Synthesis and Evaluation Of GCN Enhanced Bimetallic Oxides for Efficient Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue and Diclofenac in Wastewater Treatment

Abstract

In an era where industrial and pharmaceutical waste relentlessly imperils our water sources, urgent intervention becomes imperative. This study takes on this pressing challenge by centering on the synthesis and evaluation of innovative GCN-enhanced bimetallic oxides. These materials demonstrate exceptional prowess in efficiently degrading methylene blue and diclofenac through advanced photocatalysis, crucial for effective waste water treatment. The soaring contamination levels, particularly from industries like leather tanning, textiles, and pharmaceuticals, accentuate the dire necessity for accessible and practical water purification methods. newlineThis study delves into synthesizing diverse metal composites GCN-Mn2O3, CuMoO4, and MnWO4 leveraging mechanochemical and co-precipitation methods. The objective is to develop efficient materials capable of degrading organic pollutants, specifically targeting methylene blue and diclofenac in wastewater. By employing innovative mechanochemical and co-precipitation approaches, this research aims to create tailored metal composites optimized for superior photocatalytic activity. These synthesized materials will be instrumental in addressing the pressing need for advanced wastewater treatment solutions. The emphasis lies in not only synthesizing these composites but also evaluating their efficacy in effectively degrading targeted organic pollutants, contributing to the development of sustainable and potent water purification technologies. newline
