The co-occurrence of congo red (CR) and hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) has presented a significant challenge to the remediation process. Particularly, the efficient elimination of those toxic dyes and Cr (VI) from wastewater by photocatalysis is still a challenge due to the unsatisfactory photocataly...
