Abstract. The present work focuses on the photo-catalytic degradation of methyl orange (MO) on Erbium trioxide nanoparticles Er2O3 NPs. In this study, Er2O3 nanoparticles were synthesized and fully characterized via various techniques including; XRD diffraction, UV-Vis spectroscopy and SEM techniques. The results revealed that, the photo-catalytic activity of the prepared Er2O3 NPs towards methyl orange (MB) photo-degradation was manifested. The optimum efficiency obtained was 16 %.

Abstract. The present work focuses on the photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange (MO) on erbium trioxide nanoparticles (Er2O3 NPs). In this study, Er2O3 nanoparticles were synthesized and fully characterized via various techniques, including X-ray diffraction, UV–visible spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy techniques. The results revealed that the photocatalytic activity of the prepared Er2O3 NPs was manifested in MO photodegradation. The optimum efficiency obtained was 16 %.
