Synthesis of Nano-Sized Titania Particles by Hydrolysis of Titanium Tetrachloride

Nano-sized titanium dioxide TiO2 powder was successfully prepared from its precursor titanium (IV) chloride by a simple and new wet chemical method. TiCl4 were used as precursor in hydrogen peroxide, H2O2 and ethanol. This solution was then peptized using nitric acid and heated under reflux at 80°C. Their physico-chemical properties were then characterized by transmission electron microscopy (T...

Characterisation of titanium tetrachloride and titanium sulfate flocculation in wastewater treatment.

Flocculation with titanium tetrachloride (TiCl(4)) and titanium sulfate (Ti(SO(4))(2)) was investigated in terms of different coagulant doses, pH, turbidity, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), UV-254, colour, zeta potential, particle size and molecular weight distribution. The two coagulants were compared with the commonly used coagulants such as ferric chloride (FeCl(3)) and aluminium sulfate (Al...
