A Comparative Study of Sol–Gel Synthesized ZnO/GO and ZnO/g-C3N4 Nanocomposites in the Photocatalytic Degradation of Acetaminophen

A Comparative Study of Sol–Gel Synthesized ZnO/GO and ZnO/g-C3N4 Nanocomposites in the Photocatalytic Degradation of Acetaminophen

The large surface area for pollutant adsorption and low charge recombination exhibited by carbon-based nanocomposites enhances the performance efficiency of photocatalysts. Herein, the performance of ZnO/GO and ZnO/g-C3N4 nanocomposites in the photocatalytic degradation of acetaminophen under UV irr...
