Cover Story: Azo dyes in wastewater are persistent pollutants that are difficult to remove using conventional methods. This paper investigates a rapid aqueous microwave synthesis of monoclinic BiVO4 nanoparticles and their application in the visible-light-driven degradation of Acid Orange 7 in aqueous solution. The obtained BiVO4 shows an average crystallite size of 19 nm, a BET surface area of 7.5 m2 g−1 and a direct band gap of about 2.55 eV, which together support efficient photocatalytic performance. Under visible-light irradiation, up to 77% of Acid Orange 7 is degraded within 120 min, following pseudo-first-order kinetics. The material also exhibits a measurable antibacterial effect against Escherichia coli, indicating its potential for combined dye degradation and disinfection in wastewater treatment. View this paper
