Degradation of Methylene Blue Using Biologically Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles

Nowadays plant mediated synthesis of nanoparticles has great interest and achievement due to its eco-benign and low time consuming properties. In this study silver nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by using Morinda tinctoria leaf extract under different pH. The aqueous leaf extract was added to silver nitrate solution; the color of the reaction medium was changed from pale yellow to b...

Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue by Innovative BiVO4/TiO2 Composite Films under Visible Light Irradiation

Bismuth vanadate and titanium dioxide (BiVO4/TiO2) composites, used as visible-light-driven photocatalysts were successfully synthesized with different mole ratios by coupling of a co-precipitation method with a sol-gel method. The phase transitions of the as-prepared BiVO4/TiO2 composites were carried out by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results clearly indicated that the as-synthesized BiVO4/T...

Kinetics of photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue by ZnO-bentonite nanocomposite

The present study reports, the synthesis of ZnO-bentonite nanocomposite by the incorporation of ZnO with bentonite clay. The nanocomposite was characterised by XRD and SEM. ZnO-bentonite was effectively used for removal of Methylene Blue (MB). Removal of MB takes place by photocatalytic degradation and adsorption. Photocatalytic degradation of MB occurs by advanced oxidation process. The factor...
