In this study, bismuth sulfoiodide (BiSI) was investigated as a visible-light-responsive photocatalyst for the abatement of diclofenac potassium from aqueous media. Orthorhombic bismuth sulfoiodide nanorods were synthesized via a solution-phase method and comprehensively characterized using multiple analytical techniques. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) confirmed the phase purity of crystalline BiSI, whereas UV\u2013vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV\u2013vis DRS) revealed strong visible-light absorption with an optical band gap of 1.65 eV. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images showed uniform nanorod morphology with an average width of 148 \u00b1 46 nm and an average length of 2.84 \u00b1 1.37 \u03bcm, indicating a high aspect ratio. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analysis confirmed the elemental composition of the material. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) confirmed the presence of Bi3+, S2\u2013, and I\u2013 ions, consistent with the BiSI lattice structure. The photocatalyst demonstrated excellent performance under visible-light irradiation, achieving 95.2% removal of the parent diclofenac potassium, as determined by UV\u2013vis spectroscopic analysis, within 120 min. The reaction was described by a pseudo-first-order Langmuir\u2013Hinshelwood model with an apparent rate constant of 2.999 \u00d7 10\u20132 min\u20131; however, the moderate fitting indicates that this model does not represent ideal pseudo-first-order kinetic behavior.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1021\/acsomega.6c05848","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,3]],"date-time":"2026-09-03T08:59:58Z","timestamp":1788425998000},"page":"54373-54388","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Visible-Light Photocatalytic\nAbatement of Diclofenac\nPotassium over Bismuth Sulfoiodide"],"prefix":"10.1021","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-6433-4492","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Sajid","family":"Ali","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Arkansas at Little Rock , , 2801 S.
