Highly efficient photodegradation of raw landfill leachate using cost-effective and optimized g-CN/SnO/WO quantum dots under Vis-NIR light.

In this study, photodegradation of raw landfill leachate under Vis-NIR irradiation and sunlight has been investigated using optimized g-CN/SnO/WO quantum dots as a novel nanocomposite. g-CN/SnO/WO QDs was successfully synthesized and characterized using various analyses. The best mixing ratios of the nanocomposite components were obtained by response surface methodology (RSM).
