Evaluation of the adsorption potential of titanium dioxide nanoparticles for arsenic removal

Arsenic removal by nanoparticles: a review

“…Nabi et al (2009) synthesized pure and iron-doped TiO 2 particles by the sol-gel method. The pure and iron-doped TiO 2 nanoparticles were in 100 % anatase crystalline phase with crystal sizes of 108 and 65 nm, which were revealed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis.…”

A mini-review on rare earth metal-doped TiO2 for photocatalytic remediation of wastewater

“…The TiO 2 (nanoparticles) photocatalyst is widely used for the degradation and mineralization of many organic pollutants to innocuous end products (Chong et al 2010;Huang et al 2008;Hung et al 2007;Stasinakis 2008;Thiruvenkatachari et al 2008). Moreover, TiO 2 photocatalyst also play a key role in the redox reactions of heavy metals to insoluble state with the subsequent recovery and removal from the industrial effluents (Balaji and Matsunaga 2002;Danish et al 2013;Nabi et al 2009). …”

Recent progress of arsenic adsorption on TiO 2 in the presence of coexisting ions: A review

“…1). Many efforts have attempted to synthesize effective TiO 2 -based materials including nanocrystalline TiO 2 particles (Dutta et al, 2004;Guo et al, 2013;Jegadeesan et al, 2010;Kocabas-Atakli and Yurum, 2013;Nabi et al, 2009;Pena et al, 2005;Xu and Meng, 2009), hydrous TiO 2 (Pirila et al, 2011;Sun et al, 2013;Xu et al, 2010), titanate nanotubes (Niu et al, 2009;Wu et al, 2013), granular TiO 2 (Bang et al, 2005;Cui et al, 2015a;Hu et al, 2015a;Yan et al, 2015), TiO 2 -impregnated chitosan beads (Miller and Zimmerman, 2010), and TiO 2 -coated sand (Nabi et al, 2009). The performances of those TiO 2 -based materials are summarized in Table 1.…”
