Photocatalytic Reduction of Cr(VI) and Pb(II) with Biogenically Synthesized Copper Oxide Nanoparticles Using an Extract of the <i>Myriophyllum spicatum</i> Plant

The biogenic synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles was explored using the <i>Myriophyllum spicatum</i> plant through a process involving co-precipitation and was utilized as an effective photocatalyst for the reduction of Cr(VI) and Pb(II) ions in an aqueous solution. The plant-mediate...
