Degradation of methyl orange and Alizarin Red S from waste water using poly(azomethine)/ZnO nanocomposite as a photocatalyst

The main objective of the investigation is to synthesize polymeric nanocomposite material ZnO doped PAZ (PNZ) through Ultrasonication method.composed of a chelating polymer with azomethine linkages and an inorganic semiconductor material as an effective dopant. The synthesized polymeric nanocomposites were utilised for the deprivation of dyes like Methyl Orange (MO) and Alizarin Red S (ARS). These synthesized polymeric nanocomposites can act as a potential alternate in future due to its enhanced dye deprivation ability and higher stability nature. By varying contact time (1-5h) interval at 50ppm dye concentration using 500mg of prepared photocatalysts. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic models were able to sufficiently describe the kinetics of the process. Stability of Photocatalyts were examined upto five rounds.
