Abstract:Photocatalysis is considered a promising and efficient oxidation technique for wastewater treatment. Developing more environmentally biocompatible, simple, effective, and inexpensive photocatalysts enables photocatalysis technology to be at the forefront of wastewater treatments. As an alternative to harmful chemicals, this work focused on the biosynthesis of a variety of ZnO and doped ZnO based on the extract of the brown alga Cystoseira crinite. X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), en… Show more
