Popis: A systematic method have been followed in Fe2O3/GO heterostructure synthesis via, a facile chemical vapor deposition (C-CVD) and hydrothermal route. The synthesized Fe2O3/GO which performs a single step process of photocatalytic degradation of Eosin Yellow (EY) with hazardless small molecular intermediates obtained. Concurrently, five different heavy metal removal is done under influence of solar radiation when exposed to sunlight. The first-rate antibacterial/fungal activity against Bacillus subtilis (MTCC 121); Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 7443); Salmonella typhi (MTCC 733); Candida albicans (MTCC 183), Fusarium verticillioides (MTCC 8792). And biocompatibility studies on Human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cell lines was systematically achieved. This work offers the opportunity to constructing of efficient photocatalyst with excellent biology to a safer environment.
