Abstract

Nanocomposites have a huge amount of promise to help solve environmental problems, especially when it comes to breaking down biological pollutants with visible light. This article talks about the latest progress made in making and using hybrid materials for photocatalysis. Different kinds of nanocomposites, how they are made, and how well they break down organic toxins are all talked about. It is also looked at how important factors like shape, makeup, and surface features affect the photocatalytic activity of nanocomposites. There are also problems and opportunities for the future in the field, which emphasises how important it is to keep researching to improve nanocomposite-based photocatalytic systems for long-term environmental cleanup.
