In this article, we present the synthesis of calcium sulfate nanoparticles (CaSO4 NPs) from waste chalk powder by the calcination method. These CaSO4 NPs were utilized for the construction of a mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride-calcium sulfate (mpg-C3N4-CaSO4) photocatalyst. Synthesized materials...
