Synthesis and Photocatalytic activity of Fe-Cu-NiMoO4 nanoflakes

Bys: Hameed K., Shahul, S, Sivakumar, G, Arivalagan

This book summarizes the synthesis of Fe-Cu-NiMoO4 nanoflakes through the precipitation method. Fe-Cu-NiMoO4 nanoflakes displayed excellent photocatalytic performance and provided a good electron acceptor favoring the transfer of photo-generated electrons from the conduction band to the valence band. When 0.14 g/L of nanoflakes was used the degradation of MB exceeded 98% under visible light irradiation for 180 min with a dye concentration of 10 μM. The kinetics of MB photodegradation on the prepared nanoflakes follows a pseudo-first-order model. The Fe-Cu-NiMoO4 nanoflakes protocol is a simple, efficient, less toxic, low-cost, and suitable photocatalyst for the remediation of organic dyes in wastewater.
