Innovations in Water Treatment Technologies: Enhancing Photocatalytic Activity of ZnS/MoS۲/Fe۳O۴ Nanocomposite for the Degradation of Tetracycline Antibiotic

This study synthesized ZnS/MoS۲ and ZnS/MoS۲/Fe۳O۴ nanocomposites via hydrothermal and co-precipitation methods. The structural characteristics were confirmed with X-ray diffraction and TEM images, revealing high purity and well-crystallized structures. Photocatalytic tests showed that the ZnS/MoS۲/Fe۳O۴ nanocomposite achieved ۹۴% degradation of tetracycline under ultraviolet light and ۷۳% under visible light in ۵۰ minutes. Optimal pH at ۹ enhanced interactions with positively charged pollutants. These findings highlight the potential of these nanocomposites for effective antibiotic degradation.
