Analytical evaluation of an Ag-MOF photocatalyst for efficient malachite green degradation in wastewater: kinetics, mechanism, and stability
Ahmed Hussain Jawhari, Ahmed Ismael
Abstract
A silver–niacin-based MOF was synthesized using a green solvothermal process and thoroughly characterized. The material demonstrated rapid and efficient photocatalytic degradation of malachite green dye with 97% removal in 90 minutes.
