abstract = "Urea-based graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is thermally exfoliated at 500 °C in the air
atmosphere, and nano-carbon nitride (n-C3N4) is obtained. While optical properties are assessed
using UV/Vis DR spectroscopy, structural and morphological parameters of two materials are
obtained using XRD, TEM, and FTIR. Flat-band potentials were determined from Mott-Schottky
plots, and combined with corresponding band-gap energies, to estimate conduction and valence
band potentials of both materials. Photocatalytic efficacy of both semiconductors in photocatalytic
degradation of three textile dyes under simulated solar light irradiation is compared, with the
conclusion that n-C3N4 expressed higher photocatalytic ability in the studied systems. Finally, in
order to provide reusability of the semiconductors in multiple consecutive photocatalytic cycles,
both photocatalysts were drop-coated on the jute-based post industrial waste. Reusability of juten-C3N4 material is probed in three consecutive photocatalytic cycles, and the obtained results
showed that this material can have a future in solving real-life environmental problems.",
