RESUMO:

Due to the large number of industries and the excessive amount of pollutants they produce, the environment and humans are increasingly exposed to risks. One of the main agents in water pollution is the toxic dyes, produced mostly by the textile industries. Because they have complex structures, they are difficult to degrade, and advanced oxidative processes (POAs) are an efficient alternative in the degradation of these organic compounds. In this work, copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles were synthesized by microwave assisted hydrothermal method, with the addition of ethylenediamine surfactant. Synthesis of pure CuO and addition of 1, 2 and 3 ml of EDA were performed at 140 ° C for 30 min. The nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM-FEG) and UV-Vis (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. In order to verify the photocatalytic property, degradation tests of the methylene blue dye were carried out. The results of X-ray diffraction confirmed CuO formation, and all the samples showed photocatalytic activity, presenting higher photocatalytic efficiency as the amount of EDA increased.
