dc.description.abstract	The effectiveness of Sodium Bismuth Oxide nanoparticles as a photocatalyst was tested by applying it to the degradation of methylene blue. The nanoparticles had increased effectiveness with increased concentration and reaction time. However, when the particles were microwaved, there was not a significant change in the effectiveness of the nanoparticles. Therefore, these nanoparticles are not a good candidate for microwave induced photodynamic therapy, but they could be used on their own for other applications.
