The journal retracts the article, “Experimental Study of CO2 Conversion into Methanol by Synthesized Photocatalyst (ZnFe2O4/TiO2) Using Visible Light as an Energy Source” [1] cited above.
Following publication, concerns were brought to the attention of the editorial office by the co-authors regarding overlap with a thesis which was subsequently published [2].
Adhering to our complaints procedure, an investigation was conducted that confirmed the overlap.
This retraction was approved by the Editor in Chief of the journal Catalysts.
All authors except the first author agreed to the retraction.
