- Abstract
Environmental contamination is a major global concern. Organic dyes pose a significant threat as water pollutants, leading to the depletion of natural resources. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a type of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide, has gained considerable attention due to its impressive properties, such as stability, surface area, and tunable interlayer spacing. It has emerged as a promising material for both photocatalytic degradation and adsorption of harmful organic dyes. This article provides an overview of recent advancements in MoS2-based nanomaterials for the removal of organic dyes from solutions through adsorption and photocatalytic processes. The review delves into the fundamental properties of MoS2, explores various synthesis methods, and various modifications of the material to enhance its dye removal efficiency, and addresses potential challenges associated with its application in this field. Furthermore, the article discusses the prospects for improving MoS2-based materials for enhanced adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes.
