Degradation of Diclofenac Sodium under Solar Light Irradiation by Photocatalytic Performance of ZnO and V2O5
Pharmaceutical pollutants are one of the most important issues of modern life and their negative effects on the environment and human health are undeniable. In the present work, the effectiveness of the photocatalytic process was studied by two semiconductors (ZnO and V2O5) in order to remove the Diclofenac Sodium completely under solar irradiation. The study examined the impact of parameters s...
متن کاملEnhancing Photocatalytic Activity of Nitrogen Doped TiO2 for Degradation of 4-Chlorophenol under Solar Light Irradiation
The nitrogen doped TiO2 as heterogeneous photocatalyst via sol-gel method were successfully synthesized. The physicochemical, morphological and textural characteristics of the obtained TiO2 samples were characterized by advanced analysis techniques. The photocatalytic activity of the samples were evaluated for degradation of 4-CP under solar irradiation. The as-synthesized photocatalysts were c...
متن کاملEnhanced photocatalytic activity of fish scale loaded TiO2 composites under solar light irradiation.
Fish scale (FS) loaded TiO2 composites were investigated as photocatalysts in degradation of Methyl Orange under solar light irradiation. Composites were prepared through sol-gel method by varying mass ratio of TiO2/FS at 90:10, 70:30 and 50:50, respectively. The catalysts prepared in this study were characterized by using XRD, SEM, FT-IR and nitrogen sorption. The effects of solar irradiation,...
متن کاملPhotocatalytic degradation of some organic dyes under solar light irradiation using TiO2 and ZnO nanoparticles
Nanoparticles of the ZnO and TiO2 were synthesized and the physicochemical properties of the compounds were characterized by IR, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD patterns of the ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles could be indexed to hexagonal and rutile phase, respectively. Aggregated nanoparticles of Z...
متن کاملFunctionalized nanostructures for enhanced photocatalytic performance under solar light
Photocatalytic hydrogen production from water has been considered to be one of the most promising solar-to-hydrogen conversion technologies. In the last decade, various functionalized nanostructures were designed to address the primary requirements for an efficient photocatalytic generation of hydrogen by using solar energy: visible-light activity, chemical stability, appropriate band-edge char...
