Article Synopsis
  • * The study reviews various cellulose sources (like plant, bacterial, algae, and tunicate) and discusses different photocatalyst nanomaterials (e.g., TiO, ZnO, g-CN, graphene) along with their synthesis methods and application in water treatment.
  • * It highlights how modifying cellulose composites through techniques like metal doping and the use of metal-organic frameworks improves their performance in degrading pollutants, offering insights into sustainable photocatalyst development.

In this study, a novel cellulose/Ag/TiO nanocomposite was successfully synthesized via the hydrothermal method. The cellulose extracted from oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) could address the disposal issue created by OPEFB biomass. Characterization studies such as FESEM, EDX, HRTEM, XRD, FTIR, UV-Vis DRS, PL, XPS, and surface analysis were conducted.
