Abstract

This study focuses on the synthesis of V-doped TiO2 materials using a modified polyol method to enhance their efficiency. The obtained materials were characterized by various methods such as XRD, EDX, FTIR, SEM, TEM-SAED, Raman, and UV-Vis DRS. The results indicated the crystalline anatase phase of TiO2, with spherical morphology and an average size of 30nm. The UV-DRS measurement demonstrated that doped materials have a lower bandgap than the pristine TiO2. The material possesses dual functionality, with adsorption capability and photocatalytic activity applied to treat organic dye contaminants. Evaluation of MB degradation under UV irradiation revealed an exceptional efficiency of up to 99% within a remarkably short duration of 30 minutes. Furthermore, the catalyst exhibited robust recovery efficiency exceeding 99% after 2 regeneration cycles and retention of approximately 80% after four cycles.
