Abstract

In this work, CuO/Co3O4/NiO (CCN) NC was synthesized using an aqueous extract of Jasminum mesyni (J. mesyni) leaves which functioned as both a reducing and a capping agent. The synthesized CCN NC was characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. CCN NC demonstrated exceptional photocatalytic activity under sunlight irradiation by degrading 50 ppm aqueous methylene blue (m. blue) within 25 minutes. The kinetic studies revealed the first-order model, with a rate constant of 0.10893 min-1. The bactericidal activity of CCN NC was verified against three gram-positive and three gramnegative bacteria. This study highlights the potential of CCN NC for biomedical and wastewater treatment.
