Efficient reduction of Cr(VI) under visible light irradiation using CuS nanostructures
Photoreduction of hexavalent chromium, Cr(VI), identified as carcinogenic and mutagenic element, to Cr(III), believed to be an essential element, using copper sulfide nanostructures (CuS NSs) as photocatalyst was investigated under visible light irradiation (λ > 420 nm). The CuS NSs were synthesi...
