Photocatalytic degradation of malachite green dye by plant-mediated biosynthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles

Photocatalytic activity of ZnO-NPs was tested by degradation of Malachite Green dye under UV light irradiation. The ZnO-NPs were biosynthesized using Punica granatum (pomegranate) fruit peels extract as the stabilizing agent. Simple sol-gel method and calcination in different temperatures (400, 500,...
