Abstract

ZnO was incorporated into nano particles of clinoptiloite by ion exchanging the zeolite in a zinc nitrate aqueous solution followed by calcinations process. All raw and modified samples were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, DRS, TG-DTG, SEM, BET and TEM. The prepared catalyst was used in the photocatalytic degradation of phenylhydrazine (PHZ) and the best experimental parameters were obtained as: 0.25gL−1 of the catalyst, 20ppm pollutant concentration and pH=8. The degradation extent was monitored by UV–vis spectroscopy and the results were confirmed by HPLC and the chemical oxygen demand (COD).
