Fabrication of Bi۵O۷I-Ce Nanoparticles and Investigation It’s Photocatalytic Performance for Degradation of Doxorubicin Drug

Increasing population leads increase in the demand of pharmaceuticals for the existence of a healthy society. But the overuse of pharmaceutical and their continuous discharge in aquatic environment is becoming an emerging scientific and societal concern. In this study an effective photocatalyst based on Bi۵O۷I-Ce nanoparticles was prepared and illustrated impressive performance in degradation of doxorubicin (DOX) equal to ۹۷.۵۶% by visible light irritation. Accuracy of synthesized photocatalyst was studied by FT-IR analysis. Different experimental parameters, including pH, time, concentration and amount of photocatalyst were studied and optimized. The obtained optimum conditions for the proposed method were: pH of solution: ۸.۰, time: ۹۰ min, concentration: ۲۰.۰ μg/mL and amount of photocatalyst: ۰.۰۰۴g.
