Abstract
Attention to catalysts continues to grow, because of their high efficiency range, as well as the unique properties they create in improving chemical and electrochemical reactions. 1 Specifically, nanostructured biomaterials and biocatalysts have received much attention. 2 Although wide applications have been reported for biomaterials and nanostructured catalysts, 3 monitoring and degradation of pollutants in water are also important applications. 4 This issue has become prominent due to the increase in the Earth’s temperature and water shortages in most of the countries of the world. 5 Pollutant monitoring provides useful information regarding the level of toxicity of water sources and supports decision-making to select the appropriate water treatment method. 6 On the other hand, biodegradation is a useful strategy to treat water and reuse limited water resources. 7 Choosing biocompatible catalysts can be a useful …
