Abstract
This article reports preparation of Bi$_2$WO$_6$ using solid-state and solution combustion methods. Different physicochemical characterization techniques such as XRD, SEM, TEM, BET-N$_2$ adsorption study, UV–vis, XPS and photoluminescence spectroscopy were used to examine crystalline phase, optical and morphological properties of synthesized Bi$_2$WO$_6$ samples. The evaluation of prepared photocatalyst for methyl orange degradation, Cr(VI) reduction under visible light and rhodamine B degradation under direct sunlight was carried out. The sample prepared by a solution combustion route, exhibited superior photocatalytic activities than that prepared by a traditional solid-state route.
