In this work, CdS quantum dots (QDs) were planted on magnetically recyclable porous Fe2O3 (denoted as F450) to obtain CdS QDs/porous Fe2O3 hybrids (denoted as X–CdS/F450, in which X is the immersion times of CdS QDs). Porous Fe2O3 was first obtained by pyrolysis from an iron-containing metal–organic framework by a two-step calcination method. Next, CdS QDs (of average size 3.0 nm) were uniformly and closely attached to the porous F450 via a sequential chemical-bath deposition strategy. As expected, the X–CdS/F450 hybrids serve as high-performance photocatalysts for the degradation of bisphenol A, a typical endocrine-disrupting chemical. Almost ∼100% of the bisphenol A was degraded over 5-CdS/F450 after visible light irradiation for 30 min (λ ≥ 420 nm). In comparison, the degradation efficiency of pure F450 powder is 59.2%. The high performance of 5-CdS/F450 may be ascribable to the fast electron transport of porous F450, the intense visible-light absorption of the CdS QDs and the matched energy levels between CdS and F450. More significantly, through the photocatalytic degradation reaction, the X–CdS/F450 hybrids can easily be recovered magnetically and reused in subsequent cycles, indicating their stability and recyclability.

The one-step synthesis of high-quality graphene derivatives via CVD process has gained considerable importance nowadays for high-performance electronics and sensors. However, the use of harsh chemicals, high temperature, sensitivity, and the problem of separation of graphene from the substrate, motivated the one-step synthesis of graphene from a non-graphitic precursor, bypassing the use of graphite. In this paper, we have reported for the first time, the synthesis of graphene nanosheets from sugarcane bagasse at the normal atmospheric condition in a single step, avoiding the formation of GO. Here, the pyrolysis of sugarcane bagasse was carried out in the temperature range of 250-450o C in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The results suggested that even the low temperature (250–450o C) facilitated the development of graphitic planes via condensation and aromatization of the glucose monomers present in the precursor. The XRD pattern showed 2θ at around 25o in each case, which confirmed the formation of graphene instead of GO. The FESEM, TEM, and EDX analysis proved the formation of few-layer nanosheets of graphene from carbon-rich waste precursors in a single step.
