Abstract The application of nanocatalysts for the conversion crude oil into biodiesel represents a promising strategy to mitigate environmental issues and diminish dependence on fossil fuels. This review scrutinizes contemporary developments in nanocatalyst technology pertaining synthesis, emphasizing effectiveness, specificity, ecological sustainability various nanocatalysts, which include metal oxides, magnetic solid catalysts, an array other nanostructured materials. These catalysts have exhibited substantial potential augmenting efficiency selectivity production, attributable their enhanced catalytic performance, extensive surface area, resilience saponification, rendering them appropriate diverse feedstocks such as recycled oils, animal fats, plant oils. Notwithstanding obstacles associated with production costs recycling procedures, recent progress economically viable manufacturing techniques sustainable recovery methods, including separation approaches, offers significant promise. A thorough lifecycle assessment (LCA) remains imperative appraise economic viability employing taking account parameters, raw material acquisition, energy utilization, waste generation. accentuates superior efficacy comparison traditional heterogeneous underscoring capacity expedite synthesis facilitate transition toward more environmentally paradigm.

Abstract This study deals with the synthesis and characterization of Sr-doped ZnO thin films different concentrations (1, 3, 5, 7 wt%) using SILAR method (Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption Reaction). The main objective is to evaluate effectiveness as photocatalysts for degradation methylene blue under natural sunlight conditions. X-ray diffraction analysis confirms polycrystalline nature films, crystallite size increasing Sr doping along (100) plane. Morphological changes on film surfaces are revealed by scanning electron microscopy correlate content. Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX) that there no impurities in all films. 3D surface topography shows higher leads an increase average roughness root mean square (Rq) values. Measurements water droplet contact angle (WDCA) indicate hydrophilicity surface. Optical absorption capacity increases shifts slightly towards longer wavelengths. Additionally, band gap energy (Eg) a linear increment dopant concentrations. unique contribution this work lies careful investigation photocatalytic sunlight. In particular, doped 5 wt% show exceptional performance, achieving rates 94.82%, 94.61%, 93.48% first, second, third cycles, respectively. novelty these results successful SILAR, comprehensive their properties remarkable efficiency observed real provides valuable insights into potential application efficient blue, thus contributing further development environmentally friendly materials.

The extensive use of veterinary antibiotics worldwide has led to their increasing accumulation in aquatic environments, adversely affecting both ecosystems and human health leading the emergence antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Antibiotic residues enter water bodies primarily through wastewater effluent discharge, agricultural runoff, improper disposal pharmaceuticals. Several emerging technologies have been developed response challenge antibiotic contamination wastewater. Among these, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), including photocatalysis, demonstrated significant potential for degradation. Photocatalysis relies on production powerful oxidants degrade pollutants under simulated or solar-light irradiation. Apart from well-known TiO2, various photocatalytic materials used with metal oxides frontline. In this context, doping reduce bandgap energy enhance absorption visible light charge-carrier separation. Doping non-metals carbon-based is another attractive alternative that promotes better degradation efficiency suppresses recombination. Moreover, designs, such as heterojunction constructions, effective charge separation wider utilization spectrum. This comprehensive review summarizes recent advances design, characterization, efficiency, mechanisms photocatalysts degrading wastewater, along toxicity assessments resulting transformation products. By examining these parameters, current body knowledge consolidated, providing valuable insights into purification removal. Finally, by emphasizing critical environmental importance streamlined photocatalysis challenges associated scaling up process, highlights its feasibility mitigating pollution, thereby safeguarding reducing risks resistance.
