| Summary: | This study investigated a photochemical synthesis route for CdS particles, utilizing gas condensate extracted from oil wells as a sulfur source due to its high sulfur compound content. To confirm the synthesis and characterize the CdS, common techniques were employed. The photocatalytic performance of the synthesized particles was evaluated in the degradation of methylene blue dye under various conditions. Under optimized conditions the degradation efficiency of dye reached 96 % ± 0.5. This study presents a novel photochemical method for synthesizing CdS and highlights the potential application of its in environmental remediation. The process offers an effective approach for removing sulfur from fuels. |
