Photocatalytic degradation of phenol in water using TiO2 and ZnO.
Photocatalytic degradation of chemical pollutants in water was investigated using semiconductor oxide catalysts, zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) and phenol as the substrate. Influence of various parameters such as characteristics of the catalyst, irradiation time, substrate and catalyst concentrations, pH etc. has been studied and optimum conditions for the complete degradation of ...
متن کامل1 Role of activated carbon features on the photocatalytic degradation of phenol
In this work we have investigated the role of a porous carbon material used as photocatalyst itself, and catalyst support in a carbon/titania composite towards the photodegradation of phenol, and compared the results to that of bare titanium oxide. The immobilization of titania on an activated carbon provoked an acceleration of the degradation rate under UV irradiation, which is likely attribut...
متن کاملInfluence of Surface Properties of Activated Carbon on Photocatalytic Activity of TiO2 in 4-chlorophenol Degradation
This work shows the influence of specific surface area (BET) and surface pH of different activated carbons on the photocatalytic activity of UV-irradiated TiO2 in the 4-chlorophenol (4CP) photodegradation. Carbons were prepared from sawdust of Tabebuia Pentaphyla wood by physical activation with CO2 and by pyrolysis under N2 flow at temperatures from 450 up to 1000oC during 1h Chemical activati...
متن کاملPhotocatalytic degradation of an azo-dye on TiO2/activated carbon composite material.
A sequential adsorption/photocatalytic regeneration process to remove tartrazine, an azo-dye in aqueous solution, has been investigated. The aim ofthis work was to compare the effectiveness of an adsorbent/photocatalyst composite-TiO2 deposited onto activated carbon (AC) - and a simple mixture of powders of TiO2 and AC in same proportion. The composite was an innovative material as the photocat...
متن کاملOptimization of Photocatalytic Degradation of Phenol Using Simple Photocatalytic Reactor
The phenol photocatalytic degradation was investigated using heterogeneous catalyst Ag-doped ZnO nanowires under UV irradiation. Ag-ZnO nanowires were immobilized on borosilicate glass via a simple hydrothermal technique. Preliminary photodegradation studies were performed with Ag-ZnO nanowires at various concentrations of phenol (10 60 mg/L) at undiluted pH. After determination of the optimal ...
