Porous and Bifunctional ZnO-Hydroxyapatite Nanostructure for Photocatalytic Degradation of Paracetamol and Methylene Blue in Water

Porous ZnO-hydroxyapatite nanocomposite was prepared by dissolution of a rock phosphate ore in an acidic medium followed by alkaline precipitation. Its photocatalytic activity was assessed for the degradation of paracetamol as one of the most commonly prescribed pharmaceutical drugs and methylene blue as dye model. Thanks to its good porosity, the 40ZnHAp nanocomposite adsorbed the […]
