Abstrakt: Water pollution from dyes in wastewater is a critical global issue, as these stable organic dyes resist biodegradation, posing serious threats to aquatic ecosystems. To address this situation, advanced photocatalysts have been developed. Here, NiFe 2 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 was synthesized for the photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) dye in the presence of H 2 O 2 and visible light. Physicochemical analysis results showed NiFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles dispersed in the g-C 3 N 4 matrix, with an upward trend in the saturation magnetization of CNF x as NiFe 2 O 4 content rose. The surface area of CNF30 was 62.3 m 2 g -1 , outperforming both NiFe 2 O 4 (23.2 m 2 g -1 ) and g-C 3 N 4 (48.5 m 2 g -1 ). NiFe 2 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 could be reused up to four cycles, and efficiently catalyzed the degradation of nearly 98% RhB dye, showing a decreased rate of up to 95% COD. Through scavenger studies, the main role of ˙OH was demonstrated. Therefore, highly efficient and recyclable NiFe 2 O 4 /g-C 3 N 4 can be a potential photocatalyst for degradation of dyes.
