Synthesize and characterize of Ag3VO4/TiO2 nanorods photocatalysts and its photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation

- Ag3VO4/TiO2 nanorods were prepared by sol-gel with hydrothermal method.
- Toluene removal efficiency was 70% in 4 h using the Ag3VO4/TiO2.
- Benzyl alcohol and benzaldehyde were intermediates, and partially mineralized.
