Efficient Degradation of Methylene Blue in Industrial Wastewater and High Cycling Stability of Nano ZnO.

Photocatalytic degradation research has attracted significant attention in the wake of the increasingly severe global challenge of water pollution. In this study, nano-ZnO was synthesized through a straightforward method using zinc acetate anhydrous as the precursor. The experimental results revealed that annealing conditions significantly influenced the bandgap energy (Eg) of ZnO, with a positive correlation observed between the intensity of photoluminescence (PL) spectra and photocatalytic activity.
