Preparation and characterization of zno/bentonite nanocomposites for enhanced photocatalytic degradation of pesticides in contaminated water

Abstract This study analyzed water samples from Jazan, Saudi Arabia, identifying six pesticides from organochlorine (OCP) and organophosphorus (OPP) groups. The objective was to degrade these contaminants using ZnO nanoparticles and ZnO/bentonite nanocomposites as photocatalysts. Both commercial and...
