Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A novel composition for a photocatalyst Fe doped ZnO nano-particle photocatalyst that enables the decontamination process by degrading toxic organic material such as brilliant cresyl blue, indigo carmine and gentian blue by using solar light is described. In the current disclosure method of making a specific size of the nano photocatalyst is described. Characterization of the photocatalyst, optimal working conditions and efficient use of solar light has been described to show that this photocatalyst is unique. The process described to use the photocatalyst to degrade toxic organic material using the solar light to activate the photocatalyst is cost efficient and cheap to clean our water resources.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of synthesizing an Iron (Fe) doped Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nano-particle photocatalyst, comprising: mixing a solid iron nitrate and zinc nitrate in a ratio of 1:3; dissolving the solid nitrate and zinc nitrate using a distilled water into a solution at a specific temperature; adjusting a pH of the solution to a specific pH by adding a sodium hydroxide solution to obtain a pH adjusted homogeneous solution; heating and constant stirring the pH adjusted…
