Abstract

in dye degradation, covering the removal mechanism, reaction ordering, reaction kinetics and influence of co-catalysts under different physicochemical conditions. These review articles will hopefully be an asset for new researchers working in the field of sustainable water management and nanocatalysts with a clarified idea of reductive photocatalysts with sodium borohydride. In order to facilitate quick electron transfer to dye molecules and accelerate their degradation, sodium borohydride acts as an electron donor and experiences surface oxidation on metal catalysts.
