Boosting catalytic performance as a vital role for an electrochemical sensor for monitoring various hazardous nitro drugs. Herein, an inexpensive, facile, and eco-friendly construction of praseodymium tungstate decorated on three dimensional porous biocarbon (PrW/3D-PBC) for electrochemical determination of carcinogenic residue furazolidone (FZ). The nanostructured PrW nanoparticles were prepared by solvent evaporation from peroxo-tungstic acid and 3D-PBC was prepared from biomass precursor under the carbonization method. Furthermore, the composite of PrW decorated on 3D-PBC was prepared by an ultrasonic-assisted wet chemical approach. Besides, the composite characterization of crystalline, functional group, degree of carbonization, chemical states, and morphology were utilized by theXRD, FTIR, RAMAN, XPS, and FESEM analysis. These 3D porous carbon decorated PrW nanoparticles facilitate the electrochemical anchoring sites, surface area, and ease of diffusion layers towards the detection of hazardous nitro pollutant FZ by using CV analysis. The low LOD and high sensitivity were achieved by FZ determination through using LSV and DPV techniques. The practical capability of the PrW/3D-PBC/GCE sensor was determined by using aquatic samples to achieve a good recovery result. These results instigate that the PrW/3D-PBC will be an efficient electrocatalytic material for FZ sensor in environmental aquatic samples. Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
