Photocatalytic degradation of imidacloprid using semiconductor hybrid nano-catalyst: kinetics, surface reactions and degradation pathways

R. Garg et al.

Summary: The study focused on the degradation and mineralization of imidacloprid in surface waters using hybrid nano-catalysts g-C3N4/ZnO with different compositions. The g-C3N4/ZnO (20:80) catalyst showed the highest degradation efficiency (95.6%) under UV-C light intensity of 15 W/m(2) and pH 7, attributed to its improved surface area, lower bandgap, and lower photoluminescence intensity. Analysis using LC-MS revealed the formation of various by-products during the degradation process.
