Photocatalytic degradation of an organic dye, emerald green, on nano titanium dioxide (anatase 99.5%) at basic buffer pH of 7, 8 and 9 has been investigated. The effects of various operating parameters such as initial concentration of dye, catalyst dosage, bufferic pH and irradiation time on photocatalytic degradation have been studied in a photoreactor cell containing high pressure mercury lam...

We have studied the oxidation of submicron aqueous aerosols consisting of internal mixtures of sodium oleate (oleic acid proxy), sodium dodecyl sulfate, and inorganic salts by O3, NO3/N2O5, and OH. Experiments were performed using an aerosol flow tube and a continuous flow photochemical reaction chamber coupled to a chemical ionization mass spectrometer (CIMS). The CIMS was fitted with a heated...

The stability analysis of a simple two-component bimolecular reaction scheme involving a Hinshelwood-Langmuir law of nth-order [X/(1 + qX)n, n ~ 2], is presented. LE JOURNAL DE PHYSIQUE LETTRES TOME 38, 15 OCTOBRE 1977, 1 Classification Physics Abstracts 82.60 87.15 Recently [1, 2, 3] the authors have discussed the stability analysis of a simple bimolecular reaction scheme involving a first-ord...

Photocatalytic degradation of Acid Red 27 by nano ZnO has been investigated under different conditions. Optimum experimental conditions on catalyst amount, pH and dye concentration have been determined. Addition of some inorganic oxidizing species such as H2O2, K2S2O8 and KBrO3 up to a certain concentration increases the rate of degradation. The photodecolourisation and degradation kinetics are...

We have studied the unique reaction acceleration phenomenon in mixture and discussed limitations of Langmuir–Hinshelwood model for a solid-catalysed reaction.

We report herein a new sulfur-functionalized MXene Ti2C (Ti2CS2)-supported osmium-metal single-atom catalyst (SAC) Os1/Ti2CS2 with high low-temperature catalytic activity for CO oxidation. Using periodic density functional theory calculations, the most stable SAC, Os1/Ti2CS2, has been screened from series of group 8–11 transition metal SACs M1/Ti2CS2 (M = Fe, Co, Ni, Cu; Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag; Os, Ir,...

Kinetic studies of 2-chlorophenol photocatalytic degradation are carried out in a batch stirred built in quartz laboratory scale, using TiO2 as catalyst photoactived with ultraviolet light. Experimental design is performed using as independent variables or factors: catalyst concentration, catalyst calcinations temperature and initial concentration of 2-chlorophenol, to establish the best condit...

The selective oxidation of propylene to acrolein was investigated over a well-defined supported V2O5/Nb2O5 catalyst, containing a surface vanadia monolayer, with combined operando Raman/IR/MS, temperature programmed surface reaction (TPSR) spectroscopy and isotopically labeled reactants (O2 and C3D6). The dissociative chemisorption of propylene on the catalyst forms the surface allyl (H2CdCHCH2...
