Bismuth ferrite thin film as an efficient electrode for photocatalytic degradation of Methylene blue dye

Piezo-Enhanced Photocatalytic Performance of Bismuth Ferrite-Based Thin Film for Organic Pollutants Degradation

“…Other factors, such as the efficient separation and transfer of photogenerated charge carriers to the surface of the photocatalyst, also significantly influence the efficiency of the light-harvesting [56]. The BFCO film exhibited superior photocatalytic activity compared to [57], where a 25% degradation of MB was reported for BFO thin films synthesized via the spray pyrolysis method using a 4 mM precursor concentration after 10 h of visible light exposure. Additionally, pure BFO nanoparticles achieved a decomposition rate of 40% for Congo red molecules within 2 h [30] and 19% degradation of methyl violet within 3 h [27].…”

Green synthesis, characterization, and photocatalytic activity of cobalt chromite spinel nanoparticles

“…Also, global climate change, population growth, reduce water reserves, enhance industrial and agricultural activity are the biggest concern globally [1, 2]. Furthermore, the frequently addition of inorganic and organics pollutants from diverse sources such as chemical spills, industrial evacuation, and agricultural wastewater poses significant threats to the available natural water source and is main hazardous to the ecosystem [3,4]. The crisis conditions about industrial pollutants are that they are consist of various dyes with high chemically stable and difficult decomposition so the elimination of synthetic dyes from wastewaters is a serious environmental task that has to be deal with scientifically.…”
