Highly-effective photocatalyst of NiO/g-C3N4 with was successfully synthesized by using phyto-mediated-synthesized nickel nanoparticles. The preparation was initiated by synthesizing nickel nanoparticles by using Tinosphora cordifolia stem extract under ultrasound-assisted method followed by the dispersing onto g-C3N4 structure. The study focused on physicochemical characterization and photocatalytic activity as function of the percentage of Ni in the nanocomposite. The photocatalytic activity examinations were carried out to rhodamine B and tetracycline photocatalytic oxidation. The results demonstrated that graphitic carbon nitride is effectively improved the photocatalytic activity of NiO for both photocatalytic oxidation reactions. From the varied Ni content of 5; 10; and 20 %wt., it was also found that the highest photoactivity was achieved by the composite having 10 %wt. of nickel content. The high effectivity was showed by degradation efficiency of 95% toward Rhodamine B and 98% toward tetracycline. The examination on effect of scavengers suggests that Z-scheme involved in the photocatalytic mechanism which facilitated the efficient separation of the photogenerated electron–hole pairs under visible light illumination. In summary, the present findings provide a green approach for fabricating the effective photocatalysts for organic contaminant degradation. |
