Abstract
nanosheets showing promising potential for environmental remediation, particularly in the degradation of organic pollutants like MB. The findings also suggest that optimizing the photocatalyst design could enhance the degradation of more chemically stable pollutants, thereby expanding the scope of applications for clean energy production and environmental protection.
