According to research
conducted by Lee, Lai, Ngai, & Juan (2016)
it is analyzed that Residual dyes is the most important problem about
water pollution. Residual dye are obtained from different sources like textile
industries, Craft bleaching industries, pulp industries etc.the most toxic and dangerous to organism is the wide
variety of persistent organic pollutants which was present in our natural water
resources. Various technologies and techniques has been used for the
elimination of these organic particles [8].
The most advanced technology
which is used is zinc oxide (ZnO) photo catalyst. Due its extraordinary
characteristics ZnO photo catalyst attracts attention of many researchers. ZnO
photo catalyst has high efficiency due to maximize photo absorption and
minimize loss of electron. For getting more improvement in heterogeneous photo
catalysis there will be the use of UV rays. On the other hand metal doping and
binary photocatalyst system become the favourite research of various scientists.
By changing the preparation method there will be the change in the properties’
of metal doping which was further used in ZnO photo catalyst [8].
Nanoporous carbon particles of Water treatment
According to the research
conducted by Torad, et al. (2014) it is noticed
that for getting high catalytic activity and strong magnetic respose then metal
nanoparticles will be use.by reacting
magnetic cobalt (Co) react with
nanoporous carbon particles for synthesizing nanoparticles.this can be done by
carbonation of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) crystals. when the
carbonation can be don, careshould be taken that shape of ZIF-67 should not be
change [9].
Co nanoparticles
show a strong magnetic response because it have excellent absorption and it
also high suface area, it also shows fast diffusion of methylene
blue(MB)nanoporous carbon (NPC) materials have following properties like:
narrow pore-size distribution, excellent chemical resistance, high specific
area. There is wide range of research fields in NPC material: fields are the
following: such as energy storage, absorption, separation, and energy
conversion. Now we are expecting that
there will be the copperative effect between the nanoparticles and
mesostructures [9].
