The X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) technology were used to characterize the Ce/BiVO</span><sub><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">4</span></sub><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> nanocomposites.

The results show that the Ce/BiVO</span><sub><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">4</span></sub><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> nanocomposite was a good photocatalyst under visible light. In 100 ml of 5 mg/L methylene orange solution, when the catalyst calcined at 673 K was 0.1 g, hydrogen peroxide was 0.5
