AB  - In this study, plant extract obtained from pods of Millettia pinnata plant 
      species was employed for nanosynthesis of Bi(2)O(3). The as-synthesized 
      semiconductor metal oxide nanoparticles were analyzed using various 
      characterization tools such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron 
      microscope (SEM), ultra violet-visible (UV-Vis), Fourier transform infrared 
      (FTIR), Zeta potential, Raman, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The 
      characterization results designate the formation of alpha and beta forms of Bi(2)O(3). 
      FESEM images demonstrate rod and flake-like nanostructures ranging from 25 to 
      70 nm. The green synthesized nanomaterial was found efficient for reduction of 
      4-nitro phenol (4-NP) and 4-nitro aniline (4-NA). However, it showed better 
      performance toward the reduction of 4-NA. Photocatalytic investigations 
      demonstrated that the green synthesized nanophotocatalyst was capable in 
      degrading Amido Black 10B (AB-10B) dye efficiently under visible light 
      illumination. 98.83% degradation of AB-10B dye was achieved within 120 min of 
      irradiation under optimum conditions of photocatalyst dose and dye concentration. 
      Active species trapping experiments revealed prominent role of superoxide 
      radicals (*O(2)(-)) while hydroxyl radicals (*OH) played considerable role in the 
      AB-10B photocatalytic degradation process. Moreover, the photostability and 
      reusability assessment study ascertained good performance of the catalyst 
      after four runs of successive cycles.
