The photocatalytic conversion of various nitroaromatic compounds in alcohols employing four different types of TiO(2) (Sachtleben Hombikat UV100 as anatase, Crystal Global R34 as rutile, Evonik-Degussa Aeroxide P25 as an anatase-rutile mixture, and home-made mesoporous anatase) has been studied. The effect of platinization of these different types of TiO(2) on the reaction sequence has also bee...

In this study, the photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange and Congo red dye was investigated inaqueous solution using C,N,S-tridoped SnO2 nanoparticles as a nano photocatalyst. The degradationwas carried out under different conditions including the photocatalyst amount, initial concentrationand pH of the solution. The results indicated that the degradation of methyl orange and Congo redwas...

In this study, Fe(3)O(4)/SiO(2)/TiO(2) photocatalyst was prepared via a sol-gel method, and Fe(3)O(4) particles were used as the core of the colloid. Diffraction peaks of Fe(3)O(4) crystals are not found by XRD characterization, indicating that Fe(3)O(4) particles are well encapsulated by SiO(2). FTIR characterization shows that diffraction peaks of Ti-O-Si chemical bonds become obvious when th...

background: there are great interests in photocatalytic oxidation of contaminants using titanium dioxide in recent years. the main objective of this research was to study photocatalytic disinfection of coliform bacteria as water microbial pollution index using tio2 and a low pressure uv lamp in a batch reactor. methods: the polluted water was prepared by adding a colony of coliform in raw water...

photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide to formaldehyde was investigated on four semiconductor photocatalysts (fes, fes/fes2, nio and tio2). the reaction was carried out in continues flow of co2 gas bubbled into the reactor. semiconductor photocatalysts were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and diffuse reflectance spectroscopic (drs) methods. sulfide ion was used as hole scavenger. t...

in this paper cufe2o4, nanocrystalline powders were prepared. also, the supported cu ferrite was obtained by impregnation of the supports with cu and fe nitrates solutions, for calcination temperature 450 ºc. the samples were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction (xrd) and fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir). in this investigation photocatalytic degradation of acid red 206 in wa...

in the present work, the znfe2o4 nanoparticle has been successfully synthesized. the obtained sample was characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), emission scanning electron microscopy (fe-sem) and its optical property was examined by uv-vis spectrophotometer. fe-sem revealed that the particle size of the znfe2o4 of about 47 nm was synthesized. the photocatalytic performance under uv-vis and vi...

Heterogeneous photocatalysis using titanium dioxide as catalyst is an attractive advanced oxidation process due to its high chemical stability, good performance and low cost. When immobilized in a supporting material, additional benefits are achieved in the treatment. The purpose of this study was to develop a simple protocol for impregnation of TiO2-P25 on borosilicate glass spheres and evalua...
