Facile co-precipitation synthesize of CeO2@g-C3N4 heterostructure for sustainable sunlight photodegradation of organic dyes and antibacterial activity

Key Points

• The photodegradation of organic dyes increased significantly with CeO2@g-C3N4 under sunlight exposure, showing its effectiveness.
• Key metrics indicate a reduction of 90% in dye concentration within 120 minutes of exposure to sunlight.
• This approach utilized co-precipitation to synthesize CeO2@g-C3N4 heterostructure for effective results.
• These findings suggest further exploration for applications in environmental remediation and antibacterial uses.
