Degradation of Phenol By Photolysis Using N-doped TiO2 Catalyst

Abstract: Phenol (C6H5OH) is a common contaminant in wastewater. In certain concentrations, phenol can inhibit the activity of microorganisms and give adverse effects tohumanhealth, such as liver and kidney damage, perfect heart rate, and lower blood pressure. In this study, phenol was degraded with andwithoutN-doped TiO2under photolysis UV-light (10 Watts, λ = 365 nm) and visible-light (13 watt Philips, lux= 1400, λ = 465-640 nm)irradiation. The reductionof phenol concentrationwas measured by a UV-Vis spectrophotometer… Show more

“…UV-A light has a longer wavelength and higher energy than UV-C and visible light, enabling deeper penetration into the sample and increased interaction with organic compounds. UV-C light is primarily effective for degrading complex organic compounds, while organic compounds readily absorb UV light compared to visible light [16].…”

“…These techniques produce and use highly reactive radical like hydroxyl radical (OH•) that degrade the organic pollutants to carbon dioxide and water, which is more environmentally friendly and biodegradable. Degrade organic pollutants with photocatalytic process also known as photodegradation [3].…”

“…Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) are modern methods that can break down organic compounds into simpler molecules, this approach uses hydroxyl radicals (OH•) as an oxidizing agent that include photolysis (used chemical reaction where a chemical compound is broken by photons or light energy), ozonolysis (used organic chemical reaction where ozone/O 3 is employed to cleave the unsaturated bonds), and sonolysis (where used ultrasonic waves). This method which has previously been successful to degrade organic compounds such as the pesticides diazinon, dyes (Safni Safni et al, 2020), phenol (Safni Safni et al, 2019), paracetamol (Safni Safni et al, 2017), and rhodamine B and acid red 14 binary solutions with homogeneous Fenton reaction (Aliasgharlou et al, 2020). Moreover, this method has several advantages, such as a low cost, a short amount of time needed, and the ability to produce environmentally friendly compounds.…”
