Photodegradation of an azo dye using immobilized nanoparticles of TiO2 supported by natural porous mineral

Roles of titanium dioxide and ion-doped titanium dioxide on photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants (phenolic compounds and dyes) in aqueous solutions: A review

“…Shi et al [125] claimed that Ho-doped TiO 2 with a smaller crystallite size favored the shifting of photogenerated carriers to the surface of the photocatalysts and interaction with the reactants. Increased surface area, on the other hand, was Li et al [84] • Photocatalytic degradation rate constant, k 1 increased sharply from 0.025 min −1 to 0.060 min −1 while increasing the catalyst dosage from 0.006 to 0.04 g/10 mL.…”

A high-stability silica–clay composite: Synthesis, characterization and combination with TiO2 as a novel photocatalyst for Azo dye

“…It has been reported that TiO 2 -zeolite also shows high photocatalytic activities [11,14,[17][18][19]. Our previous results have shown that the PCD rates of TiO 2 -zeolite showed sharp decrease when the color removal of MO were more than 75% [19], while there is no obvious inflexions in the PCD curves of TSC. Reasons for such difference are stemmed from two major distinctions between the two catalysts.…”

Photocatalytic Performance of Carbon Monolith/TiO2Composite

“…Different materials can 2 Advances in Materials Science and Engineering be used as catalytic carrier for TiO 2 in the photocatalytic degradation process. Recently, TiO 2 has been combined with different carbon materials in simple mixtures or as composite materials in order to create more highly reactive photocatalysts [12][13][14][15][16]. A number of methods can be used for loading the TiO 2 particles on carbon material carrier.…”
