Abstract
Natural waste product releases to estuaries found to be virulent. An easy combustion technique has implemented for drawing up copper-doped magnesium ferrite [CuxMg0.8-xFe2O4 (x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4 0.6)] nanoparticles, as a result, photocatalysts will pull out dye contaminants from wastewater. An attempt makes to synthesize CuxMg0.8-xFe2O4 (x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6) by combustion process. The XRD analysis revealed the formation of single-phase face-centered cubic spinel. A range of 4.5-5.5 eV is computed in the energy bandgap when calculated using UV-vis spectroscopy. From the SEM images, inhomogeneous and agglomerated grains have recognized. The elemental composition of the prepared ferrites has confirmed by the elemental dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX). The luminescence strength diminishes with a rise within the doping of Cu was disclosed by the PL spectra. The improved antibacterial action monitored for Cu-doped Mg ferrites due to the dopants, morphology, crystallinity and bandgap. The impact of optimal pH, photocatalyst concentration, initial congo red dye concentration and reactive oxygen species on the degradation efficiency was examined. The effectiveness of the CuxMg0.8-xFe2O4 catalyst on the dye degradation in UV light was far more than the profitable photocatalyst.
