Solar photocatalytic oxidation and removal of arsenic from ground water
In a laboratory study, the effectiveness of combined tartrate and citrate as photocatalyst in solar photocatalytic oxidation and removal of arsenic from ground water was studied and a method, using a naturally occurring tartrate-citrate photocatalyst that can be used at the household level to treat small quantities of drinking water was developed. Kinetic tests performed with 250 μg/L As(III)-s...
متن کاملSolar-Enhanced Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water Treatment: Simultaneous Removal of Pathogens and Chemical Pollutants
The review explores the feasibility of simultaneous removal of pathogens and chemical pollutants by solar-enhanced advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). The AOPs are based on in-situ generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), most notably hydroxyl radicals •OH, that are capable of destroying both pollutant molecules and pathogen cells. The review presents evidence of simultaneous removal of pa...
متن کاملPhotocatalytic Removal of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa from Water Using Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles and UV Irradiation
Background: Titanium dioxide (TiO2)-mediated photocatalysis has been found to be an efficient method of water treatment and is capable of degrading a wide range of organic pollutants and microbial agents with high efficiency. The microorganism Pseudomonas aeruginosa is resistant to chemicals and UV irradiation. Bacteria which are resistant to UV-induced oxidative damage of the cell membrane are...
متن کاملPhotocatalytic Hydrogen Generation from Water using Solar Radiation
Solar photocatalytic water splitting is considered as a potential method for hydrogen production as both solar energy and water are renewable. The major task is the design of suitable photocatalysts, which can work efficiently under solar radiation, especially under visible light. The performance of the visible light active photocatalysts synthesized till date is far from satisfactory for any p...
متن کاملRemoval of Mercury and Arsenic Metal Pollutants from Water Using Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Synthesized from Lichen Sinensis Ramalina Extract
Background & objectives: The import of heavy metals into various sources of drinking water supply is one of the major problems of water quality, especially in industrial areas. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of mercury and arsenic metal pollutants to be removed from aqueous solutions using green oxide nanoparticles synthesized by green method. For this purpose, the extract...
