The tertiary composite of TiO/CuO @ Ag (TCA) were synthesized by the solid state method using different ratios of TiO/CuO NCs and Ag NPs. The structural, morphological, and optical properties of nanocomposites were analyzed by scanning electron microscope, Transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectra, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-Vis/DRS) and photoluminescence spectrophotometry. The results showed enhanced activity of TCA hybrid nano crystals in oxidizing MB in water under visible light irradiation compared to pure TiO.

Investigate the use of visible light to improve photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater. Nitrogen-doped titania and molybdenum sulfide nanocomposites (NTM NCs) with different weight ratios of MoS (1, 2, and 3 wt.%) synthesized by a solid state method applied to the photodegradation of methylene blue(MB) under visible light irradiation.
