Plant-Based Natural Dye-Stimulated Visible-Light Reduction of GO and Physicochemical Factors Influencing the Production of Oxidizing Species by a Synthesized (rGO)/TiO2 Nanocomposite for Environmental Remediation

Here, we report our findings related to the structural and photocatalytic considerations that influence the speed of electron-hole separation in semiconductor photocatalysis in the presence of reduced graphene oxide. A comparison of the exterior properties required for the degradation of the dye methylene blue and drug amoxicillin (C 16 H 19 N 3 O 5 S) as a probe by the synthesized photocatalyst reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/TiO 2 nanowire with graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide; TiO 2 alone reveals that TiO 2 is significantly influenced by three factors: (1) rGO interactions with TiO 2 in terms of electron and hole transfer, (2) mode of reduction strategies adopted for reducing graphene oxide, and (3) production of OH • by the catalyst used. This work provides a thorough insight into the smooth, encouraging, and environment-friendly way developed for synthesizing reduced graphene oxide (rGO). The indigo dye-stimulated visible-light reduction methodology not only gives us an easy light-assisted reduction technique but also leads to new ways to get photoactive carbon-based titania semiconductor nanocomposites. Inspired by advances taking place in materials science as well as nanotechnology, we sought to develop improved photocatalytic materials by modifications to anatase TiO 2 through which opportunities to improve the performance of photocatalytic pollutant treatment may emerge.
