This study synthesizes zinc oxide and graphene oxide using biomass, suggesting enhanced photocatalytic degradation of dye.

The ZnO/GO (7%) composite achieved 87% degradation efficiency of dye in 90 minutes, indicating strong photocatalytic performance.
Kinetic studies showed a pseudo-first-order reaction with ZnO/GO (7%) having the highest rate constant at 0.0208 min−1.
Hydroxyl radicals were identified as the primary reactive species in the photocatalytic process, highlighting the mechanism of degradation.
This approach utilizes waste materials, demonstrating a sustainable method for producing high-performance photocatalysts for environmental remediation.

Jamjoum et al. (2025) studied this question.
