The unavailability of clean drinking water is one the significant health issues in modern times. Industrial dyes are dominant chemicals that make unfit for drinking. Among these dyes, methylene blue (MB) toxic, carcinogenic, and non-biodegradable can cause a severe threat to human environmental safety. It usually released natural sources, which becomes beings living organisms. Hence, there need develop an environmentally friendly, efficient technology removing MB from wastewater. Photodegradation advanced oxidation process widely used removal. has advantages complete mineralization dye into simple nontoxic species with potential decrease processing cost. This review provides tutorial basis readers working degradation research area. We not only covered basic principles but also provided wide range previously published work on photocatalytic systems (single-component multi-component photocatalysts). Our study focused critical parameters affect photodegradation rate MB, such as photocatalyst type loading, irradiation reaction time, pH media, initial concentration dye, radical scavengers oxidising agents. mechanism, pathways, intermediate products, final products summarized. An overview future perspectives utilize at industrial scale provided. paper identifies strategies development effective systems.

Nanozymes have drawn significant scientific interest due to their high practical importance in terms of overcoming the instability, complicated synthesis, and cost protein enzymes. However, activity is generally limited particular pHs, especially acidic ones. Herein, we report that luminescent N, S, P-co-doped carbon quantum dots (NSP-CQDs) act as attractive peroxidase mimetics a wide pH range, even at neutral pH, for substrate 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) presence H2O2. The synergistic effects multiple heteroatoms doping CQDs boost catalytic range attributed density active sites enzymatic-like catalysis accelerated electron transfer during peroxidase-like reactions.
