Biochar Nanoparticles over TiO<sub>2</sub> Nanotube Arrays: A Green Co-Catalyst to Boost the Photocatalytic Degradation of Organic Pollutants

Biochar Nanoparticles over TiO<sub>2</sub> Nanotube Arrays: A Green Co-Catalyst to Boost the Photocatalytic Degradation of Organic Pollutants

Biochar nanoparticles (BC NPs), produced by low temperature pyrolysis (350 °C) of microalgae (<i>Nannochloropsis</i> sp.) and nutshells, are proposed as low-cost and sustainable co-catalysts to promote the photocatalytic activity of TiO<sub>2</sub> nanotube (NT) arrays toward...
