Abstract
A facile and cost-effective hydrothermal followed by precipitation method is employed to synthesize visible light-driven ZnS-Ag ternary composites supported on carbon aerogel (CA). Extensive studies were conducted on the structural, morphological, and optical properties, confirming the successful formation of ternary nanocomposites. The obtained results evidently demonstrate the successful loading of ZnS and Ag onto the surface of the CA. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed that ZnS and Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) were uniformly distributed on the surface of the CA with an average diameter of 18 nm. The biomass-derived CA, containing a hierarchical porous nano-architecture and an abundant number of -NH2 functional groups on the surface, can greatly prevent the agglomeration, stability and reduce particle size. Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis results indicated specific surface areas of 4.62 m2 g-1 for the CA, 48.50 m2 g-1 for the CA/ZnS composite, and 62.62 m2 g-1 for the CA/ZnS-Ag composite. These values demonstrate an increase in surface area upon the incorporation of ZnS and Ag into the CA matrix. Under visible light irradiation, the synthesized CA/ZnS-Ag composites displayed remarkably improved photodegradation efficiency of methylene blue (MB). Among the tested samples, the CA/ZnS-Ag composites exhibited the highest percentage of photodegradation efficiency, surpassing ZnS, CA, and CA/ZnS. The obtained percentages of degradation efficiency for CA, ZnS, CA/ZnS, and CA/ZnS-Ag composites were determined as 26.60%, 52.12%, 68.39%, and 98.64%, respectively. These results highlight the superior photocatalytic performance of the CA/ZnS-Ag composites in the degradation of MB under visible light conditions. The superior efficiency of the CA/ZnS-Ag composite can be attributed to multiple factors, including its elevated specific surface area, inhibition of electron-hole pair recombination, and enhanced photon absorption within the visible light spectrum. The CA/ZnS-Ag composites displayed consistent efficiency over multiple cycles, confirming their stable performance, reusability, and enduring durability, thereby showcasing the robust nature of this composite material.

Abstract
Organic pollutants such as dyes and pharmaceutical drugs have become a significant environmental problem due to their unrestricted discharge, especially in water bodies. As a result, an economically viable and environmentally friendly approach to their degradation in water bodies is required and the incorporation of metal tungstate with single metal oxide has attracted attention due to its potential ability towards the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants. The work demonstrates a WO3/g-C3N4/V2O5 nanocomposite synthesized using a facile route wet impregnation method. The results revealed that WO3/g-C3N4/V2O5 nanocomposites are suitable, mainly for their better surface properties, enhanced visible-light absorption, and preferred band positions. Besides that, the degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye is carried out and demonstrated that the complete degradation occurs over 120 min using 10 mg L-1 of WO3/g-C3N4/V2O5 nanocomposite under UV-visible-light irradiation. The scavenger experimental result implies that the photogenerated free electrons and superoxide radials are important role in MB dye degradation. In addition, a possible mechanism is proposed for the photocatalytic activity of WO3/g-C3N4/V2O5 nanocomposite. Moreover, the stability analysis demonstrated that the WO3/g-C3N4/V2O5 nanocomposite can be recycled multiple times.

Abstract
Copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) are among the most commonly employed nanoparticle materials owing to their antibacterial qualities, although their primary mechanism of action (MOA) is still not completely understood. CuO NPs are synthesized in this study using leaf extract of Tabernaemontana divaricate (TDCO3), and they are then analyzed using XRD, FT-IR, SEM, and EDX analysis. The zone of inhibition of TDCO3 NPs against both gram-positive (G+) B. subtilis and gram-negative (G-) K. pneumoniae bacteria was 34 mm and 33 mm, respectively. Furthermore, Cu2+/Cu+ ions promote reactive oxygen species and electrostatically bind with the negatively charged teichoic acid in the bacterial cell wall. The anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetics analysis was conducted using standard BSA denaturation and α-amylase inhibition technique with cell inhibition values of 85.66 and 81.18% for TDCO3 NPs. Additionally, the TDCO3 NPs delivered prominent anticancer activity with the lowest IC50 value 18.2 μg/mL in the MTT assay technique against HeLa cancer cells.

