Novel TiO2/GO/CuFe2O4 nanocomposite: a magnetic, reusable and visible-light-driven photocatalyst for efficient photocatalytic removal of chlorinated pesticides from wastewater

“…7,8 Semiconductor-based photocatalysis has been known as a green, simple, and costeffective technique for the complete degradation of organic contaminants, as well as being efficiently utilized in various other photocatalytic applications, hydrogen production, carbon dioxide reduction and solar cell water splitting. [9][10][11][12] Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) is a much used photocatalyst because it is non-toxic, chemically and photochemically stable, readily available, and easy to synthesize. 13,14 However, TiO 2 has two major demerits: it possesses a wide bandgap energy value of 3.2 eV for pure anatase, which limits its activity under UV irradiation, and it exhibits rapid electron-hole recombination, which decreases its photocatalytic performance.…”
