Particularities of trichloroethylene photocatalytic degradation over crystalline RbLaTa2O7 nanowire bundles grown by solid-state synthesis route

The steric effect of exfoliation agent for fabrication of layer niobium oxide nanosheet

“…16 In the 1980s, D-J phases were found and represented as the general formula as M[A n-1 B n O 3n+1 ] where M : alkali metal, A : alkaline or rare earth metal, B : transition metal, and n : the number of perovskite layers. 19 D-J-types such as KTiNbO 5 , 20 RbLaTa 2 O 7 , 21 CsBa 2 Ta 3 O 10 , 22 and especially, KCa 2 Nb 3 O 10 , have gained a lot of attention owing to the fabrication of layered perovskite nanosheets. [23][24][25][26] Potassium calcium niobate is also classified as a group of layered niobium oxides because of the existence of niobium in the component.…”

Tuning the band-gap and enhancing the trichloroethylene photocatalytic degradation activities of flower-like Ni-doped SnS2/SnO2 heterostructures by partial oxidation

“…Different intensification strategies such as structure and morphology improvement (size, crystallinity and shape), composition and support, defect engineering (doping, vacancies and disorders) and semiconductor heterostructures have been performed to maneuver the three basic photocatalysis steps toward an efficient charge kinetics process and photocatalytic activity, especially for TCE degradation [8][9][10][11]. Even though the majority of recent studies have been performed on photocatalytic oxidation of TCE in liquid phase [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20], various attempts have been evaluated toward more efficient semiconductor-based photocatalytic oxidation of TCE in air.…”

Light-Assisted Catalysis in Water and Indoor Air Cleaning: Challenges and Perspectives

“…In this context, photocatalytic processes have consistently offered smart, green, and eco-friendly scale-up methods for environmental remediation. Numerous photocatalysts have proven successful in achieving the mineralization of chlorinated pollutants, organic contaminants, dyes, or antibiotics [2][3][4][5][6]. An analysis of the existing literature reveals the need for research studies to focus on developing efficient photocatalysts capable of mineralizing contaminants into non-toxic CO 2 .…”
