Abstract:Pollutants’ degradation has been a very important topic in environmental research. The present paper presents an approach to degrade atrazine, an environmentally harmful pesticide. Ti/TiO2 nanotube electrodes modified by porphyrins were prepared for photolysis (PH), photocatalysis (PC), and photoelectrocatalysis (PEC). Manganese- and free base porphyrin were studied, and it was possible to verify the kinetic model more suitable for each system. Unfortunately, Mn-porphyrins had an inhibitory effect on the ATZ d… Show more
