Popis: Nanocomposites with diameters of 1 to 100 nm have modified properties such as uniform size distribution, small size, high surface-to-volume ratio, high absorbability, porosity, and various potential roles, including in catalytic and biological activities. The purpose of this research study was to systematically review all research studies on the photocatalytic decomposition of pollutants by NiFe2O4-based nanocomposites and evaluate the optimal laboratory conditions and the results of these studies. The present systematic review was conducted by searching Scopus, PubMed and Web of Science databases until March 2022. The parameters of nano catalyst type and size, synthesis methods, pollutant type, optimal pH, optimal initial pollutant concentration, optimal catalyst concentration, optimal time, radiation and removal efficiency were investigated. 454 studies were screened and using the inclusion and exclusion criteria, in total, 31 studies met our inclusion criteria and provided the information necessary to photocatalytic degradation of pollutants by NiFe2O4-based nanocomposites. In the investigated studies, the percentage of photocatalytic degradation of pollutants by NiFe2O4-based nanocomposites was reported to be above 70%, and in some studies, the removal efficiency had reached 100%. From the results of this systematic review, it was concluded that the photocatalytic process using NiFe2O4-based nanocomposites has a high effect on the degradation of aqueous solution pollutants. HIGHLIGHTS 454 studies were screened and using the inclusion and exclusion criteria, in total, 31 studies met our inclusion criteria.; The percentage of photocatalytic degradation of pollutants by NiFe2O4-based nanoparticles was reported to be above 70%, and in some studies, the removal efficiency had reached 100%.;
