Comparative Study of the Photocatalytic Degradation of Crystal Violet Using Ferromagnetic Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles and MgO-Bentonite Nanocomposite

Sally E. A. Elashery et al.

Summary: This study reports on the application of synthesized magnesium oxide nanoparticles and MgO-bentonite nanocomposite as effective photocatalysts for the degradation of crystal violet in wastewater. Characterization techniques including FTIR, XRPD, EDX, and TEM were used. The photocatalytic efficiency of the synthesized photocatalysts was optimized by varying factors such as pH, contact time, catalyst dosage, and dye concentration. The highest degradation efficiency for crystal violet was achieved at a pH of 7 and using 0.2 g of MgO NPs. The photocatalytic reaction was found to be mediated by holes and followed a pseudo-first-order kinetic model.
