Flammable gases produced by TiO2 nanoparticles under magnetic stirring in water

Abstract The friction between nanomaterials and Teflon magnetic stirring rods has recently drawn much attention for its role in dye degradation by dark. Presently the TiO 2 nanoparticles water been deliberately enhanced explored. As as 1.00 g were dispersed 50 mL 100 quartz glass reactor, which got gas-closed with about air a rod it. suspension reactor was magnetically stirred Flammable gases of 22.00 ppm CO, 2.45 CH 4 , 0.75 H surprisingly observed after h stirring. For reference, only 1.78 2.17 0.33 obtained same time without nanoparticles. Four simultaneously employed to further enhance stirring, 30.04 2.61 8.98 produced A mechanism catalytic producing flammable is established, mechanical energy absorbed through converted into chemical reduction CO O. This finding clearly demonstrates great potential nanostructured semiconductors utilize production gases.
