Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Activity Studies of ZnO Nanoparticles Synthesized by Thermal Decomposition of Mechanochemically Processed Oxalate Precursor

“…As the available water treatment technologies involving biological, physical and chemical methods such as membrane filtration, coagulation, sedimentation, reverse osmosis, reduction, oxidation, ion‐ exchange, UV treatment, aerobic and anaerobic processing have limitations on large scale implementation involving high operating costs and generating toxic secondary pollutants into the ecosystem, advanced oxidation techniques have been proposed . The heterogeneous semiconductor metal oxides such as TiO 2 , Fe 2 O 3 , ZnO, ZrO 2 ,WO 3 and Nb 2 O 5 as well as their nanoscale particles have found wide utility in waste water treatment owing to their efficient photocatalytic activity in the degradation of a large number of environmental pollutants under UV light irradiation involving photochemical reaction which is known to occur at the surface of metal oxide semiconductor …”

In‐Situ Synthesis of Tetraphenylporphyrin/Tungsten (VI) Oxide/Reduced Graphene Oxide (TPP/WO3/RGO) Nanocomposite for Visible Light Photocatalytic Degradation of Acid Blue 25

“…The increasing number of industries since the 21 st centuries has resulted in a wide range of environmental pollution in different planetary media such as the atmosphere, waters, and soils . The challenge is exacerbated by poor, inappropriate and insufficient effluent treatment at source .…”

“…The increasing number of industries since the 21 st centuries has resulted in a wide range of environmental pollution in different planetary media such as the atmosphere, waters, and soils. [1] The challenge is exacerbated by poor, inappropriate and insufficient effluent treatment at source. [2,3] However, various reports based on different industries such as clothing textiles, pharmaceuticals, quality assurance laboratories, production industries, furniture and numerous others polluting the environment (water and air) with solid wastes, effluents and various synthetic dyes is of global concern.…”
