Acceleration of photo-reduction and oxidation capabilities of Bi4O5I2/SPION@calcium alginate by metallic Ag: Wide spectral removal of nitrate and azithromycin

Wide spectral responsive photocatalysts with improved charge separation and transfer capacity have attracted researchers for various photo-oxidative and reductive applications. This work reports Vis-NIR active photocatalyst [email protected]4O5I2/[email protected] alginate (here in designated as ABSA) prepared by hydrothermal impregnation for high performance degradation of azithromycin (AZY) and selective reduction of NO3– into N2.
