Abstract
Zinc oxidenanostructures were synthesized using a thermal decomposition method and subsequently doped with Fe (III)in this study. Techniques such as X-ray diffraction, Field emission scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to investigate the structural and chemical composition of nanomaterials. Fe-doped ZnO was synthesized using a simple, low-cost planetary high-energy ball milling process. The sonophotocatalytic activity of Fe-doped ZnO under visible light and ultrasonic waves was then studied. Another aspect of this study is the utilization of visible light, which is far more accessible and cost-effective than UV light. Malachite green (MG) and phenol were applied as water-soluble contaminants. MG degraded about 87.65% after 1 h in the presence of a Fe-doped ZnO catalyst under visible light and ultrasonic waves simultaneously. Phenolwas degraded by approximately 64.50% under the same conditions.
