An effective and simple route is developed for production of Dy2Ce2O7nanostructures by applying juice of Punica granatum as fuel and metal nitrates. Juice of Punica granatum has for the first time been exploited as a new fuel for simple synthesis of various structures of Dy2Ce2O7in terms of shape, photocatalytic efficiency and particle size at different time and temperature for production. TEM, Raman, DRS, XRD, FESEM and EDS are exploited for study and characterization the obtained nano-sized structures of Dy2Ce2O7. Photocatalytic efficiencies have been evaluated with destruction of erythrosine and methylene blue pollutants under visible illumination over the various structures of Dy2Ce2O7. Results clearly demonstrated that the nano-sized structures of Dy2Ce2O7obtained by application of juice of Punica granatum as new fuel at 450 °C for 4 h revealed excellent photocatalytic efficiency for the destruction of erythrosine and methylene blue pollutants.
