Abstract:The present study demonstrates the fabrication of heterogeneous ternary composite photocatalyst consisting of TiO2, kaolinite and cement (TKCe), which is essential to overcome the practical barriers that are inherent to currently available photocatalysts. TKCe is prepared via a cost-effective method, which involved the mechanical compression and thermal activation as a major fabrication steps. Clay-cement ratio primarily determines TKCe mechanical strength and photocatalytic efficiency where TKCe with the opti… Show more
