We report tunable-morphology oriented facile yet scalable route to synthesize 1D (nanorod) and 2D (nanobelt) MoO3 nanostructures at gram scale using conventional as well as sonochemistry assisted sol–gel technique. The structural, morphological and optical properties of the samples can be befittingly altered by varying the synthesis protocol. The resultant orthorhombic MoO3 nanomorphs demonstrated efficient and expeditious photocatalytic degradation of the pollutant dye, Methylene Blue (MB). We have observed that appreciable photocatalytic MB dye-degradation can be accomplished within 30 minutes with high rate constants of 0.0786 min−1 and 0.233 min−1 for rod and belt-like MoO3-nanostructures, respectively. The pilot results indicate that the resultant MoO3 nanomorphs can be potentially used as solar light driven industrial photocatalyst material with their intrinsic photostability.

Double Hydroxide

Layered double hydroxides (abbreviated as LDHs) are one of the nanoordered layered compounds. The importance of layered compound is based on their ability to retain chemical species with electrical charges compatible to those of the layers. In this study we have reported the synthesis of nanosized layered double hydroxide (LDH) by co-precipitation method using two different surfactants as cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and octadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (ODTMA) having different critical micelle concentration (CMC) /chain length and its comparative results on calcined surface modified LDH (CS-LDH). The structure of surface modified layered double hydroxide (CS-LDH) synthesized is unique and has important advantages to the photocatalytic activity. LDH has significant number of application due to their structural, chemical properties etc., these compounds can be used as catalyst, adsorbents, anion exchanger. The photocatalytic activity of prepared surface modified CS-LDH was tested on degradation of the methylene blue (MB) dye in an aqueous solution. The surface characteristics of LDH and CS-LDH were examined using Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV-Visible spectrophotometer for Photocatalytic activity under visible light using MB dye. It was observed that highly exfoliated and basal spacing in CS-LDH-ODTMA which enhanced photocatalytic activity (Approx. 60% degradation) than that of comparison to CS-LDH-CTAB (Approx. 32% degradation).

Double Hydroxide

A MgCr-based layered double hydroxide (LDH) was synthesized by a coprecipitation method, followed by an intercalation process using an oxalic anion. The materials were characterized using X-ray diffraction analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy, and pH pzc measurement. The materials were then applied as adsorbents for removal of methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RhB) from aqueous solution. Pristine Mg/Cr LDH exhibited RhB adsorption capacity of 32.154 mg g⁻1, whereas the use of intercalated Mg/Cr LDH caused an increase in the capacity (139.526 mg g⁻1). Kinetic studies indicated that the dye adsorption using both LDHs followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model; the K2 values of pristine and modified Mg/Cr LDH for RhB and MB were 6.970, 0.001, 0.426, and 2.056 g mg⁻1 min⁻1, respectively. The thermodynamic study identified that the adsorption of both dyes onto the LDHs was a spontaneous process and can be classified as physical adsorption with adsorption energies of <40 kJ/mol. Moreover, the desorption and regeneration experiments indicated the high economic feasibility and reusability of the LDHs. By using HCl as the optimal solvent, the LDHs could desorb as much as 98% of the dye and could be used as adsorbents with high adsorption capacity over three cycles.

Abstract Detection of residual organic and inorganic species in water bodies including drinking water has led to developing strategies for their removal. Here we report a very efficient method of photoreduction of Cr (VI) and photodegradation of methylene blue dye in aqueous medium using Z-scheme heterojunction based Sn3O4/SnS2 solar photocatalyst. The photocatalyst is synthesized by hydrothermal route and it is thoroughly characterized in terms of its structural, compositional, morphological and optical properties. About 100 % of Cr (VI) reduction in 60 min and 99.6 % of methylene blue degradation in 90 min is achieve under sunlight exposure at a photocatalytic rate of 0.066 min-1 and 0.043 min-1, respectively. The total organic carbon estimation of the post-degradation reaction medium corresponded to 85.1 % (MB) mineralization. The photocatalytic degradation is attributed to in-situ generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) e.g., superoxide radicals, hydroxide radicals, and the role of ROS towards reduction and degradation of Cr (VI) and MB respectively, is confirmed from ROS scavenging studies. The dye degradation mechanism has been discussed by analyzing the degradation products via UPLC-Q-Tof-MS. The photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue by Sn3O4/SnS2 nanocomposites is significantly enhanced as compared to SnS2 photocatalyst, attributed to Z-scheme heterojunction and the charge carrier mobility.
