Visible Light Heterogeneous Photocatalytic Degradation Of Eosin-B And Eriochrome Black-T Using H2o2 Sensitized Monoclinic Bivo4

Visible light photo catalytic degradation of Eosine Blue and Eriochrome Black-T dyes is investigated over monoclinic BiVO4 prepared by room temperature solid-state metathesis. XRD pattern showed formation of phase pure monoclinic BiVO4 . Complete photo degradation of Eosin Blue and Eriochrome Black-T occurred for respective irradiation times of 120 and 210 min. in presence of H2O2 . A synergetic effect between BiVO4 and H2O2 led to enhanced degradation of both dyes.
