In this study ZnO photocatalysts with different loading of Eu2O3 and Sm2O3 were prepared vie microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. The prepared samples were investigated by using XRD, SEM and BET analysis. The photocatalytic activity was determined by degradation of methylene blue (MB) under Osram Vitalux illumination. Prepared ZnO photocatalysts shown high photocatalytic activity under solar light simulated radiation. After 30 minute of irradiation more than 95 % of initial MB solution was degraded. The effect of pH and photocatalyst dosage was investigated. The reusability of photocatalysts was also studied.

TiO2 nanotubes were synthesized using TiO2 powder as raw material from a hydrothermal method. It was observed that the sample prepared at 130°C and calcined at 450°C only anatase formed, but the sample calcined at 800°C, both anatase and rutile formed. The obtained TiO2 nanotubes prepared at a hydrothermal temperature of 130°C and calcined at 450°C have a greater surface area of 356.8m2/g. Moreover, the TiO2 nanotubes demonstrate the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue solution effectively by exposing the nanotubes in aqueous solution under visible light.
