Abstract
in the case of the ethanol medium, the (110) plane exhibited significant intensity (which could potentially serve as a driving force for enhancing photocatalytic activity). The use of 100% ethanol HAp yields the most favorable outcome regarding both the degradation percentage (91.79%) and degradation capacity (7%) for the Congo red dye.
