Ultraviolet light induced photocatalytic behavior of hydrothermally synthesized tetragonal zircon type bismuth vanadate nanoparticles.
The development of efficient and reusable photocatalyst for removal of azo dyes from wastewater remains challenging. Herein, tetragonal zircon-type BiVO4 nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrothermal route and evaluated for UV-driven degradation of Methyl Red (MR). XRD confirmed the tetragonal zircon phase, with an av...
