Abstract
This paper involves the investigation of the calcined Ca-hydroxyzincate dehydrate (CHZ) as solid base catalysts for photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TG–DTA), and UV–Vis spectroscopy were carried out to characterize and evaluate the as-prepared samples. The calcined catalysts performances were promising compared to non-calcined material. All the photocatalysts prepared under different processing temperatures (200, 400 and 600 °C) displayed 100% methylene blue degradation compared to the non-calcined sample with 100% dye removal.
