Abstract Nanometal oxides exhibit size-dependent properties that set them apart from their larger counterparts. Nanometal oxides can manipulate matter at the nanoscale and generate materials with distinct prop...erties and functions due to their unique properties. Nanomaterials have a considerable advantage due to their small size and high ratio of surface area to volume, which makes them suitable for photocatalysis and permits the breakdown of a variety of dyes. As a result of their photocatalytic activity, the use of zinc oxide nanoparticles (NPs) in environmental applications is gaining importance. The photocatalytic efficiency of ZnO NPs was evaluated by determining the progress of dye degradation, such as Methylene Blue (MB), Methyl Orange (MO), and Rhodamine B (RB). Multiple research studies have presented findings that support this specific area of inquiry. Various characteristics of ZnO NPs, such as their crystalline phase, particle size, and surface area, have a significant effect on their photocatalytic properties. Our study will demonstrate the effect of the NP sizes and others factors on dye degradation. In this case, we gathered data from various research projects for data analysis. Our analysis includes descriptive analysis, chi-square test, correlation, and one-way ANOVA Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) using those data. This study concludes the effect of different factors on dye degradation efficiency.show more
