Here, a Co-TiO<sub>2</sub>/Ag<sub>3</sub>PO<sub>4</sub> photocatalyst was prepared using a hydrothermal method combined with calcination.

These reaction rates are 137 and 3.4 times higher than those of pure TiO<sub>2</sub> and Ag<sub>3</sub>PO<sub>4</sub> samples, respectively. Thus, doping and heterojunctions significantly improved the photocatalytic performance of CTAP composites, primarily due to grain size reduction of TiO<sub>2</sub> after Co<sup>2+</sup> doping.
