BiPO<sub>4</sub>/Bi<sub>2</sub>WO<sub>6</sub> composites can degrade 92.1% RhB in 60 min under UV-visible light irradiation, which was much higher than that of unloaded <span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">BiPO</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">4</sub> (24.4%) and <span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">BiPO</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">4</sub><span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">/Bi</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">2</sub><span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">WO</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">6</sub> (52.9%), exhibiting a better adsorption-photocatalytic degradation performance than <span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">BiPO</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">4</sub> and <span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">BiPO</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">4</sub><span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">/Bi</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">2</sub><span style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">WO</span><sub style=\"text-align:justify;text-wrap:wrap;\">6</sub>. Photoluminescence spectra indicated that the improved photocatalytic activity was due to the more effective inhibition of photogenerated carrier complexation. Furthermore, the radical capture experiments confirmed that h<sup>+</sup>, ˇ¤OH and O<sub>2</sub><sup style=\"margin-left:-6px;\">-</sup> were the main active substances in the
