Abstract
Nanosize zinc oxide (ZnO) particles were supported on a suitable, inert and porous zeolite by a simple hydrothermal and sol–gel method in order to maximise adsorption and photocatalytic performance as well as retrievability and cost down. The effects of zeolite type, soak cycles, soak temperature and soak time of ZnO/zeolite composite materials on photocatalytic activity were discussed, which showed that the degradation of methylene blue dye in water can reach 91% after 150 min under UV light irradiation using synthetic zeolite as the supporting material with single soak cycles for 15 min under 50°C.
