Photocatalytic Degradation of Amidoblack-10B Using Copper Hexacyanoferrate (II) as Semiconductor

Om Prakash Sharma, Mukesh Sharma and Mohan Kumar Sharma

The photocatalytic degradation of amidoblack-10B has been investigated using copper hexacyanoferrte (II) as semiconductor. Copper hexacyanoferrte(II) was prepared from co-precipitation process. The effect of operational parameters, i.e. pH of solution, amount of semiconductor, conc. of dye solution and effect of light intensities on the rate of photocatalytic process has been examined. A tentative mechanism for the photocatalytic degradation of amidoblack-10B has also been proposed.
