A Review: Titanium Dioxide Photocatalysis for Water Treatment
In recent years, semiconductor photocatalytic process has shown a great potential as a lowcost, environmental friendly and sustainable treatment technology to align with the“zero” waste scheme in the water/wastewater industry. The ability of this advanced oxidation technology has been widely demonstrated to remove persistent organic compounds and microorganisms in water. This paper presents the...
متن کاملBactericidal mode of titanium dioxide photocatalysis
When exposed to near-UV light, titanium dioxide (TiO2) exhibits a strong bactericidal activity. However, the killing mechanism(s) underlying the TiO2 photocatalytic reaction is not yet well understood. The aim of the present study is to investigate the cellular damage sites and their contribution to cell death. A sensitive approach using o-nitrophenol β-D-galactopyranoside (ONPG) as the probe a...
متن کاملInactivation of Phage MS2 by Iron-Aided Titanium Dioxide Photocatalysis.
Near-UV photocatalytic disinfection was accomplished in aqueous titanium dioxide suspensions. A level of inactivation of phage MS2 of 90% increased to 99.9% after 2 muM ferrous sulfate was added. Hydroxyl radical oxidation, with Fenton reaction enhancement, is suspected to be primarily responsible for the viral degradation observed.
متن کاملReactivity of Trapped and Accumulated Electrons in Titanium Dioxide Photocatalysis
Electrons, photogenerated in conduction bands (CB) and trapped in electron trap defects (Tids) in titanium dioxide (TiO2), play crucial roles in characteristic reductive reactions. This review summarizes the recent progress in the research on electron transfer in photo-excited TiO2. Particularly, the reactivity of electrons accumulated in CB and trapped at Tids on TiO2 is highlighted in the red...
متن کاملDegradation of Phenol in Water by Titanium Dioxide Photocatalysis
The photocatalytic degradation of phenol in a static-batch photoreactor, using a UV lamp as a light source and TiO 2 as a photocatalyst, was investigated. The effects of various parameters, such as photocatalyst dosage, initial substrate concentration, reaction pH and addition of oxidants, on the phenol degradation rate of TiO 2 photocatalysis were examined. The degradation rates proved to be s...
