Comparative performance of hematite-based nanopowder and monolithic photocatalysts on Ni/GF substrates for sunlight-driven degradation of organic contaminants
Abstract Water can be severely contaminated by the reckless dumping of industrial effluents, which contain organic pollutants such as pharmaceuticals, phenolic compounds, and dyes, with cascading effects on human health and the ecosystem. Remarkably, photocatalysis is a rapidly expanding method for…
