In this paper, FeO and FeO-zeolite nanopowders are prepared by chemical precipitation utilizing the rusted iron waste and natural zeolite. In addition to the nanomorphologies; the chemical composition, structural parameters, and optical properties are examined using many techniques. The FeO-zeolite photocatalyst showed smaller sizes and higher light absorption in visible light than FeO.

Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are very effective, reductive nanocatalysts that can degrade many organic dyes. In this study, Ag-NPs are stabilized and capped with bioactive compounds such as , , and from marine macroalgae extracts to produce Ag[GE], Ag[TE], and Ag[EE] NPs.
