Abstract:Presence of non-biodegradable organic compounds, mainly pesticides in water bodies peril humans as well as aquatic life. Paraquat (PQ) is one such widely used Class II herbicide associated with Parkinson’s disease. Herein, pristine TiO2 (PT), as well as metal (Fe-PT, Ni-PT) and nonmetal (C-PT, S-PT), modified TiO2 was synthesized using hydrothermal treatment for mineralization and degradation of PQ. The crystallite size from XRD exhibited the prepared catalysts to be nanomaterials while FESEM confirmed the nan… Show more
