Abstract

Textile industry wastewater is considered one of the most terrible sources of pollution to our precious aquatic environment because it is mutagenic, carcinogenic, cytotoxic, and other genotoxic to natural compounds. This literature review collects and investigates the latest available research on photocatalytic wastewater or organic pollutant degradation using carbon-based materials in textile industrial wastewater treatment. Materials such as carbon have been used in several studies to enhance photocatalytic performance due to superior properties such as small particle size, high specific surface area-to-volume ratio, high reactivity, excellent chemistry, high thermal stability, wide availability, and catalytic potential on the nanoscale. Heterojunction formation is one of the most effective methods for increasing charge separation efficiency and reducing photogenerated electron–hole pair recombination. There are many ways to increase the photocatalytic performance for carbon-based material, such as heterojunction formation, using g-C3N4 or zinc oxide/carbon nanocomposite as a photocatalyst, surface modification to improve electron transport efficiency in semiconductor particles, using a green hydrothermal method to synthesize a hierarchy of graphene oxide/zinc nanocomposites, and more. Interestingly, the membrane separation technique explains the removal and recovery of synthetic colors from wastewater, which is a potential technical route. Functional composite membranes integrating photoelectrocatalysis and membrane filtration have been the subject of recent research. Finally, carbon-based materials are prospective to improve photocatalytic reaction due to their adsorption capability.
