Resum
In the present study, materials based on hydrochar modified with hydrozincite were designed, varying the weight percentage of hydrozincite. The hydrozincite was prepared via a chemical co-precipitation method using thermal urea hydrolysis without any prior activation or calcination process. The hydrochar modified with hydrozincite was synthesized using a hydrothermal method at 300°C. These materials were applied in the photodegradation of contaminants. The characterization of these materials revealed that the presence of heterojunctions and oxygen vacancies plays a crucial role in the photocatalytic reaction mechanism. These materials were evaluated under UV light and a solar light simulator. The material that exhibited the highest photodegradation percentage contained 10 % by weight of hydrozincite. This suggests that these materials could be a promising alternative for the decomposition of such pollutants present in wastewater.
