Abstract

The nanostructures with different morphology have enormous applications in science and technology field, due to its vast advantages over normal materials. Here in, the research work has been carried out for the synthesis of novel nanostructures via hydrothermal method. The selection of nanomaterials was started with focus on the transition metal vanadates with high photocatalytic activity. The present work was carried out for the synthesis of copper metavanadates (CuV2O6) with different morphology like spherical and leaf like nanoparticle by hydrothermal method. The crystalinity and morphological properties were analyzed by using advanced instruments XRD and SEM respectively. Further, the photocatalytic properties of synthesized nanoparticle was investigated by made treatment with synthetic wastewater which contains the methyl red dye and heavymetals in it. The treatment was carried out for the different concentration of catalyst, methyl red dye, and heavymetals. However the effect of concentration of catalyst, pH, Dye concentration and heavymetal concentration was also investigated and founded the optimum concentration for the dye degradation and heavy metal removal simultaneously. This copper metavanadate with different morphology has high photocatalytic performance and the results were obtained with high efficiency.
