Green synthesis of plant supported Cu Ag and Cu Ni bimetallic nanoparticles in the reduction of nitrophenols and organic dyes for water treatment

Ag-Modified g-C3N4 Prepared by a One-Step Calcination Method for Enhanced Catalytic Efficiency and Stability

“…The color of dyes affects the transparency of water, aesthetics, and the solubility of gas in water, and a large number of dyes were carcinogenic in nature. 1 , 2 In addition to dyes of organic pollutants, the release of nonbiodegradable aromatic pollutants in water showed an exponential increase. 3 − 6 Among them, nitrophenol was a class of common pollutants in industrial and agricultural areas, which has carcinogenicity, high toxicity, and hard decomposition, and cause tremendous damage to human health.…”

Nanolarvicidal Effect of Green Synthesized Ag-Co Bimetallic Nanoparticles on <i>Culex quinquefasciatus</i> Mosquito

“…Green chemistry is generally the use of methods and techniques to eliminate or reduce the generation or use of feedstock, byproduct, product, reagents, and solvents, etc. that are detrimental to human health or to the environment [6]. Much literature has reported the green plant-mediated synthesis of nanoparticles which is more favored by researchers due to its eco-friendliness over photochemical reduction, heat evaporation, electrochemical reduction, and chemical reduction.…”

The first morphologically controlled synthesis of a nanocomposite of graphene oxide with cobalt tin oxide nanoparticles

“…32,33 Many scientists have reported graphene based composites with oxides such as BiFeO 3 , composites with RGO, 34 CeO 2 /graphene nanocomposites 35 and TiO 2 composites with graphene nanosheets 36 but a composite of tin cobalt oxide nanoparticles with graphene oxide for the application of RB 5 dye degradation and as a fuel additive has not been reported earlier, although some scientists have reported this composite with different applications. 32,33,37,[38][39][40][41][42][43] The present research has lled this gap in the literature as a C 16 Co 4 O 16 Sn nanocomposite with RGO is reported here with the unique applications of the photocatalytic degradation of the RB 5 azo dye and the investigation of the effect of this newly synthesized nanocomposite on the efficiency of kerosene oil. Azo reactive dyes that contain one to four azo groups in their chemical structure represent one main group of textile dyes, usually attached with two radicals, exceptionally one, but usually both, are aromatic groups.…”
