“…When the TiO 2 dosage was overdose, however, owing to an increase in the turbidity of the TiO 2 suspension, a shielding effect of excess particles occurred. Due to the decline of light penetration, TiO 2 particles far from the light source could not be efficiently excited [24,31]. Since not all the TiO 2 surface would be accessible for the MCB degradation, there was an upper plateau observed for the r 0 when the photocatalyst dosage was high.…”

“…Main methods use adsorption onto higharea activated carbon [15], or granular charcoal [16]. Photo-catalytic oxidation over TiO 2 photo-catalyst [17] has also been investigated. In the present paper, the removal of CP + is investigated in classical EC and in a more efficient phosphate-enhanced EC.…”

“…The field of photocatalysis has been excellently reviewed by Ameta et al [1,2]. Photocatalytic degradation of cetylpyridinium chloride over TiO 2 has been reported by Singhal et al [3]. Similar photocatalytic reaction of xylidine ponceau and orange-G dyes by ZnO powder has been reported by Sharma et al [4].…”
Water pollution due to effluents from dyes and printing industries poses a serious problem for aquatic life. Photocatalysis has attracted the attention of chemists all over the world because it is an efficient and ecofriendly process to combat the problem of water pollution. Photocatalytic bleaching of tolonium chloride on zirconium phosphate was carried out in presence of light. The progress of the reaction was monitored spectrophotometrically, and it follows pseudo first order kinetics. The effect of variation of different parameters, like concentration of tolonium chloride, pH, amount of semiconductor and light intensity on the rate of bleaching, was also studied. A tentative mechanism for the photocatalytic bleaching of tolonium chloride has been proposed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
