Hydrothermal synthesis of a photocatalyst based on Byrsonima crassifolia and TiO2 for degradation of crystal violet by UV and visible radiation

Interfacial and Electronic Modulation of M-Bridged Heterostructures with L-Tryptophan and Transition Metallic Oxides: Enhancing Corrosion Resistance and Photocatalytic Activity

“…Furthermore, as discussed before, the importance of WO 3 within the structure of MOFs has more dominant effect compared to the morphology of the sample. Table presents a comparison of the catalytic activity of the ZrOF, TiOF, and WOF catalysts for the degradation of CV with other reported catalysts. ,− Jadhav et al reached 99.38% degradation efficiency after 360 min with anatase nanosphere TiO 2 , which closely aligns with the E f value of WOF (99.61%). However, the notable difference lies in the degradation time, with WOF achieving this efficiency in just 120 min, suggesting WOF as an effective catalyst for rapid photocatalytic activity.…”

Recent progress in TiO2–biochar-based photocatalysts for water contaminants treatment: strategies to improve photocatalytic performance

“…Characteristic results displayed that biochar is conducive to reducing the agglomeration of TiO 2 /CoFe 2 O 4 core–shell nanoparticles. Sánchez-Silva et al 115 prepared hydrochar–TiO 2 composite (HC–TiO 2 ) via a hydrothermal process using Byrsonima crassifolia stones (BCS) as biomass materials. Photodegradation experiments showed that HC–TiO 2 can achieve 77% removal efficiency of crystal violet (20 mg L −1 ) within 90 min under UV light.…”

Waste Biomass-Mediated Synthesis of TiO2/P, K-Containing Grapefruit Peel Biochar Composites with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity

“…The lower the degradation of the dye solution after the addition of the capturing agent, the greater the role played by the captured free radical in the reaction system. In this study, we used p-benzoquinone (p-BQ) in excess to capture the superoxide anion radical (•O 2 − ), isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to capture the hydroxyl radical (•OH), and ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid disodium salt (EDTA-2Na) to capture the hole (h + ) [53]. The results of this experiment are depicted in Figure 11a.…”
