This paper discusses the catalytic activity of ZnO/CuO/nanographene platelets composites under visible light and ultrasound irradiation separately. The ZnO/CuO/nanographene platelets composites were synthesized using a sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption spectroscopy were employed to investigate the structural and surface area of the catalyst. The catalytic activity results showed that the presence of nanographene platelets in ZnO/CuO nanocomposites improved its efficiency in degrading methylene blue. A scavenger method was also used to understand the role of charged carriers and the active radical involved in the catalytic activity.

Three-dimensional (3-D) periodic hematite scaffold was successfully fabricated by direct writing method as a catalyst for degradation of organic contaminants. Photo-catalytically active α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles have been synthesized by sol-gel technique. Aqueous slurries of iron oxides were freeform fabricated to produce hematite scaffolds with a 3-D periodic architecture and multiscale porosity. The catalytic activity of the hematite scaffolds was evaluated in the degradation of Methylene Blue (MB). It was found that the degradation rate of MB dye was over 83%. The result strongly indicates that the hematite scaffolds exhibits a high catalytic activity. Moreover, this work provides an important step forward in the creation of suitable structures for photocatalyst.
