Photocatalytic degradation of reactive black 5 using Photo-Fenton and ZnO nanoparticles under UV irradiation

Photocatalytic degradation of some organic dyes under solar light irradiation using TiO2 and ZnO nanoparticles

Nanoparticles of the ZnO and TiO2 were synthesized and the physicochemical properties of the compounds were characterized by IR, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD patterns of the ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles could be indexed to hexagonal and rutile phase, respectively. Aggregated nanoparticles of Z...

nanoparticles of the zno and tio2 were synthesized and the physicochemical properties of the compounds were characterized by ir, x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). the xrd patterns of the zno and tio2 nanoparticles could be indexed to hexagonal and rutile phase, respectively. aggregated nanoparticles of zno and tio2 with spher...

Mathematical modelling of an annular photocatalytic reactor for methylene blue degradation under UV light irradiation using rGO-ZnO hybrid

The application of heterogeneous photocatalysis in industrial scale has been hindered by a lack of simple mathematical models that can be easily applied to reactor design and scale-up. This work intends to use a simple mathematical model for predicting methylene blue (MB) degradation in a slurry-annular photocatalytic reactor using zinc oxide (ZnO) hybridized with reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-Z...

Photocatalytic Degradation of Humic Acid by Ag/ZnO Nanoparticles under UVC Irradiation from Aqueous Solutions

Introduction: Humic acid (HA) is one the original disinfection byproducts processors in water treatment. So, removing it is necessary before water chlorination. In the present study, photodegredation of humic acid in water using Ag/ZnO nano particle under UVc irradiation in batch system was investigated. Material and Methods: Photocatalytic study was carried out to evaluate the effect of UVc (...
