Continuous photocatalytic set-up assisted with nano TiO2 plate for tannery wastewater treatment

Photocatalytic Oxidation of Pollutant Dyes in Wastewater by TiO2 and ZnO nano-materials – A Mini-review

In recent years, photocatalytico oxidation processes with ultra violet (UV) radiation and semiconductor photocatalyst like titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO) have gained immense research interest as an effective wastewater purification method because of its efficacy in decomposing and mineralising the hazardous organic pollutants as well as the opportunity of utilizing the solar UV an...

Control of Nano-Structure of Photocatalytic TiO2 Films by Oxygen Ion Assisted Glancing Angle Deposition

Nano Sized Ni/TiO2 @ NaX Zeolite with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity

Nickel doped TiO2nano particles (1% w/w) were prepared and immobilized on NaX zeolite and after characterization by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy used as photo catalyts for degradation of orange G. The X-ray diffraction patterns show that the supported TiO2 are crystallized in anatase form and the intensity of the zeolite peaks decreases with the incre...

Scope of biological treatment for composite tannery wastewater

Tannery wastewater is heavily polluted containing appreciable biodegradable matters as well as inorganic substances like chromium, sulphide, chloride etc. Thus the composite tannery wastewater appears to be incompatible for direct biological treatment .Wastewater emanated from various sub-processes of tannery operation showed variable characteristics and also differential treatability. The pres...

Photocatalytic application of TiO2/SiO2-based magnetic nanocomposite (Fe3O4@SiO2/TiO2) for reusing of textile wastewater

In this research we have developed a treatment method for textile wastewater by TiO2/SiO2-based magnetic nanocomposite. Textile wastewater includes a large variety of dyes and chemicals and needs treatments. This manuscript presents a facile method for removing dyes from the textile wastewater by using TiO2/SiO2-based nanocomposite (Fe3O<su...
