Tailored TiO2 layers for the photocatalytic ozonation of cumylphenol, a refractory pollutant exerting hormonal activity.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Photocatalytic ozonation by Al-supported TiO(2) films is successfully applied to the mineralization of 4-cumylphenol, a recalcitrant endocrine disrupting compound. A possible reaction mechanism implying the intermediate formation of bisphenols is proposed on the grounds of HPLC-MS and FTIR analyses.

PHOTOCATALYTIC OZONATION FOR THE DEGRADATION OF TETRADIFON PESTICIDE ON Mn/TiO2 UNDER VISIBLE LIGHT
The photocatalytic activity of Mn doped TiO2 for the ozonation of tetradifon pesticide in aqueous solution was studied. Various loadings of catalysts Mn/TiO2 (1%, 2.5% and 5%) was prepared and characterized by standard analytical techniques. Photocatalyzed ozonation with 2.5% Mn/TiO2 yielded 100% degradation and mineralization of tetradifon in 2.0 h under basic pH conditions. The extent of degr...
متن کاملEnhanced removal of dichloroacetonitrile from drinking water by the combination of solar-photocatalysis and ozonation.
In this study, the photocatalytic ozonation process using either UV lamps with a wavelength close to a solar wavelength (UVsolar) or natural solar light was established to study the effects of the major operating parameters on the removal of a toxic disinfection by-product (DBP), dichloroacetonitrile (DCAN), from drinking water. Based on the test results of a bench system, the UVsolar/TiO2/O3 p...
متن کاملEfficient Immobilised TiO2 in Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) Membrane for Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue
Immobilised titanium dioxide (TiO2) in membrane structures has recently become attractive. This is due to the elimination of the separation step after the process of photocatalytic degradation. The efficiency of the TiO2 surface area exposed to UV light as the main important parameter needs to be considered. The immobilisation of TiO2 nanoparticles in the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane...

A simple, inexpensive and one-step synthesis route of Ag-TiO2 nanoparticles by arc discharge method isreported. The resulting nanoparticles were characterized using X-ray diffraction and scanning electronmicroscopy. X-ray diffraction patterns demonstrate dominance of rutile to anatase phase in TiO2 andformation of silver metal on TiO2 after arc discharge process. Scanning electron microscopy im...
متن کاملTiO2-BASED HETEROGENEOUS PHOTOCATALYTIC TREATMENT COMBINED WITH OZONATION FOR CARBENDAZIM DEGRADATION
The degradation of pesticide Carbendazim was investigated by combination of TiO2-based photocatalysis and ozonation. A batch annular photoreactor has been used for carrying out the combined process and the influence of TiO2 concentration, ozone dose and pH were investigated. The results showed that the removal rate increased with increase in ozone dosage upto 0.48 g/h and decreased above 1g/L o...