Abstract
The main objective of this study was to banana waste-derived activated carbon (BWAC) make a high pore surface area was prepared and composited with Fe3O4 via a facile hydrothermal method. Various physiochemical characteristics of the prepared samples were evaluated using XRD, FTIR, FESEM, Raman Spectroscopy and XPS analysis. In addition, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analyses were performed to determine the electrochemical properties of the prepared samples. The Fe3O4/BWAC sample showed a higher capacitance (285 F g-1) than BWAC at the same scan rate of 10 mV s-1. The capacitive deionization (CDI) cell configuration was varied, and its electro-sorption and defluoridization efficiencies were analyzed during the lead (Pb2+) removal 90%. An asymmetric combination of electrodes in the CDI cell exhibited better heavy metal removal performance, possibly due to the synergistic effect of the high surface area and the balance between the active adsorption site and the overlapping effect of the EDL. As a result, Fe3O4/BWAC could be a potential resource for supercapacitors and CDI electrodes, and the novel Fe3O4/BWAC nanocomposites outstanding performance suggests that they could be helpful for future energy storage and environmental applications.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been an increase in demand for inexpensive biowaste-derived photocatalysts for the degradation of hazardous dyes and pharmacological drugs. Here, we developed eggshell derived hydroxyapatite nanoparticles entrenched on two-dimensional g-C3N4 nanosheets. The structural, morphological and photophysical behavior of the materials is confirmed through various analytical techniques. The photocatalytic performance of the highly efficient HAp/gC3N4 photocatalyst is evaluated against methylene blue (MB) and doxycycline drug contaminates under UV–visible light exposure. The HAp/gC3N4 photocatalyst exhibit excellent photocatalytic performance for MB dye (93.69%) and doxycycline drug (83.08%) compared to bare HAp and g-C3N4 nanosheets. The ultimate point to note is that the HAp/gC3N4 photocatalyst was recycled in four consecutive cycles without any degradation performance. Superoxide radicals play an important role in degradation performance, which has been confirmed by scavenger experiments. Therefore, the biowaste-derived HAp combined with gC3N4 nanosheets is a promising photocatalyst for the degradation of hazardous dyes and pharmacological drug wastes.

Abstract
Fabrication of layered triple hydroxides (LTH) is a typical and remarkable approach to produce new functionalities passionately investigated for photocatalytic removal of organic pollutants from industrial wastewater. The hydrothermal method was used to prepare different weight percentages of yttrium (Y) doped NiMgAl LTH. The structural, functional, optical, and morphological properties of the prepared samples were investigated using X-ray diffraction, Fourier transformed-infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The photocatalytic degradation of the different percentages of Y-doped LTH samples were assessed through the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye under the visible light irradiation. When compared to other lower concentrations of Y doping, the photocatalytic degradation efficiency of 1 wt.% Y-doped LTH was higher. Thus, the optimized LTH's improved photocatalytic performance was attributed to increased visible light absorption with low transmission and improved electron-hole separation.

Abstract
Developing a novel electrode material with better electrochemical behavior and extended cyclability is a major issue in the field of hybrid capacitors. In this work, we propose a novel strategy for the facile synthesis of nickel-cobalt pyrophosphate nanoparticles anchored on graphitic carbon nitride (NiCoP2O7/g-C3N4) via the simple solvothermal method. Field emission scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed the uniform anchoring of NiCoP2O7 nanocomposite on g-C3N4 nanosheets. Benefitting from the effect of amorphous nature and a conductive matrix of the NiCoP2O7/g-C3N4 (NP3) composite, the material achieves a specific capacitance of 342 F g-1 at a scan rate of 5 mV s-1. Impressively, the electrode shows long-term cycling stability with 100% capacitance retention over 5000 cycles. Employing activated carbon as an anode and as-prepared NP3 as a cathode, the assembled asymmetric hybrid cell exhibits high-energy density and exceptional cyclability (specific capacitance retention over 10 000 cycles). The outstanding electrochemical and cyclic stability is attributed to the shortest electron-ion pathway with effective interfacial interaction. The low electronic resistance of the NiCoP2O7/g-C3N4 nanocomposite is revealed by varying the bias voltage variation in the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Our results promise better utilization of the bimetallic pyrophosphate-anchored g-C3N4 matrix as a potential electrode for high-performance energy storage devices.
