photocatalysts

Novel degradable photocatalysts for wastewater treatment

The weakening of the manmade load on the environment has become a global goal of humanity. The accumulation of toxic substances in effl uents can increase the acceleration of pollution of the planet’s watersheds, resulting in biota pollution. To solve this problem, it is necessary to create photocatalysts that cause self-excitation under the ignition of light. Also, important parameters of photocatalysts are simple synthesis and low cost. This article demonstrates a one-step approach to the synthesis of carbon nanostructures (CNS) with photocatalytic activity.
