Water treatment by photodegradation on orthorhombic antimony sulfide powder and effect of key operational parameters using methyl orange as a model pollutant

Photocatalytic treatment of colored wastewaters containing methyl orange was achieved using visible light active Sb2S3 photocatalyst powder. Antimony chloride and sodium sulfide were used as antimony and sulfur precursors, respectively, for the synthesis of Sb2S3 powder by the hydrothermal method. T...
