Abstract
Research on the synthesis of CuO has been performed. Copper oxide (CuO) was synthesized via a precipitation method using varying concentrations of KOH. The synthesized CuO was characterized using FTIR and XRD techniques. The optimal CuO was obtained at a KOH concentration of 0.3 M. Photocatalytic activity was evaluated using methylene blue degradation in the presence of H2O2. The results indicated that CuO exhibited significant photocatalytic activity, with a maximum degradation efficiency of 96.5% achieved within 60 minutes. The reaction followed second-order kinetics with a rate constant of 0.0415 M-1min-1. These findings suggest the potential application of CuO as an efficient photocatalyst for environmental remediation.
