Abstract
) and methyl red (MR)]. On the other hand, HKUST-1 has been proved to activate PMS by conducting photoelectrons, which accelerated the degradation of dyes. Compared with the reaction conditions of PMS/Vis, when the HKUST-1 was present (HKUST-1/PMS/Vis), the degradation rates of MB and RhB increased by 62.7 and 63.2%, respectively.
